highlighted.
Have children exposed to movies created before 1980 caused more injuries than children
exposed to movies after 1980?
Which group has caused more injuries: children exposed to movies created between 1937-
1960, children exposed to movies created between 1961-1989, or children exposed to movies
created between 1990-1999?
Determine the statistics using a one-tailed t-test (for question 1) and ANOVA (for question
2). Be sure to describe how you ensured that the assumptions for each test were met prior
to doing the one-tailed t-test and ANOVA. Justify your choice with references.

Summary of SPSS Results
The impact of media has been focused by several of researches recently. Film production
has dramatically evolved. Based on my findings, there is no difference in the harm to children
exposed to movies created before and after the year 1980 (Williams, Zabrack, & Joy, 2013).
SUMMARY OF SPSS RESULTS 3
Addiction is one of the most significant adverse impacts of media on children who spend
a considerable amount of their time watching films (Wiedeman, Black, Dolle, Finney, & Coker,
2015). Addiction affects children’s behavior towards people. Another impact of media is
imitation. Addiction affects society either positively or negatively. Children end up emulating
something that benefits or has a negative impact on their lives.
Due to the developmental traits of adolescents and children, the exposure to violence
shown in films and movies to children has had long-term effects. Moreover, some surveys have
studied the topic and have conquered on the correlation between violence manifested in the
videos and the media and mental and physical issues in children (Walma van der Molen,
Valkenburg, & Peeters, 2014).
One of the impacts that have caused much attention is the relationship between
aggressive behavior in children and media violence. Movies also have positive impacts
considering they are educative though researchers would argue that there are more negative
effects than positive effects of films on children (Williams, Zabrack, & Joy, 2013).
