• The Use of Media in Media Psychology (2016, background): “…but they are used in some areas where multiple messages are relatively easy to sample, and where there is a standardized metric for evaluation of messages; for example, predicting Nielson ratings for television shows (e.g., Kanazawa & Funk, 2001; reviews in Webster, Phalen, & Lichty, 2006).”
• On the Edge of Your Seat: Demand for Football on Television and the Uncertainty of Outcome Hypothesis (2006, unknown): “Two previous American studies, Hausman and Leonard (1997) and Kanazawa and Funk (2001) both look into the determinants of viewership with a focus on the effects of superstars and race, respectively, but neither investigate the effect of outcome uncertainty on audience size.”
