The Effect of Realistic Versus Imaginary Aggressive Models of Children's Interpersonal Play

Hapkiewicz, Walter G.; Stone, Robert D.

Child Study Journal, 4, 2, 47-58, 74

One hundred eighty elementary school children were randomly assigned to same sex pairs and randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups: real-life aggressive film, aggressive cartoon, or nonaggressive film. Results reveal that boys who viewed the realistic aggressive film were significantly more aggressive in play than boys who viewed the other films. (CS)
