Answer 1

Yes , ofcourse I believe that there is a direct correlation between violence in the mass media and violence in society. In today's world , everyone is following the mass media in terms of food ,fashion etc. Imitating what is shown in the media has become a craze for the people . They don't even know what they are doing but they will try there beat to showcase it to others through technology .

Violenve is increasing day by day in the society . People are using different unimaginable methods for violence and these ideas they get from the media . A full flow chart of the procedure is shown in the media . They understand it and work on it and conduct it in reality .

The article which I read is - The role of media violence on violent behaviour . In this cross- sectional longitudinal approach is used for observing the impact of violence in mass media on society. Yes ,the method is valid and reliable as it captures the relevant data in relation to causative factors among young teenagers , mid age adults , some of the reasons such as psychological factors , financial factors etc .
