L.A. Stories: Aggression in Preschoolers' Spontaneous Narratives after the Riots of 1992.
Farver, Jo Ann M.; Frosch, Dominick L.
Child Development, v67 n1 p19-32 Feb 1996
Compared 64 inner-city Los Angeles preschoolers' spontaneous story narratives, recorded immediately after the 1992 riots, with narratives told by a matched comparison group of 128 preschoolers living in other cities. Found that children with direct exposure to the riots told more narratives with aggressive thematic content than did the comparison group children. (MDM)
