Abstract

Ovaj rad istražuje televizijske reality show programe kao forme društvenih eksperimenata,
produbljujući razumijevanje njihovih različitih aspekata kroz sedam detaljno razrađenih
poglavlja. Autorica se u početnim poglavljima bavi epistemologijom reality showa,
povijesnim razvojem televizijskog žanra i etičkim dilemama koje prate reality emisije,
uključujući pitanja privatnosti i regulativu koje štite sudionike.
U sljedećim poglavljima u radu se analiziraju sociokulturni učinci, istražuju njihov psihološki
i sociološki utjecaj na gledatelje i sudionike, kao i njihovu ulogu kao društvenog eksperimenta
s naglaskom na sklad između zabave, komercijalnosti i društvene odgovornosti. K tome u
radu se također istražuje ulogu tehnoloških inovacija u oblikovanju reality showa,
predviđajući buduće trendove u integraciji tehnologije.
Analizom sadržaja popularnog reality showa Zadruga, autorica razotkriva i propituje složene
dinamike koje su uključene u proizvodnju ovakvih emisija.
Završno poglavlje predstavlja uvide dobivene kroz metodološko istraživanje fokus grupe i
analize sadržaja sa sudionicima nudeći dublje razumijevanje reality show programa kao
društvenog eksperimenta. U završnom dijelu rada naglašena je multidimenzionalna i složena
priroda televizijskog reality show programa kao društvenog fenomena.
