The role of mass media socialisation in juvenile delinquencyFernandes, Carla Maria da Silva 31 January 2003 (has links)
When It comes to the basic perspectives on personal and social reality, it is
commonly assumed that these perspectives are learned within the parent-child
relafionship. As a result, the family has been typically accorded a place of primary
importance the explanation of socialisation. But another influence has been lurking
in the background- the mass media .
Media influence upon ~hildren has generally been assumed to be significant, with
powerful, long lasting consequences. However, traditional explanatory attempts
have predominantly dealt with the effects of media violence on juvenile
behaviour. The result has been a relative neglect of empirical analysis of media
socialisation as it relates to detinquent behaviour. a matter that the present study
attempted to rectify. The present study proposes that the media's commitment to
conformity varies in degree of congruence with societal expectations and this
variation is directly "transmitted to the child influencing the child's behaviour. / Criminology / M.A.

The use of digital media within gestalt play therapyTruby, Elvir Joan 06 1900 (has links)
The world is dominated by digital media that have become central to many children’s lives. Children born in the last 30 years have become known as ‘digital natives’, as digital technology has always been part of their experiential field. The use of such media in play therapy could offer innovative ways of enhancing dialogue with those children in whose field they are included, as they have been to date unexplored in play therapy interventions, possibly resulting in missed therapeutic opportunities.
This mixed methods research took the form of an email questionnaire sent out to play therapists in South Africa to ascertain whether digital technology is being used in therapy and, if so, which digital media are being used and how. Additionally, a focus group interview was conducted using the same questionnaire to ensure data triangulation. The data gathered were analysed qualitatively, and an understanding was gained regarding the current use of digital media in play therapy. / Social Work / M. Diac. (Play Therapy)
