Summary |
This program explores the effect of television violence on children via a joint discussion between host Melvin Moore (a psychologist) and two professors currently collaborating on a project to study the ability of children to evaluate television program content: Dr. Aimee D. Leifer (Associate Professor at the Harvard Graduate School of Education) and Dr. Sheryl B. Graves (Professor of Psychology at New York University). Topics include why we still see a great deal of violence on television, in what ways television violence is different from 'real-life' violence, what can kids learn from watching violent programs, if violence watched translates to 'real life,' if there are racial differences that children learn on television, if there are differences between what boys and girls learn, and if we should try to program television in any particular way |
