Washington, Nov 30 (Prensa Latina) TV, movie, videogames and Internet violence increases the risk of future aggressive behavior by the audience, Michigan University research warned on Friday.
University specialists examined 50 years of data, figures and statistics referring to human behavior in relation to the media.
Psychology Prof. Rowel Huesmann explained that 45 percent of TV programs worldwide demonstrate a type of violence and subliminally encourage its imitation.
Huesmann recalled that US children spend on the average at least three hours daily in front of the TV or on their computer connected to the Internet.
The Michigan University Department of Social Research found that to be true in 83 percent of the homes polled.
They concluded that in the long term, exposure to violent media could have the same bad effect on behavior as smoking does on health
