Effect of media content and media use habits on aggressive behaviors in the adolescents

Abstract

Objective: This
study aims to assess the effect of media content and media use habits on
aggression in adolescents.

Methods: This
descriptive study was conducted between December 28, 2015 and January 7, 2016.
The study sample consisted of 406 (66% male, 44% female, mean age: 15.16 ± 1.56
years) students who were registered in two schools in the provincial center of
Konya, Turkey during the 2015-2016 academic year.

Results: Surveyed aggression
scores were higher in students who were frequently exposed to violent media (p < 0.001). The aggression scores
were positively correlated with viewing television, DVDs, films/movies, playing
computer/console games, using the Internet, listening to music, playing games
on mobile phones, and total screen time and negatively correlated with
participating in sports and reading newspapers and books.







Conclusion: Health
professionals should provide parents, educators, and children with information
and advice on the attentive use of media
and the negative health effects related to its uncontrolled use.
