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.
