C. Practice-
1.Media and Anti- & Pro-social behavior:
Talk to the children about the questionnaire that took place last
year, which was about the effects of video games and the news. Explain
the finding's of the questionnaire i.e boys think video games do have
an effect on your behavior for example, if you don't win a certain
game you feel cross or annoyed. Secondly explain to the children who
the Y.O.S are. After this talk to the children about the questions
that included media issues and the answers that were given. Lastly
talk to the children about the studies that took place by psychologists
to see if their is a connection between the two variables e.g. The
experiment Liebert & baron conducted, where they wanted to see if
watching violent programs effected a child's behavior,the results
concluded that violent programs result in an increase of aggression
in children.
However, this experiment was conducted in a laboratory which may be
too artificial.
2.Environment and Anti- & Pro-social behavior:
Talk to the children about the Key statistics of Anti- & Pro-social
behavior, talking about the number of ASBO'S issued in certain areas,
the crime rates in certain areas and how there are very few statistics
on Pro-social behavior (Ask the children why they think this is so).
secondly talk to the children about experiments psychologists have
done to see if they have found any connections between the two variables.
Thirdly explain to the children the definition of conformity, explaining
how conforming to the behaviors of a certain environment can effect
the outcome of either your Anti- or Pro-social behavior. Lastly, again
talk to the children about the Y.O.S and talk to the children about
the questions that included environment issues and the answers that
were given.
3.Make sure the children understand all the information given. |
