into detail about the many things that had

reverse direction; that is, preference for violent
television programs at age eighteen was not
produced by their aggressive behavior in early
childhood. The most plausible interpretation of
this pattern of correlations is that early
preference for violent television programming and
other media is one factor in the production of

with its high waist position and ankle length
skirt at the beginning, to the simple, hardly
