Impact of Electronic Communication Media on Consumers
* Sandhya Rani ** Dr. Chhaya Shukla
Consumer opined that the influence of electronic media on their consumption pattern with respect to four different aspects namely food items, clothing, medicines, and accessories may be because of more use of television, radio, internet and mobile. Consumers use these media for the information, quick contact, entertainment, shopping and for the exposure. Hence electronic media has become more entertaining, knowledgeable, reliable and informative for the consumers. Today electronic media is a powerful source for an individual, no matter which status he belongs. This may be the desire of compressing what all is shown in media. Therefore, now-a-days consumer decision making is been heavily influenced by the electronic media.
ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTIONRapid technological advance during past few years have changed the pace of goods and services industry. Economic integration within and across the countries, distribution, ad-vance in telecommunication and the growth of the internet and wireless communication technologies are dramatically changing the structure and nature of consumer markets. In the last century, a revolution in telecommunications has greatly altered communication by providing new media for long distance communication. Modern communication me-dia now allow for intense long-distance exchanges between larger numbers of people (many-to-many communication via e-mail, Internet forums, and teleportation). On the other hand, many traditional broadcast media and mass media favour one-to-many communication (television, cinema, ra-dio, newspaper, magazines, and also facebook).
Communication has opened a new way in transfer of knowl-edge. The real role of communication technology is to com-municate and facilitate acceptance of innovation thus assist-ing in the mobilization of people through the transformation of attitudes and values. Communication technology has widespread physical, structural and cultural implications for a given society. Amongst the various communication media, the mass media like internet, radio, television etc. play an impor-tant role in creating awareness, in national development etc. Radio and television is the most easiest and important me-dium of mass media. The message given by this can be easily and quickly understood by all the type of people (Mashelkar, 2004). Communication technologies prove that with proper support and encouragement we can bring about a directional change that can eventually benefit the humanity at large.
Electronic media particularly, television and radio, have be-come a significant social phenomena in every developed and developing society. They play a vital role in influencing the attitudes and behaviours of the consumers. In the age of ex-plosion, the media of mass communication have becomes far more important than ever before. It is through the radio, televi-sion, internet and mobile, that almost every piece of crucially needed information is disseminated in society.
Media technology has made communication increasingly easier as time has passed throughout history. The internet is arguably one of the most effective tools in media for com-
munication. Tools such as e-mail, Skype, Facebook etc., have brought people closer together and created new online communities. In a large consumer-driven society, electronic media (such as television) and print media (such as news-papers) are important for distributing advertisement media. More technologically advanced societies have access to goods and services through newer media than less techno-logically advanced societies.
Today, students are encouraged to use media tools in school or college and are expected to have a general understanding of the various technologies available. The probable reason may be that the younger age group in today’s world is most exposed to media; they are also immediate reactors and as television is a media which provides visuals along with the audio facility and has greater impact on minds of youngster as they strongly believe in what they see. As the media (medium) for the masses it helps them get information about a lot of things and also to form opinions and make judgment regard-ing so many issues. It is the media which keeps the people updated and informed about what’s happening around them and the world. Everyone can draw something from it. Keeping this in view the present study was fabricated with the follow-ing objectives:
Ø To find out the media use behavior of the post graduate students of G.B.Pant University of Agriculture & Technol-ogy, Pantnagar.
Ø To identify the perception of the respondents in terms of advantages and limitation regarding media use.

Pant University of Agriculture & Technology, Pantnagar pur-suing post graduation. Data for this study was gathered by primary data collection through survey.
