The chi square value of 168.564 which is X 2 , degree<br />
of freedom 4 at a low significance value (typically less than<br />
0.05) is checked in the chi square table. The result is 9.488<br />
and based on formular 1, we reject the null hypothesis.<br />
Therefore, entertainment television plays a significant role in<br />
shaping the social behaviour of teenagers.<br />

whether teenagers' exposure to entertainment television<br />
