2 (cartoon) _ 2 (prior state) ANOVA was conducted. The
results indicated that there were significant main effect of cartoon,
F (1, 38) = 4.45, p < .05. Children who viewed the violent
cartoon (M = 2.89) were rated as playing more aggressively than
children who had viewed the nonviolent cartoon (M = 1.52). This
main effect, however, should be qualified by the interaction with
prior state, F (1, 36) = 4.42, p < .05. Children who were frustrated
and viewed the violent cartoon (M = 5.55) were rated as playing
more aggressively than children in other conditions (M = 1.11, 1.48,
1.54, respectively).
