Children, teens and adults today are
flooded with electronic media. From iPads to iPhones and Xbox to PlayStation,
we all have some sort of electronic media with us at some point during the day.
Either it be a smartphone or taking time to play some video games on the Xbox.
But are violent video games influencing violent behaviour?
Over time violent video games have
been accused of influencing violent behaviour on young people and that they are
linked to aggressive behaviour, but are they really the cause? Multiple studies
have been conducted most discussing that yes, violent video games influence
violent behaviour. Reasons ranging from the fact that video games reward
violent behaviour, studies showing that children who play violent games can
display aggressive behaviour and thoughts and that video games are known for
their interactive nature so game visuals can also affect game play and its
effects. (The Positive and Negative Effects of Video
Games, n.d.)
Good use of the images used to put emphasis on how violent games are causing young people to become more aggressive.
