The document discusses the effects of television violence on children. It finds that most American households have at least one TV, and many children have TVs in their bedrooms. On average, children watch 3-5 hours of TV per day, which contains a high level of violence. Television misleads children by showing violence as rewarded and without consequences. It can increase children's aggressiveness and fearfulness. The document recommends that parents monitor their children's viewing, limit screen time, and discuss what they watch to help counter the negative effects of media violence.

Effects of Tv Violence On Children
A presentation that we made on our research for the Academic Writing course. The research was about the effects that TV violence has on children and ways to reduce it. Have a look. And if you'd also need the research paper, contact me on my facebook account.
Television violence how effects on children
The document outlines the effects of television violence on child psychology. It notes that children watch an average of 4 hours of TV per day, which exposes them to violent content in 60% of programs. Research shows this can have psychological effects like increasing aggressive behavior. Examples of violent content shown include suicide, murder, and drug addiction. The document suggests remedies like monitoring what children watch, watching with them, and changing the channel during violent scenes.
Television violence and the effects on children
Children spend a significant amount of time watching television, which can negatively impact their development since they have difficulties distinguishing between reality and fiction at a young age. Television exposes children to about 25 acts of violence per hour in children's programming, and they may mimic such behaviors without fully understanding the consequences. While television can increase general knowledge by exposing children to global information, it can also promote unhealthy habits by portraying inappropriate or unrealistic behaviors as normal.
Television violence and violent behavior
This document discusses the relationship between television violence and violent behavior. It notes that most research has found exposure to television violence can influence viewers, especially children, by desensitizing them to violence, making them more fearful or aggressive, and potentially influencing them to see violence as an acceptable way to solve problems. However, some refute these effects, arguing children cannot distinguish between fiction and reality or that longitudinal studies have not found consistent results. The document aims to examine the impacts of television violence on viewers' wellbeing and behavior.
tv violence
Several studies and reports from organizations like the NAEYC, APA, and Kaiser Family Foundation found that the amount of violence depicted on television, especially in children's programming and cartoons, has significantly increased since the 1980s. On average, children's shows contain about 20 violent acts per hour and by elementary school, the average child has seen over 8,000 depictions of murder or violence on TV. Experiments show children who watch violent clips are more likely to exhibit aggressive behavior themselves afterwards. Long term studies link heavy television watching in teenagers to later aggression and violence. Violent media is considered a public health threat due to its effects on the brain and potential to influence violent behavior.
Media Violence
This document discusses media violence and its effects on children. It notes that children now spend more time watching television than in school, viewing over 200,000 acts of violence by age 18. Studies show that exposure to media violence can increase hostile feelings in children and cause them to imitate aggressive behaviors, sometimes resulting in injury or death. The document examines how televised violence can lead to these negative psychological and behavioral effects in young viewers.
Effects of television on children
Watching TV can have both positive and negative effects on children. It can expose them to new ideas and culture but excessive viewing has been linked to issues like obesity, lack of creativity, and increased aggressive behavior. Studies show that the average American child will see thousands of violent acts by age 18 from TV and high amounts of daily TV viewing in teenage boys correlates with more acts of violence later in life. It is important for parents to monitor TV time and encourage other activities that develop children in healthier ways.
School Violence Edu 290
School violence is a serious issue that affects all schools worldwide. It includes both physical and verbal acts of violence, and has evolved to include stabbings and shootings. Bullying is a major cause of school violence and can lead students to feel depressed, hated, and lonely. School violence has negative emotional and physical impacts on students and may cause some to drop out or change schools. While prevention is key, communities, schools, and governments are working on various initiatives and policies to address the problem.

