SEEING IS PLAYING OUT: VIOLENCE ON TV CAUSE VIOLENCE IN A CHILD’S BEHAVIOR

Abstract

Television has become a significant component of children's activities. Violence on television and its influence on  children's behavior is quite high.  Occasionally, watching a single violent program might exacerbate aggressive  behavior. Children who struggle with emotional, behavioral, learning, or impulse control issues may be especially  susceptible to the effect of television violence. The effect of television violence on a child's behavior may manifest  instantly or years later. The data was collected from school children's through the simple random sampling. The  findings of the study show that violence in media affects children's. Children who see a lot of television violence  develop an increased capacity for aggression. This study investigates the media violence effects on children's and  further research may be conducted on media violence effects on youth.
