children's leisure time. Subjects were 3000 school children in a
suburban area of Tokyo. From the children's responses to
questionnaires, they were separated into TV-type (heavy TV viewers
and light print media users) and print-type (light TV viewers and heavy
print media users) groups, and the data for these two groups were
compared across age groups.

The findings indicated that print-type children are superior in


intelligence, creativity, positivity, and adaptability and are also more
future-oriented. However, children who are heavy TV viewers and who

children are inferior to those of print-type (although this
difference was ascribed to different intelligence rather than
viewing levels), that children in a high parent-child conflict group
tend to view TV heavily, but that children tend to watch TV for
the sake of enjoyment rather than to escape reality, and that
boys watch more than girls.

in academic achievement were not found, although most children
thought they should cut down their viewing of TV. It is
recommended that children be trained to be selective viewers.
