“…26 Film expertise and similar concepts such as film analyticity (Robinson, 1975), aesthetic fluency in film (Silvia & Berg, 2011), cineliteracy (British Film Institute, 1999), or film competence/education (e.g., Arbeitskreis Filmbildung, 2009, VisionKino) have been proposed, but there is little research that includes them. Two constructs-aesthetic fluency in film and film expertise-are described in more detail in the Method section and in the Appendices D and E, respectively.…”

Audiences' movie evaluations have often been explored as effects of experiencing movies. However, little attention has been paid to the evaluative process itself and its determinants before, during, and after movie exposure. Moreover, until recently, research on the subjective assessment of specific film features (e.g., story, photography) has played a less important role. Adding to this research, this dissertation introduces the idea of subjective movie evaluation criteria (SMEC) and describes the scale construction for their measurement and its validation process. Drawing on social cognition theories, SMEC can be defined as standards that viewers use for assessing the features of films and conceptualized as mental representations of-or attitudes towards-specific movie features guiding cognitive and affective information processing of movies and corresponding evaluative responses. Studies were conducted in five phases to develop and validate scales for measuring and examining the structure of SMEC. In Phase I, open-ended data were categorized and content validated via a modified structure formation technique and items were developed. Subsequently in Phase II, participants completed an online questionnaire including revised and pilottested items. Exploratory factor analyses were iteratively applied to explore the latent structure and to select items. The resulting 8-factor model was cross-validated with different samples in Phase III applying confirmatory factor analyses which yielded good fit indices, thereby supporting structural validity. In Phase IV, latent state-trait analyses were carried out to examine the reliability, occasion specificity, common consistency, and method specificity of the eight dimensions.
