Answer to Question 1

Answer: It is a statistical technique for combining the results of a number of studies in order to discover their commonalities. The meta-analysis showed that there is a correlation of approximately .30 between exposure to violent media and violent behavior.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The theory states that aggressive behavior is caused by rewards for punishments, which may be either direct or indirect. The Bobo Doll experiments demonstrated that children were more likely to imitate an aggressive person's violent behavior toward an inflatable doll if that person was rewarded for aggression, but not if punishment ensued instead.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
