The Media Impact Project is a hub for collecting, developing and sharing approaches for measuring the impact of media, in order to better understand the role that media plays in changing knowledge, attitudes and behavior among individuals and communities.
As the media research and evaluation arm of The Norman Lear Center at the USC Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism, we study stories — in film, TV, documentaries, games, art and news — and their impact on audiences. And we help media makers, cultural change organizations and foundations understand audiences and how to engage them.
