Almost 20 years ago now, I took a grad school class from the country's foremost expert on the effects of media violence, George Comstock. He published a compendium of studies that were done on the subject. There were hundreds of them. The bottom line of his work on the compendium is that you can find studies that demonstrate a connection and you can find studies that make it appear as if there is no connection. The connection is inconclusive, and highly dependent on the design of the study. I choose to believe that there is a connection and I act accordingly where my children are concerned.Originally Posted by Ravenlord
