Kauzalnost medija i agresije

Abstract

Apstrakt:Posmatranje nasilja na različite načine i kroz raznovrsne vidove tehnologije, može dovesti do učenja i kasnijeg ispoljavanja takvog ponašanja kao i do širenja predrasuda o određenim grupama. Izloženost medijskom nasilju izaziva agresivno ponašanje, te je stoga verovatno da izraženo agresivne ličnosti, imaju visok nivo kontrole ka nasilnom medijskom sadržaju. Ovakva dvosmernost je široko razmatrana, pri čemu je proizvela mnogobrojna istraživanja sa različitim zaključnim osvrtima. Dvosmerni efekti postoje, što znači da se kreću u dvosmernim pravcima. Naš rad se bavi komparativnom analizom relevantne literature koja se tiče različitih posledica dečije izloženosti medijskom nasilju i subjekata koji su obuhvaćeni, kao i faktorima koji povećavaju nivo agresivnosti usled medijskog uticaja nasilnih sadržaja. Pošto percepcija ličnosti igra važnu ulogu u osnovnim efektima medijskog nasilja, pretpostavlja se da promena percepcije može redukovati ovakav efekat. Jedna od mogućih strategija koja otklanja negativne efekte medija jeste razvijanje medijske kompetentnosti koja omogućava pojedincu da se zaštiti od manipulacije medija, ali i da iskoristi nihove pozitivne aspekte. Kako bi uspeh strategije bio delotvoran, potrebno je upoznati se sa navikama mladih, učestalošću korišćenja medija, sadržajem medija kao i proveriti aktuelni nivo medijske kompetencije. Za navedene aspekte, kao sugestija u daljem istraživanju, korisno je primeniti drugačije pristupe sa naglašenim isticanjem konteksta istraživanja i njegovog sadržaja. Abstract:The observation and analysis of violence by means of different methods and various forms of technology can lead to adopting and subsequently manifesting such behavior, as well as to spreading prejudices towards certain groups. Exposure to media violence causes aggressive behaviour, and it is therefore likely that extremely aggressive personalities will have a high level of control concerning violent media content. Such two-way relationship has been widely discussed, thus triggering numerous studies with different conclusions. Two-way effects exist, which means that they are moving in two-way direction. Our paper deals with a comparative analysis of the relevant literature concerning the different consequences of children's exposure to media violence and the subjects involved, as well as the factors that enhance the level of aggressiveness due to exposure to violent media content. Since the perception of personality plays an important role in primary effects of media violence, it can be assumed that a change of perception can reduce such effects. One possible strategy that eliminates negative effects of the media is to gain media competence that allows the individual to be protected from media manipulation, but at the same time take advantage of the positive aspects of the same. In order to make the strategy more efficient, it is necessary to become familiar with the habits of the young people, the frequency of media usage, media content, as well as to check the current level of media competen...

The Relationship between the Frequency of Use of the Media, the Role of Peers and Adolescents' Agression in Elementary School

“…Although there are many differences in the definition of aggression, experts agree that aggression is a behaviour that harms or hurts another person (Jevtić & Vasić, 2015). If we consider aggressive behaviour amongst peers, then aggressive behaviour can be differentiated as: a) direct or open that can be divided into physical (hitting, destruction of things) or verbal (shouting, name-calling, threats, etc.…”
