Abstract

This study examined the contributions of verbally aggressive TV exposure and perceived reality to trait verbal aggression. Verbally aggressive TV exposure, categorized by genre, was assessed by respondents’ (N = 591) frequency of viewing 60 TV shows popular among college students and then coded for their verbally aggressive content. A hierarchical regression, controlling for demographic variables, overall TV viewing, and social desirability, found exposure to TV comedies and the utility and social realism dimensions of perceived reality to be significant positive predictors of participants’ trait verbal aggression. However, there were no interaction effects among the TV genre exposure indexes and the perceived reality subscales.

言语攻击电视曝光和感知现实对言语攻击特质的影响

本研究考察了言语攻击性电视曝光和感知现实对言语攻击特质的影响。根据受访者(N = 591)观看60部受大学生欢迎的电视节目的频率，对言语攻击性电视内容进行了分类，然后对其进行了编码。在控制人口统计变量、总体电视观看量和社会可取性的分层回归中，发现电视喜剧的暴露时间、感知现实的效用和社会现实主义维度是参与者特质言语攻击的显著积极预测因素。然而，电视类型暴露指数与感知现实量表之间没有交互作用。
