Study: Violence, Sex Increases in Movies
BOSTON (AP) - Violence, sex, and profanity in movies increased significantly
between 1992 and 2003, while ratings became more lenient, according to a new
Harvard study.
Research by the Kids Risk Project at the Harvard School of Public Health
found a "ratings creep" for movies, and suggested that the Motion Picture
Association of America was relaxing standards in rating films.
The study, released Tuesday, suggested that films rated PG and PG-13 had
become more violent; that there was more sexual content in PG, PG-13, and R
films; and more profanity was used in films rated PG-13 and R.
The researchers said the current rating system does not adequately describe
the contents of movies.
