Abstract (2. Language): 
This study examines the impact of media violence on children. While parents have a central role in influencing the lives of their children, culture, school, peers and especially media has a powerful effect on children’s attitudes, behaviors and development. This paper starts with the discussion of media and its responsibility. Afterwards, it opens windows to explore two contrast ideas of the studies on media violence. While one group of researchers claims that there is a strong link between aggressive behaviors of children and media, others argue that media violence is not the only cause of children’s violent behaviors and the negative effect of media is not serious. Finally, the paper argues the issue of media violence in different countries such as USA, Bangladesh, Britain, France, China, Vietnam, and Turkey to be able to understand the situation of media violence in those countries and its effects on children’s aggressive and violent behaviors.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu çalışma, medya şiddetinin çocuklar üzerindeki etkisini incelemektedir. Her ne kadar aileler çocuklarının gelişiminde temel rol oynasa da kültür, okul, arkadaş çevresi ve özellikle medya çocukların, tutumları, davranışları ve gelişimlerinde güçlü bir etkiye sahiptir. Çalışma, medya ve medyanın sorumluluklarını tartışarak başlamaktadır. Daha sonra medya şiddeti ile ilgili yapılan çalışmalarda ortaya çıkan zıt düşüncelere pencereler açmaktadır. Bir grup araştırmacı medya şiddeti ile çocukların saldırgan davranışları arasında kuvvetli bir bağın olduğunu savunurken diğerleri çocukların saldırgan davranışlarının tek sebebinin medya olmadığını ve medyanın olumsuz sonuçlarının ciddi olmadığını savunmaktadırlar. Son bölümde, medyadaki şiddetin Amerika, Bangladeş, İngiltere, Fransa, Çin, Vietnam ve Türkiye gibi farklı ülkelerdeki durumlarını ve bu durumun o ülkelerdeki çocukların agresif ve saldırgan davranışları üzerindeki etkisini anlayabilmek için farklı ülkelerde medya şiddeti tartışılmaktadır.
