Abstract
In the era of rapid digitalization, electronic
media has become an integral part of adolescent life. While it provides
opportunities for learning, communication, and creativity, it also poses
significant psychological and behavioral challenges. One such concern is the
growing tendency toward aggression among adolescents-a pattern increasingly
linked with media exposure. This paper critically examines the role of
electronic media in the development of aggressive behavior among adolescents.
Drawing on psychological theories such as Social Learning Theory,
Frustration-Aggression Hypothesis, and Cognitive Script Theory, it explores the
mechanisms through which media shapes attitudes and emotions. The study
synthesizes findings from empirical research, highlighting the impacts of
television violence, social media dynamics, online gaming, and digital
addiction. The paper concludes with educational and psychological
implications, suggesting a balanced approach through media literacy education,
parental monitoring, and value- Based interventions to transform
electronic media into a constructive tool for youth development.
