Articles, Papers &
Chapters
At the moment, my research focuses
mainly on children's television and youth audiences, issues
relating to the understanding and promotion of media literacy,
notions of 'representation' of various social groups (especially
children) in the media, gendered
readerships of media texts and the advertising industry.
