“…Only a small fraction of the research has assessed longitudinal effects (e.g., Ferguson, Garza, Jerabeck, Ramos, & Galindo, ; Möller & Krahé, ). Furthermore, the limited longitudinal work on this topic has been conducted with adolescents or children (e.g., Adachi & Willoughby, ; Ferguson, Garza, et al., ; Ferguson, Ivory, & Beaver, ; Willoughby, Adachi, & Good, ) rather than young adults, even though video game play is highly prevalent among young adults (e.g., Lenhart, Jones, & Macgill, ). Research is needed, therefore, to examine the longitudinal link between video game play and aggression during the developmental period of young adulthood.…”

The longitudinal association between competitive video game play and aggression among young adults and adolescents was examined. Young adults (N = 1,132; M = 19 years) were surveyed annually over 4 years about their video game play and aggression, and data from a 4-year longitudinal study of adolescents (N = 1,492; M = 13 years) was reanalyzed. The results demonstrated a longitudinal association between competitive video game play and aggressive behavior among both age groups. In addition, competitive video game play predicted higher levels of aggressive affect over time, which, in turn, predicted higher levels of aggressive behavior over time, suggesting that aggressive affect was a mechanism of this link. These findings highlight the importance of investigating competitive elements of video game play that may predict aggression over time.

“…In some cases, such as the influence of violent media [1] and media depicting sexualized content [2]—influences appear to be minimal. In other areas such as sleep disturbances [3], sedentary behavior [4] or antisocial behavior [5, 6], correlations appear to exist, although causality can be difficult to determine.…”

“…This development calls for an investigation of the origin of individual differences in online media use, especially as all previous studies in this area focused on clinical samples and on problematic or pathological internet use [5, 6, 8–10] or were based on small sample sizes [11]. …”

“…Genetic mediation of the association between media use and later adult outcomes has been demonstrated in two independent samples [5, 6] both of which focussed on television viewing and later adult criminal or antisocial behavior. Together, these works suggest that unmeasured genetic factors can account for the observed associations between media use and behavioral outcomes.…”

Personalized Media: A Genetically Informative Investigation of Individual Differences in Online Media Use

et al. 2017

Online media use has become an increasingly important behavioral domain over the past decade. However, studies into the etiology of individual differences in media use have focused primarily on pathological use. Here, for the first time, we test the genetic influences on online media use in a UK representative sample of 16 year old twins, who were assessed on time spent on educational (N = 2,585 twin pairs) and entertainment websites (N = 2,614 twin pairs), time spent gaming online (N = 2,635 twin pairs), and Facebook use (N = 4,333 twin pairs). Heritability was substantial for all forms of online media use, ranging from 34% for educational sites to 37% for entertainment sites and 39% for gaming. Furthermore, genetics accounted for 24% of the variance in Facebook use. Our results support an active model of the environment, where young people choose their online engagements in line with their genetic propensities.

This article addresses the question: What is the explanatory power of the theoretical constructs ‘parenting style’ and ‘parent-child relationship’ for understanding violence among teenage girls? Using a sequential mixed-methods design, we combined data from different sources (interviews and questionnaires) analysed by different methods (grounded theory and correspondence analysis). Within this mixed-methods design, we compared the results of the qualitative analysis of interviews with violence-orientated girls with the results of the correspondence analysis of the cross-sectional survey (n= 243, mean age= 15.2, SD = 1,91). There is a strong relationship between the form of violence applied by the girls and the characteristics of the family dynamics. The utilization of different theoretical constructs (i.e., parenting style and parent-child relationship) reveals these dynamics and enables theoretical reflection on this subject. Zusammenfassung Im Mittelpunkt dieses Artikels steht die Frage nach dem Erklärungsgehalt der theoretischen Konstrukte Erziehungsverhalten und Beziehungsdynamik zwischen Eltern und Heranwachsenden für die Gewaltentwicklung weiblicher Jugendlicher. Über ein sequenzielles mixed-methods-Design werden unterschiedliche Datenquellen (Interviews und Fragebogen) und Analysemethoden (grounded theory und Korrespondenzanalyse)verbunden. Im Rahmen des gewählten mixedmethods-Designs werden die Ergebnisse aus der Analyse von Interviews mit gewaltorientierten Mädchen mit den korrespondenzanalytischen Einsichten aus einer Fragebogenstudie verglichen (n=243, Altersdurchschnitt = 15.2, SD = 1,91). Die Ergebnisse aus den Interviews und den Fragebogendaten zeigen eine hohe Heterogenität in der Art des Zusammenlebens von Familien Gewalt ausübender Mädchen. Es besteht ein starker Zusammenhang zwischen dem individuellen Gewalthandeln der untersuchten Mädchen und der spezifischen Dynamik des familiären Zusammenlebens. Der Einsatz unterschiedlicher theoretischer Konstrukte (Erziehungsverhalten und Beziehungsdynamik zwischen Eltern und Heranwachsenden) macht diese Dynamiken sichtbar und theoretisch reflektierbar.
