This study investigates media preferences among preschool and early elementary school children, focusing on sociodemographic differences and the association between exposure to violent media content and children’s physically aggressive behaviour. The research was carried out in three stages: (1) parents completed a survey to provide sociodemographic data about their children; (2) children were interviewed about their favourite media and peer assessments of their physically aggressive behaviour were collected; and (3) children’s preferred media content was analysed to evaluate the extent of the violent content it included. The findings indicate a significant association between exposure to violent media content and a higher incidence of physically aggressive behaviour on the part of children. Moreover, there are gender- and agerelated differences in children’s media preferences, with boys and older children more frequently preferring violent content. These findings highlight the importance of both media literacy and active parental mediation in shaping children’s media habits and provide valuable insights for preventing the negative impacts of exposure to violent media on young children’s social and behavioural developmentRazmerje med izpostavljenostjo otrok nasilnim medijskim vsebinam in izražanjem fizično agresivnega vedenja je predmet obširnega proučevanja, pogosto prek Bandurove teorije socialnega učenja. Prispevek proučuje medijske preference predšolskih in osnovnošolskih otrok, s poudarkom na sociodemografskih razlikah in povezavi med izpostavljenostjo nasilnim medijskim vsebinam in fizično agresivnim vedenjem otrok. Raziskava je potekala v treh fazah: (1) starši so izpolnili vprašalnik, v katerem so navedli sociodemografske podatke o svojih otrocih; (2) otroke smo vprašali o njihovih najljubših medijih in zbrali vrstniške ocene o fizično agresivnem vedenju; (3) analizirali smo najljubše medijske vsebine otrok iz raziskave in ocenili nasilnost njihovih vsebin. Ugotovitve kažejo na pomembno povezavo med izpostavljenostjo nasilnim medijskim vsebinam in pogostejšim fizično agresivnim vedenjem otrok. Poleg tega obstajajo razlike v medijskih preferencah otrok glede na spol in starost, pri čemer se fantje in starejši otroci pogosteje odločajo za nasilne vsebine. Naše ugotovitve poudarjajo pomen medijske pismenosti in aktivnega posredovanja staršev pri oblikovanju medijskih navad otrok ter prinašajo pomembna spoznanja za preprečevanje negativnih vplivov izpostavljenosti nasilnim medijem na socialni in vedenjski razvoj mlajših otrokTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaZveza društev pedagoških delavcev Slovenije
