The Relationship between the People Trust to the Television and Sense of Security

The medium of television is among the important arenas in which social trust plays an important role, since television can not survive without the trust of the audiences. The present study tries to investigate the relationship between the people trust to the television and sense of security. People evaluate their circumstances based on the information they receive. This is a field study performed on 400 Tehrani citizens as the statistical sample. The findings of the study demonstrated that the variable “Trust to the TV” is the most powerful one. The variable “Correctness of the News and TV programs” and “Neutrality of TV” filled the rest of places in terms of effectiveness.
