Young people 8-18 in age view about four hours of television a day, says Dr. George Comstock, Professor at Syracuse University in a December 16, 2008 email interview. The big surprise is how early TV viewing begins. Children two and under average about two hours a day. The images are apparently pleasing to these young children even though they don’t understand much about them. Even this early, however, children can imitate simple physical acts performed on the screen.

Children Consume Violent Cartoons

According to Dr. Comstock, children’s cartoons are among the most violent of formats. The best count is 14 violent incidents per hour, compared to about six for general audience programming. Cartoons make violent behavior particularly attractive to children. They almost always show violence as achieving a sought-for goal, and as the normal way to behave. Children imitate those who succeed, and in cartoons, violence succeeds.

Violence is more prevalent in children's shows. Dr. Barbara Wilson conducted a large scale study examining physical violence on television from 1994 to 1997. Of over 3,000 programs airing on 23 channels, she found that nearly 70% of children's programs contained physical violence, whereas less than 60% of non-children's shows did. There are two observations Dr. Wilson, Vice Provost of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, has made from these percentages. First, violence is a staple in most fictional programming on television today. But second, physical violence is even more likely to be portrayed in shows targeted to children aged 12 and under. Many of these programs, of course, are cartoons.
