The overview serves as an introduction to the six studies and summarizes their emphases and findings. In the first study, Gerbner analyzes and compares the programming of 1969 with that of 1967 and 1968, dealing with the quantity and quality of v3olence. In the second study, Clark and Blankenburg examine violence on TV and match their results against various measures of environmental violence. Greenberg and Gordon obtained data on what is perceived as violence in the third study, and Cantor discusses the factors influencing the selection of content for children's programs for the fourth study. In the fifth study, Baldwin and Lewis report on how top professionals responsible for producing adult drama perceive their role in regard to violent content.

    VIOLENCE in TELEVISION DRAMA 29 Report

    VIOLENCE IN TELEVISION DRAMA 29 report. The Appendix contains a full account of analytical procedures and a description of the samples of programs analyzed. It is obvious that television violence is communication, not violence. The implication of this simple fact is that research presumably investi­ gating the relationships between violence and communication cannot Violence in Television proceed on the basis of unexamined assumptions about the extent, na­ ture, and functions of the communication. The conventional approaches Drama: Trends and and methods of social research appropriate to the study of violent (or any other) behavior are not fully adequate to the analysis of the symbol­ Symbolic Functions ic presentations of that behavior. Research on mass communications has the unique task of studying symbol systems and their roles in social behavior. Such specialized study is needed when the symbolic functions of the communication are not necessarily or even typically the same as George Gerbner the functions of the behavior they symbolize. It becomes· necessary, therefore, to investigate the message of dramatic violence before at­ The Annenberg School of Communications tempting to find out what that message might cultivate in social concep­ University of Pennsylvania tions and behavior. Such an investigation was undertaken in this study. Symbolic functions are, of course, intimately involved in and govern most human activity. The social meaning of an act stems from the sym­ bolic context in which it is embedded. The significance of a life or a death rests in some conception of personality, goals, values, and fate. Similarly, the significance of dramatic action such as violence is an or­ ganic part of symbolic structures in which the action helps define, move, and resolve dramatic situations.
