Through the results collected during the investigation process, the researchers were able to achieve the main objective and purpose of this article. The interpretation and analysis of the primary data collected and their support with the secondary resources collected made it possible to arrive at the following conclusions: Firstly, the 46% of children who spend at least 1 to 3 hours watching cartoons have the greatest possibility of depicting violent and aggressive behavior. With the results obtained, most of the respondents (57%) agree that the drawing contains violence. Based on this, the more children watch cartoons as a hobby, the more likely they are to be influenced by violent actions and aggressive behavior. Relating this to a psychological approach, due to children's exposure to cartoons that depict violent and aggressive situations involving the characters in the series, it leads them to learn erroneous behaviors and actions that they tend to apply in their daily lives. Second, 57% of children do not exhibit aggressive behavior after watching a cartoon. However, it is strongly recommended that parents guide their children when watching cartoons because several studies have been done and have proven that cartoons today contain violence. To prevent the growing number of children who exhibit aggressive behavior, parents could impose limits on their children. spend their time in the media by turning off the television in their home when no one is watching, removing the television from the children's bedroom, and setting rules about how much time their children can spend in the media (The Henry J. Keizer Family Foundation cited in Kaufman's article, 2009).

In addition, parents should properly accompany their children when watching cartoons to mitigate possible negative impacts on children's behavior. Thanks to the results collected, the researchers were able to conclude that exposing children to violent media such as cartoon violence could lead them to learn. erroneous behaviorism such as the application of violent actins on other people, the representation of aggressive behavior, the imitation of convulsive actions and slowness in carrying out work. Relating this to psychology which focuses on observable behavior and the conditions that support unhealthy behavior (Approaches in Practice, 2001).
