| -Priming is a theory in which the activation of one thought may trigger related thoughts. The priming theory states that media images stimulate related thoughts in the minds of audience members.[1] For example, if a person were to see a cartoon character play a trick that inflicts pain on another character, it could make that person more likely to repeat the violent action in real life. |
