6. M-Rated Video Games and Aggressive or Problem Behavior among Young Adolescents

Author

Olson, Cheryl K., Kutner, Lawrence A., Baer, Lee, Beresin, Eugene V., Warner, Dorothy E., and Nicholi, Armand M., II

Abstract

This research examined the potential relationship between adolescent problem behaviors and amount of time spent with violent electronic games. Survey data were collected from 1,254 7th and 8th grade students in two states. A "dose" of exposure to Mature-rated games was calculated using Entertainment Software Rating Board ratings of titles children reported playing "a lot in the past six months," and average days per week of video game play. Analyses were conducted using simultaneous logistic regression for binary outcome variables, and simultaneous multiple linear regression for continuous outcome variables, controlling for a series of potential confounders. M-rated game dose predicted greater risk for bullying (p less than 0.01) and physical fights (p less than 0.001), but not for delinquent behaviors or being a victim of bullies. When analyzed separately, these associations became weaker for boys and stronger for girls. (Contains 3 tables.)

7. Training Pediatric Residents and Pediatricians about Adolescent Mental Health Problems: A Proof-of-Concept Pilot for a Proposed National Curriculum

Author

Kutner, Lawrence, Olson, Cheryl K., and Schlozman, Steven

Abstract

Objective: This article presents a DVD-based educational program intended to help pediatric residents and practicing pediatricians recognize and respond to adolescent depression in busy primary care settings. Methods: Representatives from pediatrics and adolescent medicine, child and adolescent psychiatry and psychology, and experts in the creation of educational mental health programs met to design a multimedia approach to improving the mental health diagnostic skills among pediatric residents. The authors chose depression as the initial topic because of its relatively high prevalence among children and adolescents, and evidence suggesting that pediatricians may have difficulty diagnosing this disorder in the primary care setting. The authors created a 30-minute DVD program featuring depressed adolescents and experts in child psychiatry and adolescent medicine. After viewing the DVD, residents in the training program, as well as practicing pediatricians, completed a standardized survey to assess the usefulness and attractiveness of this approach to pediatric education. Results: The survey results support the potential value of this type of material and the feasibility of similar programs in addressing an array of mental health concerns in pediatric residencies. Participants found the program useful and indicated interest in receiving more educational programs in this format. Conclusion: The authors suggest that the relative ease with which initiatives such as this media-based approach can be implemented make this educational technique appropriate and feasible on a large scale for programs throughout the nation and for a variety of mental health concerns.

8. The Role of Violent Video Game Content in Adolescent Development: Boys' Perspectives

Author

Olson, Cheryl K., Kutner, Lawrence A., and Warner, Dorothy E.

Abstract

Numerous policies have been proposed at the local, state, and national level to restrict youth access to violent video and computer games. Although studies are cited to support policies, there is no published research on how children perceive the uses and influence of violent interactive games. The authors conduct focus groups with 42 boys ages 12 to 14. Boys use games to experience fantasies of power and fame, to explore and master what they perceive as exciting and realistic environments (but distinct from real life), to work through angry feelings or relieve stress, and as social tools. Boys did not believe they had been harmed by violent games but were concerned that younger children might imitate game behavior (especially swearing).

9. Parents' and Sons' Perspectives on Video Game Play: A Qualitative Study

Author

Kutner, Lawrence A., Olson, Cheryl K., and Warner, Dorothy E.

Abstract

Public policy efforts to restrict children's access to electronic games with violent or sexual content are often predicated on assumptions about parental concerns. As an initial step in determining whether those assumptions are accurate, the authors conduct focus groups of 21 adolescent boys and 21 of their parents or guardians to explore parents' concerns, compare parents' and children's perceptions, and see whether these are consistent with the focus of proposed legislation and other public policy efforts. Parents' primary concern is that games not interfere with their children's schoolwork, social skills, and exercise. They worry about exposure to violent content, but definitions of and opinions about what is harmful vary and may not match proposed public policies. (Contains 1 table.)

10. Media Violence Research and Youth Violence Data: Why Do They Conflict?

Author

Olson, Cheryl K.

Abstract

Objective: Contrary to media headlines and public perceptions, there is little evidence of a substantial link between exposure to violent interactive games and serious real-life violence or crime. Conclusion: Further research is needed on whether violent games may affect less dramatic but real concerns such as bullying, fighting, or attitudes and beliefs that support aggression, as well as how effects may vary by child characteristics and types of games. There is also a need for research on the potential benefits of violent games for some children and adults.
