The writer of “Research Design” John W. Creswell claim in his book that “the proposal
developer needs to consider three framework elements: philosophical assumptions about
what constitutes knowledge claims; general procedures of research called strategies of
inquiry; and detailed procedures of data collection, analysis and writing, called methods.”
• Philosophical Assumptions: I will use pragmatism approach and sequential
procedures will be employed, I will personally conduct the surveys for data
collection. The study is deductive in approach as many other studies are available
on this topic but in Pakistani context there are many few studies.
• Strategies of Inquiry: The sequential procedures will use the qualitative method in
first phase by conducting the semi-structured interviews and in second phase I
will use the questionnaire.
• Data Collection: Data will be collected from the school children and I will
personally visit the research place to collect the data.
The assumptions of John W. Creswell are very much related with the ideas of Crotty
(1998) who suggest the four questions for the preparation of framework. That are written
below.
• What is epistemology?
• What is theoretical perspective?
In spite of all these reason children are keener to see TV which let them to
waste their time and stop them from the healthy activities. The Institute of Medicine
pointed out all these reasons in the report of 2006. The Institute of Medicine (IOM)
The report of National Study 2002 indicates that children get message about the product
through carious mediums such as television, magazines and online and it also helps them
and every time some kind of advertisement activities. The use media
has been increased everybody is connected with media and using the
different sources of media to get information.
In the same way children are watching TV during the breakfast, they
are listing Radio on the way when going to school and looking at
billboards and the modern advertisement include the video billboards
which attracts more attention than others. So, in this way children are
being pursued by the marketers and they are influencing the memory
of children.
The purpose of all these activities is to make the people to go and
purchase their products. Today’s advertising and marketing are
described by cultural analyst Andrew Wernick (1991 p vii) (8)
as “a
rhetorical1 form that permeates our entire culture”. According to
Wemick, advertising nowadays comprehensively influences our society
and our fundamental cultural patterns. But questions associated with
the way advertising influences society and our basic cultural frames of
reference go beyond the bounds of what can be studied using the
perspectives of advertising research. Many critics of both advertising
and the view of its effects that has dominated in advertising research
also maintain that the most important effect of advertising lies in
promoting the modem ideology of consumption (Ewen 1976; Lee 1993
p 90). The central message of advertising - which is always present
whatever goods it is promoting - is to make us buy, or consume. (9)
Both these studies have been applied in USA with the purpose of
measuring the advertisement effects on society. In this view the
present study is very important to measure the effects of modern
The example shows that how much they are worried about their children and want to
avoid them form the negative effects of advertisement. These kinds of committees can
also save the Pakistani children from the miss gaudiness or from many other bad habits.
So, the study is also important because I will be very helpful to recognize the parents how
media can affect on the memory of their children.
By 1979 a new committee has been appointed by the American public health authorities
(The national Institute of Mental Health). This body was assigned to evaluate and
summarize the results of the research that had been done. The committee’s report, which
was published in 1982 under the title Television and Behavior: Ten Years of Scientific
Progress and Implications for the Eighties, stated that the research done in the 1970s
confirmed that there was a relationship between TV violence and aggressive behavior
among children and young people over time. (Lowey & DeFleur 1988 p 389 et seq).(11)
Klapper ‘s(media researcher1060)(12) conclusions were also confirmed by the first major
study of the effect of television on children, which was conducted in the late 195Os, and
which was presented in the book Television in the Lives of our Children, where the
results of eleven large research projects were set out (Schramm et al 1961).(13)
On the other hand there is no committee or organization that is working to check this
tendency which reflects the negligence of government. In Pakistani market many
Multinational companies are changing the environment. There is no one to ask them or to
