Book Details
Table of Contents
Setting the stage: why this book is needed
A short history of the concept of effects: the people who raised concerns about the media's putative effect on society
The epistemology of media effects: the way different scholars view the world in which they live often predicts the initial approach they take to doing research
The social scientific "theory" that never quite fit: why the media violence/social aggression theory isn't compatible with the rest of behavioral science theory (or with common sense)
Is it just science? Or is it ideology as well?
The world according to causationists: what the world would be like if the causationists were right
The biggest cultural variable of all: the Child Careful! and watch out for the children
The role of psychopathology in the media violence/aggression equation: a return to psychological and cultural conditionals as boundaries for assessing media effects
The attempt to make an ideology a science: when well-meaning people try to "science-ize" an ideology, confusion and foggy thinking reign
To legislate or not to legislate against media violence: what policy makers need to know
