For this assignment you will be required to watch one hour of television and count the number of aggressive acts you view and rate each act on intensity and duration. Rate the intensity of each act on a scale of 1-10 with 1 being low and 10 being extreme violence. Rate the duration according to the number of seconds of violence you viewed. Discuss your results and express your views and understanding of at least two of the distinct reactions that explain why exposure to violence may cause aggression as described in your text.
