title: The media: relationships to psychiatry and children: a seminar.
abstract: Media technologies and content exert powerful effects on individuals and society. The authors describe a multilecture seminar, intended for general and child and adolescent psychiatry residents, that focuses on media impacts on society. The presentations are intended to prompt critical thinking regarding the opportunities and risks that media forms and content present for children and adolescents. The potential uses of media in psychiatric education and clinical work are discussed in this context.
