Visual media shapes children's behaviors, attitudes and their perception of the world, and it is one of the most socializing tools. Thus, visual media has a significant effect on children's lives. It has positive aspects such as enriching the lives of children, changing unhealthy behaviors, disseminating education and knowledge, bringing national and spiritual values to children, encouraging tolerance, and reducing social differences. With a different point of view, visual media limits the child's imagination, school success and causes learning difficulties. Furthermore, it has also negative aspects including encouraging violent behavior, leading to the deterioration of moral values, reducing social-emotional sensitivities, facilitating effects on anxiety, depression and suicidal behaviors, suppressing local cultures and contributing to alienation. Although visual media including television, cinema, and the internet does not have a direct effect on children, they could affect children’s subconscious indirectly with subliminal messages. As a result, it may cause changes in their behaviors. Given the amount of time children spend with visual media, it has long-lasting negative effects on children. Since children are vulnerable to this issue, the relationship between children and visual media is an important issue that needs to be considered carefully. The aim of this review is to present the negative effects of subliminal messages in visual media on child health according to the current literature.
