title: Televised violence: a Japanese, Spanish, and American comparison.
abstract: In Japan, Spain, and the USA during one week acts of violence (verbal and nonverbal) were rated on the Index of Television Violence by 3 raters in each country. In all three countries televised violence was more likely depicted in interpersonal conflict than against property. Fewer scenes of physical or fatal injury appeared in Japan than in the other two countries. Other observations were made. Replication is urged.
