Television and the Aggressive Child - A Cross-National Comparison

Informationen zum Autor L. Rowell Huesmann, Leonard D. Eron Zusammenfassung The research presented in this book, originally published in 1986, looks to pinpoint the psychological processes involved in the media violence-aggression relation. Expanding on earlier studies, the compilation of essays here delves deeply into aggression study and compares results about media influence across 5 countries. Cultural norms and programming differences are investigated as well as age and gender and other factors. What is offered overall is a psychological model in which TV violence is both a precursor and a consequence of aggression. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1.
