35 5 V. The Write Up Write Up of Results In the prediction of going to the movie theater to cheer oneself up when one is down ( Movie Cheer Up ), a four-block hierarchical multiple regression analysis was conducted. Multicollinearity was not a serious concern, as all tolerances werer.56 and above. The analysis result indicates that predictors explain.7% of the total variance of Movie Cheer Up (F (, 50) =.6, p <.00). First, block, which included the Demographics of Age, Education, and Income, explained 6.7% of the total variance of Movie Cheer Up (F (, 59) = 8.66, p <.00). All demographics were significant unique predictors: Age (final Beta = -., p <.05), Education (final Beta = -.08, p <.05), and Income (final Beta = -., p <.05). As a result, we concluded that demographics do play a significant role in predicting Movie Cheer Up, including when controlling for all of the other independent variables in all four blocks. All these independent variables in block had negative significant unique relationships with Movie Cheer Up. Thus, this means that the older a person is, the more educated and the more their income, the less likely they are to go to a movie theater to watch a film to be cheered up, when all other variables in the full model are controlled for. Second, block, Movie Attraction (with items measuring attraction to film because of the director of the film, the stars of the film, and recency of the film release), explained an additional.% of the total variance of Movie Cheer Up (F (, 56) = 5.76, p =.00). Recency of the film release (final Beta =.76, p <.0) was the only significant unique predictor of Movie Cheer Up.

36 6 As a person s reliance on the recency of the film increases, Movie Cheer Up increases, when all other predictors in the full regression model are controlled for. The third block, Repeated Viewing, explained only an additional 0.5% of total variance of Movie Cheer Up (F (, 5) =.90, ns). There were no significant unique predictors for block. The fourth block, Movie Viewing Patterns, including frequency of viewing horror movies, comedy, action, and animated movies, explained an additional.% of total variance of Movie Cheer Up (F (, 50) =., ns). How often people view action had a nearly significant unique prediction (final Beta = -.00, a.05 < p <.0) that was negative. As action film viewing increases, Movie Cheer Up decreases, when all other predictors in the full regression model are controlled for. Overall, this analysis included four separate blocks of predictor variables that as a whole did contribute a significant amount of variance to the prediction of Movie Cheer Up, as indicated by the significant R for the total equation. Block (Demographics) and Block (Movie Attraction) both contributed a significant amount of variance to the prediction of Movie Cheer Up as indicated by significant R change figures for each block. Blocks and did not contribute a significant amount of variance to the prediction of Movie Cheer Up. Also, the Beta coefficients indicated that when controlling for the impact of all other variables in the final equation, there are four independent variables that maintained significant unique contributions toward Movie Cheer Up. This is indicated by the four significant final Betas. Greater tendency to go to the movie theater to cheer up when one is down is uniquely predicted by younger age, lower education, lower income, and being attracted to a film because of its recency.