Television and children
Parents should control their children's TV watching to some extent by limiting screen time and influencing what programs are watched. Young children benefit from parents being present to explain what is happening on TV and demonstrate that it should be used selectively. Limiting TV time allows children to discover their own interests through other activities and do homework without distraction. While TV can increase children's knowledge in some areas, excessive viewing may desensitize them to violence and cause other issues, so parental guidance is important.
Violence in the media
This document discusses violence in various media and its effects on children. It notes that excessive viewing of violent television programs and films can negatively impact children's sleep, behavior, and world views. Many popular animated shows, superhero movies, and video games contain graphic violence that children may imitate. However, the link between violent video games and real-life aggression is still unclear. The document examines ongoing debates around what levels of violence are appropriate for children in different forms of media.
The Impact Of Media Violence On Youth Powerpoint
The document discusses research on the impact of media violence on youth behavior. Studies have found that exposure to violence in media, like television and video games, can contribute to increased aggressive behavior over time in youth. One study of 820 youth found that violent media use predicted later violence and aggression, especially combined with family or community violence exposure. Researchers recommend media literacy education to help youth critically evaluate media messages and the impacts of violence. Parental control and monitoring of youth media exposure can also help reduce risks.
Effects Of Cartoon on children
Cartoons have both positive and negative effects on children's behavior and development. Positively, cartoons can help educate children and enhance creativity and imagination when they portray educational lessons. However, many cartoons also depict violence or unrealistic fantasies which children may try to imitate, potentially harming themselves or others. Studies show links between violent cartoon viewing and aggressive behaviors in children. Parents need to monitor and limit the types and amounts of cartoons their children watch to maximize benefits and reduce risks of negative impacts on development.

Survey on Media Violence
This survey of parents at a primary school in Croatia asked about their children's media consumption habits and their views on media violence. Most respondents reported their children spend 1-3 hours per day in front of screens, and watch mostly cartoons and sitcoms on TV. The majority believe there is a medium to large amount of violence on TV, and that this exposure can increase children's aggression. They also think school violence is influenced by media and restrict their children's TV viewing.
How tv affects children
The document discusses how TV can affect children. It notes that on average, children ages 8-18 spend nearly 6 hours per day watching TV or using computers. While some educational TV can be beneficial, too much TV can interfere with other activities and negatively impact children's health and behavior. Excessive TV watching has been linked to issues like obesity, aggression, and risky behaviors being modeled from violent or inappropriate content. The document recommends that parents monitor their children's TV time, set limits, and promote alternative activities to gain a balanced approach.
MOVIES ITS EFFECTS ON MIND.pptx
This document provides an overview of how movies can impact society and the mind. It discusses both the positive and negative effects of movies. Positively, movies can provide entertainment, social interaction, and showcase world cultures. However, movies can also negatively influence youth by promoting unhealthy behaviors like smoking, drinking, and violence. The document also explains how regular movie watching has been shown to boost well-being by providing focused mental stimulation and social engagement, while cautioning that movies containing obscene or terrorist content can harm the minds of youth. In conclusion, it suggests taking the good aspects of movies and avoiding the bad.
School Violence
The document summarizes the results of a survey on school violence conducted at West High School. Most students reported observing bullying/harassment incidents. Many students had been personally threatened or had property damaged by other students. While some violence occurs, most students feel it is not major and the administration is aware and trying to address it. Statistics provided show school violence and crimes against students are more common than reported.
Effect of cartoons on children
Cartoons are a primary source of entertainment for children. However, excessive cartoon watching can negatively impact children's psychological development and behavior. A study was conducted to analyze how cartoon characters shape children's behavior. Through questionnaires, most respondents agreed that cartoons can affect children mentally and physically, and cause them to prefer cartoons over physical activity. Both positive and negative effects of cartoons on children's thinking skills were found. It is important that parents educate themselves on appropriate cartoons and supervise their children's viewing.
8 ways to prevent school violence in schools
The document outlines 8 ways to prevent school violence: 1) Teach conflict resolution skills to help students resolve issues verbally rather than physically. 2) Enforce dress codes to prevent gang affiliations or harassment that could lead to violence. 3) Employ security personnel specifically trained to de-escalate situations before they become violent problems. 4) Require student photo IDs and identification systems to monitor who enters the school. 5) Use metal detectors to prevent weapons from being brought into the school. 6) Implement mentoring programs to give students positive role models for guidance. 7) Incorporate character education to develop students' good character. 8) Provide staff training to effectively implement new programs and ensure a positive school climate.
Social Media Impact On Children
Social media and marketing have significant psychological impacts on children and teens. Excessive exposure to ads, desire for brand names, and focus on appearance can lower self-esteem and promote unhealthy behaviors. Parents struggle to set limits in the face of intense marketing pressures. Schools and communities need to support parents by educating youth, restricting ads, and promoting critical thinking skills to resist undue influence.
Movies and its effects
Movies are a powerful vehicle for culture, education, leisure and propaganda according to Jawaharlal Nehru. They serve as both entertainment and inspiration for people, but some argue they have negative effects by promoting vulgarity, affecting lifestyle, and increasing crime rates. While movies influence society, individuals also have a responsibility for changing conditions they see as problematic.
Media, violence and influence on youth
This document discusses the negative influence of media on youth. It notes that media consumption has increased dramatically in recent decades due to advances like the internet and social media. The media portrays unrealistic standards of beauty, promotes substance abuse and violence, and makes youth self-conscious. Excessive media use also prevents youth from developing social skills and causes sleep deprivation. The document cites examples of youth committing violent acts after exposure to fictional media characters. It calls for increased parental guidance and education on media literacy to help youth think critically about media influences.
A survey- students
A survey was conducted of primary school students in Belica, Croatia about their media usage habits and perceptions of media violence. The majority of students spent 1-2 hours on Facebook per day and did not know all their Facebook friends. Most students' parents did not restrict or monitor their internet usage. YouTube and games were identified as the most used websites. Regarding media content, students preferred cartoons and soap operas to other genres. While most students felt there was too much violence in media, only about half thought this increased aggression. On average, students reported being exposed to 1-5 acts of media violence per day.
Media Violence And Aggression
This document summarizes research on the relationship between violent entertainment media (music, video games, TV) and aggression in adolescents. It finds that while other factors like environment and individual traits also influence aggression, exposure to violent media does appear to increase aggressive attitudes and behaviors in teens. The research showed this relationship even after accounting for other variables. Future work should explore ways to reduce violent media's effects, especially on young males.
The Affects of Television on Children
The document summarizes research on the effects of television on children's mental and social development. Studies have shown that increased television watching is correlated with attention issues like ADD in children. Young children have trouble distinguishing reality from television. Additionally, television viewing does not encourage natural play and social interaction that aids children's development. The document concludes that television should be age-appropriate and not replace other important activities in a child's life.

