Abstract

Mentalities appear primarily in the social field because opinion, belief and prejudice are related to the individual's psychological behavior. Subsequently, they condition the perception of reality and determine the social behavior of individuals.Mind-oriented perception is directed, stereotyped, contagious, striking a certain schematism and convenience.

The attitudes most influenced by mentalities are those that guide people and social groups towards actions specific to the societies they live in. Actions relating to the preservation and development of economic, political and social structures but at the same time have strong resonances on the collective mind.

The media is a general denomination of all mass media. These means are varied: the press or the electronic means of information (television, radio, computer networks). Therefore, the media is the best way of manipulating individuals by repeatedly presenting ideas, principles, opinions, etc.
