Heavy Consumptions of Television Dramas and the Effect of Choosing a Career

When choosing a profession, Gen Z and Millennials can be influenced by what they are viewing on television. Heavy consumption of certain television dramas may cultivate a false perception leading individuals into the wrong career for the wrong reasons.

Perception is mostly defined as a mental image one has of his/her interpretation of something through his/her own knowledge, experience, and beliefs. Career choices are made through our perception of the fields we are interested in. By using different channels of communication, we gain more knowledge about different fields of education. These articles show how students use media, such as television series, to gain knowledge on medical professions.
