Reception theoryReception theory is how the message is received by the receiver. There are three readings to reception theory: dominant, negotiated, and oppositional. The dominant part focuses more on the positives sides and praises the sender. The negotiated side is more in the middle which means the receiver may agree with some things and disagrees with others . Lastly, the oppositional side solely focuses negatively on the sender and disagrees with a lot of the things that the sender say and disagree with their mind set and dislike them as a person.

I feel that im more of the introverted side as I don't really get energy from being social at all. This would mean that i would like to watch more adventurous content such as traveling.
