Coverage of Women’s Health Issues in Kannada Magazines: A Case Study of Grihsobha
Abstrak
: Female health trends have drawn enormous importance in social science, as it undoubtedly reflects the prosperity of a nation. Researchers have brought out the poor state of health among women, especially in Asian countries. Despite various governmental and non-governmental interventions the situations remain far from satisfaction. Effective health communication is crucial to improve the health literacy among people. Print media have tremendous impact on the knowledge, attitude and practices related to health. The present research sought to understand how much importance is given to various health topics in Grihsobha, a women magazine published in Kannada language, especially when the entire world was shocked with the Covid-19 pandemic. The content analysis showed that even when the entire world was affected by the pandemic, fashion and entertainment was given more importance than health issues in women magazines
