“…TV was about a hand length (around 600–800 mm). This figure is greater than the viewing distances (about 350–500 mm) for various mobile devices ( e.g ., notebook, electronic‐paper display) found in many studies (Kato et al ., Cesar et al ., and Shieh and Lee) A possible reason is that the experimental task in the present study was TV watching, while the other studies employed a text‐reading task. Text reading usually demands a shorter viewing distance because alphanumeric information is smaller and less discriminable.…”

This study explored the effect of TV size, light source, and ambient illumination on the preferred viewing distance of portable liquid‐crystal‐display televisions. Results showed that the mean preferred viewing distance was 1389 mm. TV size had significant effects on preferred viewing distance. The larger the screen size, the greater the preferred viewing distance, at around 6.7–14.7 times the width of the screen (W). Light sources revealed no significant effect on preferred viewing distance. The effect of ambient illumination on preferred viewing distance was significant. The higher the ambient illumination was, the longer the preferred viewing distance.

“…However, a more advanced viewing model allows viewers to read and respond to user comments on one screen (e.g. smartphone, tablet PC) and watch the media content on a separate TV screen (Cesar et al, 2010). In particular, the second-screen interface is a fast-growing trend in the social TV industry, with 88% of smartphone and tablet owners in the United States reporting that they use mobile devices while watching TV (Nielsen, 2018).…”

As a combination of television viewing and social media use, social TV epitomizes the intersection of mass communication and interpersonal communication. However, it remains unknown how such a novel format of media experience influences the agenda-setting effects. A lab experiment ( N = 120) examined (a) how user-to-user interactions in social TV (i.e. real-time comments from virtual co-viewers) affect the agenda-setting process and (b) how such effect is moderated by different interface types (e.g. all-in-one screen vs a second screen). Results suggest that participants who watched a news clip that featured many (vs few) comments from virtual co-viewers perceived the issue to be more important, but such effect was at work only when user comments were viewed on the second screen. In addition, exposure to many (vs few) comments decreased participants’ satisfaction with social TV and their intention to use social TV in the future.
