Exposure to Gun Violence in Movies Increases Interest in Real Guns

Ohio State University·interventional·Posted Jul 18, 2017·Updated Jun 3, 2019

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Movies with Guns for Psychology, Social and Adolescent Behavior. Completed, enrolled 104 participants.

Detailed Summary

More American children die by accidental gun use than children in other developed countries. One factor that can influence children's interest in guns is exposure to media containing guns. The objective of this study is to test whether children who see a movie containing guns will handle a real gun longer and will pull the trigger more times than children who see the same movie without guns.
