title = {Handbook of Media Use},
year = {2026},
note = {This handbook offers a comprehensive overview of the subjects and
theories of media use research. In 37 contributions, the questions and
subjects of the discipline are presented, the current state of
research is analysed and an outlook on open questions is given. The
contributions thus provide a systematic approach to the state of
research on each topic from a communication science perspective. The
handbook is divided into four parts: (1) the foundations of media use,
(2) questions of media choice and attraction, (3) specific phenomena
of media experiences and processes, and (4) the most important
contexts of media use. Modern media effects theories can no longer
forego analysing media experiences and processes. The handbook
therefore examines these phenomena before and during media use in
detail. The handbook’s target readership is the broad specialist
audience of communication science and its related subjects, such as
sociology, psychology, political science, educational science as well
as advanced students of these disciplines.},