The Effects of Violence on Tv
1) Violence on TV can negatively impact children in several ways, including increasing aggressive behavior, fearfulness, and acceptance of violence as normal. Over 4,000 studies have found a correlation between TV violence and increased violent or aggressive behavior in children.
2) Certain types of media violence are more likely to influence children, such as violence that is rewarded or has no consequences. Cartoon violence portrayed in a funny or entertaining way can also impact children.
3) While media violence is a concern, not all media aimed at children is negative. Educational children's programming that teaches skills can actually benefit child development. It is important for parents to monitor children's media intake and discuss what they watch.

In a matter of seconds, most children can mimic a movie or TV character,
sing an advertising jingle, or give other examples of what they have learned from media. Sadly, these examples may include naming a popular brand of beer, eating junk, obsessive-compulsive buying, striking a “sexy” pose, or play fighting. Children only have to put a movie into the VCR, open a magazine, click on a Web site, or watch TV to experience all kinds of messages. It really is that easy.
Media offer entertainment, culture, news, sports, and education. They are an important part of our lives and have much to teach. But some of what they teach may not be what we want children to learn.
This lecture gives an overview of some of the messages media send young people that could be negative or harmful to their health. You will learn how you can teach your children to better understand the media messages they see and hear in print, over airwaves, on networks, or on-line and how to deal with it.

Session 4 domestic abuse
The document discusses bystander intervention for domestic abuse. It defines domestic abuse and honor-based violence, including types like female genital mutilation and forced marriage. There are 4 stages necessary for intervention: notice the event, interpret it as a problem, feel responsible to act, and have the skills to act. Signs of abuse can be subtle, like controlling behavior, or overt physical violence. Victims may feel stigma, shame, or fear bringing further abuse. Leaving an abusive relationship can be very difficult for practical, emotional, and safety reasons. Bystanders should intervene safely if they suspect domestic abuse and never pressure victims on decisions.
