A BRIEF REVIEW ON THE EFFECTS OF VIOLENT MEDIA ON YOUTHS

The main aim of this paper is to briefly review the existing body of knowledge related to youth violence and media.

Also, prevalence rates related to youth media usage, risk factors, and individual differences are given in the review. Then, some preventive suggestions based on the empirical findings are proposed to reduce the positive association between youth violence and media exposure. Finally, this brief review would be a useful starting point for further studies aiming to extend existing literature regarding youth violence and media exposure.
