La violencia en los medios y su influencia en las cogniciones de niños y adolescentes

In this research, we study the influence of media violence on 12 to 15 years old boys and girls. We asked, from a qualitative framework, how this violence influences their perceptions in their cognitive schemas. Students say that violence does not affect them and that they are very desensitized to fictional and real violence, as well as their victims. In spite of their first statements, we perceive concerns about bullying and cyberbullying. Without affirming it implicitly, they fear to be a subject of bullying and cyberbullying. We provisionally perceive a very banal and mundane attitude towards violence.
