Reading about the impact of television on promoting violent behavior in children

Abstract

Immersion in the world of media has raised concerns among psychologists, educators, and sociologists about the negative effects on children's behavior and mental and psychological development. This is especially true of television, as the most important communication and media innovation, with its diverse content and high ability to attract and dazzle. Given the importance of this topic, this study seeks to raise the issue of the relationship between violent scenes shown on television and violent behavior in children through an analytical approach that examines the nature of television violence and explains the role of television in promoting aggressive behavior in children.
