description: Various forms of media constitute a powerful force in our culture, and have important effects on children, adolescents and families. Practitioners should understand what children are seeing, listening to and using in the media (television, movies, interactive games, music, internet, etc.) and how this helps or hinders optimal development. This issue also examines the use of media for public education in child development, psychopathology and treatment.
