| Description | is exploratory study draws upon data from a 2014 survey of the Czech adult population, focusing on di erences between traditional and convergent domestic audiences of lm and TV. Employing statistical methods of hierarchical cluster analysis and multinomial logistic regression, this empiri- cal paper considers traditional and convergent modes of content consumption, various forms of the curation of content, the viewers’ attitudes to content, socio-demographic variables, and culture in general. On this basis, an evidence-based typology of Czech domestic audiences is formulated, sug- gesting four types of lm and TV viewers: traditional passive audiences, traditional engaged audi- ences, convergent passive audiences and convergent engaged audiences. Consequently, the study looks for cultural and socio-demographic predictors of the resulting types of audiences. |
