adult mediation of violence effects

Adult mediation of violence effects refers to the behaviors that adults—usually parents or teachers—engage in to prevent children from experiencing harmful effects from exposure to media violence. Adults can mediate any form of violent media; however, the majority of the research has been done on mediation of violent television.
