Aggression In Yakima

Decent Essays

Our group is proposing the research question: Will violent video games bring out aggression in the students that play them? Our hypothesis for this experiment is violent video games will trigger aggression in students. The video games ranging from non-violent to violent will act as our independent variable. Our dependent variable will be how we measure the level of aggression every two weeks. Our experiment should be high in internal validity because we are demonstrating cause/effect relationships with independent and dependent variables.
To begin our research, we will randomly select 200 students, ages 12-16, within the Yakima School District. Our external validity should be low because we can only generalize our findings to the Yakima School
