Abstract
This project looks at Television as a positive contribution to the socialization of children. In time past, a great deal of research has been carried out at various levels on the impact of televisions on the socialization process of children in several parts of the world by mass communication scholars. Contrary to what is regarded as the norms, this present study is specifically addressing itself to the positive contribution made by television on the socialization process of children. In obtaining a scientific conclusion, the research method adopted was the multi-staged sampling techniques and systematic random numbers were adopted in sample selection. With data collected through the questionnaire method, the researchers found that the result of this study gave credence to the fact that television is a positive contributor to the socialization of children more especially when supervised by parents. It is therefore recommended in this study that parents should pay particular attention to what children watch and the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) should regulate the kind and times of programs, especially for children. In addition, any future replication of the study should be carried out at the national level to ensure a more national spread and applicability since this a closed-circuit study.
