The influence of culture on portrayals of women in television commercials: a comparison between the United States and Japan
Article Abstract:
The effect of culture on portrayals of women in television advertisements is found to be similar in Japan and the US in many terms. Men are more likely to have working roles as high-level business executives and as blue-collar workers than women. In non-working roles, women tend to have a decorative role. However, the norms protecting the right roles for women are highly dissimilar in the two countries.
