Alienation, Aggression, and Sensation Seeking as Predictors of Adolescent Use of Violent Film, Computer, and Website Content.
Slater, Michael D.
Journal of Communication, v53 n1 p105-21 Mar 2003
Examines predictors of various types of self-reported use of violent media content by eighth graders. Indicates that gender, sensation-seeking, aggression, and frequency of Internet use had relatively strong contributions to explaining the use of violent media content. Notes that alienation from school and family also appeared to partially mediate effects of sensation seeking and aggression on use of violent Internet content. (PM)
