According to Jayasinghe and Ritson, which cultural theme can this behavior be assigned to?

"Alice and Jake sit in front of the TV and watch Saturday Night Live. Their dad Craig sits at the dining table just across the room and reads a newspaper. When the program breaks and the first ad appears, Alice and Jake start chatting with each other about their friends. As an advertisement by Coca Cola is shown, Craig starts whistling the well-known jingle. He looks at the TV screen for a mere second before returning to his newspaper. Alice and Jake are humorously surprised and start a conversation with their father, who replies but does not lift his eyes off the newspaper in front of him while remaining seated across the living room. When the ad section breaks, Alice and Jake return to watching their show."
