虽然儿童时期观看电视暴力与攻击性之间的关系已被清楚地证明，但只有少数研究考察了从童年到成年的这种关系，而且这些针对20世纪60年代儿童成长的研究报告称，这种关系仅对男孩有显著影响。目前的研究以20世纪70年代和80年代为样本，考察了6至10岁时观看电视暴力与15年后成人攻击行为之间的纵向关系。随访档案数据（N = 450）和访谈数据（N = 329）显示，童年接触媒体暴力对成年后男性和女性的攻击行为都有预测作用。对具有攻击性的电视角色的认同和对电视暴力的现实性感知也预示着后来的攻击性。即使社会经济地位、智力能力和各种养育因素的影响受到控制，这些关系仍然存在。
Although the relation between TV-violence viewing and aggression in childhood has been clearly demonstrated, only a few studies have examined this relation from childhood to adulthood, and these studies of children growing up in the 1960s reported significant relations only for boys. The current study examines the longitudinal relations between TV-violence viewing at ages 6 to 10 and adult aggressive behavior about 15 years later for a sample growing up in the 1970s and 1980s. Follow-up archival data (N = 450) and interview data (N = 329) reveal that childhood exposure to media violence predicts young adult aggressive behavior for both males and females. Identification with aggressive TV characters and perceived realism of TV violence also predict later aggression. These relations persist even when the effects of socioeconomic status, intellectual ability, and a variety of parenting factors are controlled.
