Abstract
La investigación sobre violencia en televisión se ha orientado a una labor cuantificadora de lo emitido o a la práctica experimental para determinar sus posibles efectos. El presente trabajo se centra en cómo interpretan los espectadores las imágenes de violencia. Basado en el análisis de 16 grupos de discusión, muestra las dimensiones que mediatizan los posibles efectos de la violencia televisiva; en concreto, las condiciones en que se reconocen y clasifican escenas de violencia, las funciones de la imagen violenta, las emociones y sentimientos despertados por ella y los procesos de identificación que se pueden producir con los personajes de las escenas.
Research on violence on television has directed their main efforts to mostly quantitative and statistical analysis of media violence, as well as some detailed experimental studies on the effects of very specific scenes of violence. The present work deals with the interpretation of spectators of media violence. Based on the analysis of 16 focus groups, it tries to shed some light on the mediating factors or dimensions of broadcasted violence and its possible effects. In particular, the conditions for the recognition and classification of violence scenes, the functions of violent images, the emotions and feelings aroused by them, as well as the processes of identification with the main characters, have been analysed.
