Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Concept
In media and cultural studies, a concept is matched to the definition that identifies its central function or social role. Related terms must be distinguished by what they describe: interpretive structures, communities of admirers, ideological misrecognition, or recurring message classes.
A reliable matching method is to define each term independently and then combine the four one-to-one pairs; this avoids choosing a sequence from superficial word similarity.
Application
Concept | Meaning |
|---|---|
Frames | Social constructs that organize how people interpret events or issues. |
Fandom | An organized sub-culture formed around shared admiration and participation. |
False consciousness | The belief that people can be misled into accepting the prevailing ideology without critical awareness. |
Genre | A class of messages or works that share distinct characteristics. |
Cross-check and contrast
Frames concern interpretive organization; they are not themselves communities of admirers.
Fandom concerns a participating audience community; it is not a category of messages.
False consciousness concerns ideological misrecognition; it is not a socially constructed interpretive frame in this matching set.
Genre classifies messages or works by shared features; it does not name the audience organized around them.
Therefore, the complete matching is A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III.
