Figure 1. Ratings for popular films in the analytic sample* and in the larger sampling frame by country, 2002–2009.

Figure 1

*analytic sample comprised the same 362 films that were popular across all four countries from 2002 to 2009; sampling frame comprised the top 100 films in each year (except n=50 for Brazil in 2002), based on country-specific box office earnings. Comparative analyses categorized films as rated for youth aged under 16 in Argentina (i.e., ATP or 13) and Brazil (i.e., L, 10, 12 or 14), under 17 in the United States (i.e., R), with youth-rated films in Mexico analyzed as both including and not including the rating as suitable for youth 15 and older (i.e., B15).
