Children in Armenia spend daily 3-4 hours on watching television,
recent findings suggest.
The studies conducted by a criminology research center of the National
Bureau of Expertise have revealed that brainstorming game for
school-children, a soap opera and an entertainment show are the most
popular broadcasts among the younger generation, a psychologist of the
center, Astghik Mehrabyan told reporters on Wednesday.
`Most of the parents said those broadcasts positively affect their
children, making them happier. At the same time, they stressed that
they do not raise the level of the children's cognitive abilities,'
she said, when introducing their findings at a Yerevan State
University-hosted round-table discussion.
The specialist noted that television's influence is great,
particularly on children, whose parents claim that they often imitate
the heroes of their favorite soap operas.
