Violent TV, Video Scenes Desensetise Teen boys
''Teenage boys who repeatedly watch vicious TV programmes, films and video games are likelier to become insensitive to violence''
''We found that as the boys were exposed to more violent videos over time, their activation in brain regions concerned with emotional reactivity decreased, and that was reflected in the data from the fMRI and in the skin conductance"
''Desensitisation was most marked among boys who had the most exposure to violent media in their daily lives, as measured by questions in their initial meeting with the researchers.''
