We can see that the younger generations see violent games as stress relief for themselves to let out their anger and thoughts and frustration!

In connection to the previous graph the split down the middle on this one is age again, showing that the older people in the first graph are agreeing more that it has caused some of this violence and that there is a connection amongst kids that play these games and do eventually go and commit a crime that may or may not be slightly similar  to the game they had been playing. Allowing us to see that older people are believing that a lot of these crimes are because younger people are playing these violent games. Furthermore in the second graph we can see that it’s much more even all over with that a lot of people believe it is more like a release for all of this aggression and violence causing them to be less violent in real life on oppose to the game. A lot of violence and crimes in real life from youths isn’t only down to what games people are playing on there computers. Alot of it is down to there childhood being patchy.

From the two graphs we see a clear trend. We see that younger people believe violent video games are a good way to let out anger, with the vast majority of them agreeing with this in the second graph and disagreeing with the statement in graph 1. However, older people in the 60+ category are the complete opposite and believe video games cause real life violence. A reason for this could the sociological theory of moral panic, because the media post stories related to this that are exaggerating, causing moral panic, especially for older people who do not understand it

(Explain two sociological reasons for the relationship between age and the use of social networking sites)

Firstly, the majority of people using Facebook is people aged 25-34 whereas the majority of people using twitter is people ages of 16-24 I believe that is because Facebook came around in 2004 and was quickly one of the most used social networking sites in the world meaning people old enough to use it would have already been 13+ years old and it was when technology and social networking was becoming a bigger thing in the days and twitter started in 2006 where more and more off generation Z were being born meaning that in years too come platforms like twitter were going to be used by them more than Facebook who were overpopulated with older people.

Facebook is the only one that people ages of 16-24 do not overrule the other ages as YouTube, instagram and twitter have a much more younger influence. This could be for many reason such as Facebook is “what our mums and grandparents use” and instagram is heavily based on influencers who share there day to day life attracting way more younger people more than it would attract the older people.

There seems to be a stereotype in the modern day that younger people such as tweens, teenagers, and young adults live there lives around social medias.

Functionalists believe social media is seen as productive and allows people to increase there interactions and information so that all parts of society can function properly together

Whereas Karl Marx who created many of the biggest Marxist theories believes that social media sights manipulate your thoughts and beliefs on the classes of people as it maintains the wealthiest wealth and privilege

[2] Explain two sociological reasons for the relationship between the media and violent behaviour.

# data[].attributes.body
There are many sociological reasons for the relationship between the media and violent behaviour. One of the reasons that this relationship exists is of the changing availability of the video/computer games, with them not being readily available when the age group of the 60s was at the target audience game this can cause them to have negative opinions of them and link them with violent behaviour. This can also be shown through the media as Marxists are particularly critical of media influence of young people, they believe that this is a form of ideological control of capitalism.
A sociological reason for the belief of that video/compuer games aren't a cause of violent behaviour can be that of the PostModernist theory who believe that the media has an important role in the entertainment of society and that you must buy it this contrasts the view of modernism who believe you can educate yourselves. With the postmodernist view that work is a source of income and with this income being used to buy media (entertainment), shows how the postmodernist society agrees more on a "have fun" type of ideology.

The content of this graph dictates that the older you get the more of an influence you believe video/computer games have on leading to violence. This is shown as 79% of the over 60s believe that video/computer games can lead to real-world violence and aggression. However, this is not translated in the 18-24 year old age group as they believe that video/computer games are a useful outlet for frustration and aggression, with 73% of them stating this. This clearly observes the generation gap of the view on video and computer games.

Summarise the usage of social networking sites.

Given the statistics shown on the graph it is clear that the younger generation, ranging from 16-24 year olds, is especially keen on Twitter which could be due to the simplicity of it as it allows them to send out quick/short messages very easily.

However, this cannot be said for Facebook since the app focuses more on spamming people with ads, making it become very frustrating and creates a negative spotlight on the app. Although, the older generation, ranging from 55-64 year olds, find that it is one of the best apps to use. However, this could be due to the fact that they do not know much about technology at that age so they are inexperienced to even know what the term 'banner blindness' is, making them vulnerable to the app's intentions.

We can also see that people who are aged 25-34 prefer more social and I guess a bit more complicated media platforms such as Instagram and YouTube because it gives them more to look at and work with in so many ways (choices).

Explain two sociological reasons for the relationship between age & the use of social networking sites.

One reason for the relationship between age with these specific social networking sites is because is due to the fact that millennials show a stronger tendency towards image-led social medias since it entertains and keeps us updated with what is going on with our friendship groups or simply what is happening in the world. This makes the younger generation a bit more educated and experienced than the older generation since we are more engaged and were brought up with the technology.

From what is shown in these statistics, it is clear that Facebook has the lowest amount of users by 16-24 year olds, this could be because there are more social media platforms that are more appealing to these youth groups and how Facebook has a lot of ads that are discouraging to most. Furthermore, the highest amount of users for 16-24 year olds is Twitter as there are more activities you can do on the app and is probably the best way to communicate with a variety of people from different backgrounds. Moreover, Twitter has the lowest amount of users for 55-64 year olds. This could be the case as this particular generation might not have as much experience with technology, and do not have the essential resources to get help.

In this graph I can acknowledge that most of the younger generations use networking sites the most. People aged over 55 hardly use social media where as people ages 16-24 use social media the most this could be because that’s how they’ve been brought up around a society who uses social media to contact friends rather than the old days where you’d walk to there door or call them and arrange something nowadays people rely more on social medias.

Q2

One sociological reason for the relationship of the ages and the use of social img networks could be mental health and depression. Maybe the younger generation are suffering more from things like depression so they use social media as an alternative way where they can talk to people about those they feel ….

Not rlly sure what else I can say

# data[].attributes.body
The graph is showing us that at this point the younger you are the more likely you are to be on all these social media platforms, the more likely you’ll be up to date on technology. As it only goes up to the age of 16 we don’t know if people younger than that were on these sights so we couldn’t confirm if it is past a certain age or not. One reason for this may be that the older people this this situation didn’t grow up with all these platforms and all of this technology them knowing other ways of communicating or of finding out the news , therefore allowing them to not be dependent on these platforms and potentially only using them once or twice a week just look at what might have happened in the last couple days. However the flip side of that bring that the younger people have grown up with this technology this way of communicating and are dependent on it to contact people and have to be Glued to a device constantly otherwise feeling like they are missing out.

The relationship between age and the use of social networking sites is apparent to be a close one as it is shown in the graph that those of a younger age are more likely to be on a social networking site. This relationship can be shown by the Marxist theory as they suggest that the media can become 'a drug that influences people', this can be seen in the graph and everyday life as social networking sites can influence trends in society. Consumerism can also influence the relationship and ages that use social networking sites for example the constant advertising can become significant and influence younger people as they are more vulnerable. The functionalist theory can also show the relationship of the use and age of social networking sites. This can be shown by people wanting to communicate with each other and can be particularly dominant in the 16-24 age group, who will be stereotypically more sociable.

This is compared to a 15% of 35-40s using the platform. This correlation is shown on all of the platforms however it has a less significant different like in Facebook this is only about a 5% difference compared to a 30% difference on Twitter.
