.................... is a non-projected audiovisual aids.

Exam Year(s)

MH SET - 2025, SET Exam - 2025,

Answer: A

The non-projected aid is the talking doll.

Non-projected aids are shown directly to the audience without any projector or screen, such as posters, charts, models, puppets and flannel graphs. A talking doll, a puppet whose voice is given by the presenter, is one of them.

Cinema, motion pictures and video all need a projector or screen to show moving images, so they are projected audio-visual aids.

................ is an electronic audio-visual medium which provides pictures with synchronized sound.

Exam Year(s)

MH SET - 2025, SET Exam - 2025,

Answer: D

The medium is television.

Television transmits moving pictures and synchronised sound electronically, which is exactly the description. It is an audio-visual mass medium that can show demonstrations of farm and home practices to large audiences.

Radio and a tape recorder provide sound only, so they are audio aids. An LCD projector displays images from a source such as a computer, but it is a projection device rather than a medium broadcasting pictures with synchronised sound.

Answer: A

The ABC of a poster is Attractive, Brief, Clear. A poster has to catch the eye at once, so it must be attractive; it has to be read in a few seconds, so it must be brief; and its message must be understood without explanation, so it must be clear.

The other options replace one of these with a different word. Attention, Brief, Clarity changes the first term, and Attractive, Bold, Clear and Attractive, Bold, Colourful put 'bold' or 'colourful' in place of the accepted terms. These are desirable qualities but they are not the standard ABC of poster as used in extension teaching.

Assertion (A) : Electronic media is a mass media.

Reason (R) : All mass media are not electronic media.
Codes :

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2012,

Answer: C

Both statements are correct. Electronic media such as radio, television and the internet reach large audiences at once, so electronic media is mass media. Mass media also include print media such as newspapers, magazines and books, which are not electronic.

So 'all mass media are not electronic media' is also true. The options calling either (A) or (R) wrong are therefore incorrect.

Which among the following are advertised under 'classified category' ?

I. Job vacancy
II. Matrimonial
III. Coffee powder
IV. Bicycles

Exam Year(s)

Answer: A

Classified advertisements are short advertisements arranged by subject under headings such as job vacancies, matrimonial, rentals and sale of used goods. Job vacancy and matrimonial notices are the standard classified categories. Coffee powder and bicycles are products of brands, which are advertised in display advertisements, so III and IV are not the classified category. The answer is I and II.

56.

Channels for participatory communication are

(a) Community Radio
(b) Participatory Video
(c) Street theatre
(d) Films

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2012,

Answer: A

Participatory communication needs two-way exchange in which the community takes part. Community radio, participatory video and street theatre involve the community in producing and discussing the message, so they are channels of it. Films are one-way media that the audience only watches, so (d) is left out. The answer is (a), (b) and (c). Participatory communication gives the community a part in making and discussing the message. A film is made by outsiders and watched by the audience, so it cannot involve the audience in the same way, and options that carry (d) are rejected.

Assertion (A) : Communication whether interpersonal or between social systems involves interface, the common boundary of two systems.

Reason (R) : The interface between families and other systems remain the same irrespective of their income.

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2012,

Answer: A

Communication, interpersonal or between social systems, involves an interface, the common boundary where the two systems meet, so (A) is correct. The reason is wrong, because the interface between a family and other systems changes with its income and resources, which decide how much access the family has. So (A) is correct but (R) is wrong. An interface is the common boundary where two systems meet, such as the family and the school. How easily a family can deal with the school, market or health services depends on its income, education and resources, which is why the interface does not remain the same.

Assertion (A) : Mass Communication is not appropriate for participatory Communication.

Reason (R) : Mass communication is largely monologue.

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2012,

Answer: C

Mass communication is largely a monologue, in which the message goes from the source to a large audience with little feedback, so (R) is correct. It is for this reason that it is not appropriate for participatory communication, which needs dialogue, so (A) is also correct. Both are correct. Mass media such as radio and television send a message in one direction to many people at once, with little chance for the audience to reply, and participatory communication needs two-way sharing. The reason is the cause of the assertion, so both are correct.

Assertion (A) : A good communicator is a good listener.

Reason (R) : Communication is a cyclic process.

Exam Year(s)

UGC NET - 2012,

Answer: A

A good communicator is a good listener, since listening to feedback shows whether the message was understood and lets the speaker adjust it. Communication is a cyclic process in which sender and receiver exchange roles and feedback returns to the sender. Both statements are correct, which is the keyed option A. A communicator who does not listen cannot know whether the message has reached the receiver, so listening is a part of good communication. Since the cycle runs from sender to receiver and back through feedback, the second statement is true, and the first follows from it.
