Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The research evidence supports a strong positive correlation between the amount of televised violence viewed and overt aggressive behaviour in children. Therefore, the most accurate conclusion is that the amount of televised violence predicts the likelihood of aggressive behaviour. This does not necessarily mean that viewing televised violence causes children to behave more aggressively or that the effect is limited to only children who are inherently aggressive. It also does not imply that aggressive children watch more television than nonaggressive children regardless of content.
