A theory of media influence upon the consuming public's perceptions of the nature of crime is presented for review. This theory identifies the various studies which have been conducted along the lines of the influence of newspaper and television media, while noting the absence of the so-called "new media" from the literature at hand. In accordance with this absence of the "new media" with previous studies an effort will be made to determine if such new online social networking and news sites have an impact on the perceptions of crime.

Do the media create, enhance or distort the public understanding of crime? Is crime itself influenced by the media? Forensic and social psychologists, criminologists, police, lawyers and other professionals and policymakers in the criminal justice system are increasingly concerned with these issues and the implications for their dealings with the media. Academics and researchers in the fields of cultural and media studies, and communication studies, will also value this serious analysis of the concepts and research evidence in this field. This book is the first systematic, comprehensive account of media and crime that relates real-life crime and real media activity to social and individual implications, from a psychological perspective. It includes consideration of property crime, drug crime, race-related crime, and the growing problem of women's crime, as well as sexual and violent crime. The book establishes the study of media and criminal-legal issues as an important part of academic and professional endeavors to understand crime and society. It is written by a leading academic with longstanding interests and work in this field. - Back cover.

As the media is extremely prevalent in the 21st century, it is important to understand the effects that the media has on public perception. With the increase of public interest in crime-related television shows, news stories, and novels, it is imperative that the public recognizes the psychological and behavioral effects of viewing crime in the media. Previous research examining fear and anxiety when viewing crime in the media has been inconclusive; however, no research study has analyzed changes in specific emotions before and after participants viewed crime stories between various media genres. The present study examined various positive and negative emotions associated with anxiety to gain insight into the psychological effects of viewing crime in the media. Participants were surveyed to learn about the behavioral responses to viewing crime in the media. The results of the present study suggest that many of the participants were psychologically desensitized to viewing crime in the media. Out of 20 emotions, “jittery” was the only feeling that established a significant difference between groups, with participants feeling the most jittery following the viewing of a fictional crime television show. However, the majority of participants indicated that they would take behavioral measures to protect themselves from potential crimes. Further research is needed to learn more about the incongruence between the psychological and behavioral effects of viewing crime in the media.
