psychological origin of needs which generate expectations of the mass media and other
sources which lead to differential patterns of exposure resulting in needs gratification
and other consequences perhaps unintended ones

certain types of media rather than the effects the media have on people? - ANS-they

ANS-people satisfy the most important needs first and then work their way up
What are both immediate and delayed gratifications? - ANS-immediate gratification-
when we want and expect our needs to be met right now
delayed gratification- A willingness to give up something now in return for something
later.

describe each of those 3 sources. - ANS-media content- interested in the actual
