Chapter-4 Data Analysis & Findings:

This research study aimed to explore the impact of western and Indian cartoons on children.

A sample of 250 parents was obtained to investigate their opinions and perceptions regarding

the cartoons impact. Out of 250 parents (including fathers & mothers) 239 responded to the

pre constructed questionnaire of this study. The rest of responses were incomplete so were

excluded from the analysis. The detailed findings are given below.

Hypotheses Testing:

H1: It is more likely that students who spent more time while watching cartoons on

television would have less academic performance as compared to those who watch

less.

The first hypotheses states that it is more likely that students who spent more time while

35
watching cartoons on television would have less academic performance as compared to those

who watch less. The findings indicated in the above table of cross tabulation between time

spent on TV while watching cartoons and their academic performance were highly associated

with a significant difference of academic performance. The data reveals in the table that

children who spent 3-4 hours on TV to watch cartoons were more likely to show low or

average academic performance at school.

The statistical application of chi square tests indicates a significant difference in academic

performance of children spending much time on TV to watch cartoon programs. The chi

square value (92.61) with a degree of freedom (12) clearly indicates significant difference as

the P-value is <0.05. Thus, this hypothesis is strongly approved.

36
H2: It is more likely that parents having higher qualification would likely to think that

children should be closely monitored when they are watching cartoons.

The second hypotheses states that it is more likely that parents having higher qualification

37
would likely to think that children should be closely monitored when they are watching

cartoons. The findings in the above table clearly revealed that the parent wow were higher

qualified were more likely to agree and strongly agree towards closely monitoring their

children while watching cartoon programs on the television. Quite the opposite, the parents

with less educational background were more likely to disagree this notion about closely

monitoring their children.

The statistical test of goodness of fit test/chi square that there was a significant different in

agreement of the parents with higher qualification and educational background and the parent

with less education. The chi square value (354.61) with a degree of freedom (16) shows

significant different in opinion of both groups regarding closely monitoring their children

while watching cartoon programs. As the P-value is <0.05 which means the hypothesis is

strongly approved and supported.

38
H3: The time of watching cartoon programs is significantly associated with the academic

performance of the students.

The 3rd hypotheses states that the time of watching cartoon programs is significantly

associated with the academic performance of the students. The findings presented in the

above table clearly depicts that the children watching cartoons in the evening and night were

more likely to show less academic performance at school as compared to those who watch in

the afternoon after coming from school. Similarly, the children watching cartoons in the

39
morning were also showed less academic performance at school as revealed by parents.

The application of chi Square test of non-parametric statistics clearly indicates the significant

difference and relationship between time of watching cartoons and academic performance of

the children at school. The Chi Square value (34.34) with the degree of freedom (9) shows

significant difference between hypothesized variables. As the P-values is <0.05 this means

that this hypothesis too is strongly approved and supported.

H4: The fathers of the children would more likely to think that cartoons are creating anti-

social behavior among children as compared to their mothers.

The 4th hypothesis states that among parents, fathers of the children would more likely to

think that cartoons are creating anti-social behavior among children as compared to their

mothers. The results of the tables as shown in the above tables strongly supports this

statement that among parents of school children, majority among the fathers were more likely

to agree and strongly agree towards the point of view that cartoon programs are creating anti-

social behavior among children.

The Chi Square test of statistics also supports this hypothesis that among parents, fathers of

the children were more likely to support this argument that cartoons are creating anti-social

behavior among children as compared to mothers of the children who on the contrary share

opposite views on this statement. The Chi Square value (20.20) with a degree of freedom (4)

indicates that this hypothesis is strongly supported as there was a significant difference of

opinions among mothers and fathers of the children. As the P-value is also <0.05.

H5: It is more likely that ‘Chhota Bheem’ and ‘Doraemon’ would be the mostly watched

cartoon programs among children.

Figure#4.17: Parents responses regarding favorite cartoon programs among children

The 5th hypothesis states that it is more likely that ‘Chhota Bheem’ and ‘Doraemon’ would be

the mostly watched cartoon programs among children. The above bar graph of percentages

43
and frequency of responses from the parents of the children indicates that Chhota Bheem’ and

‘Doraemon’ were the most preferred cartoon programs widely liked by the most of the

children as compared to other cartoon programs. This hypothesis too strongly approved and

accepted.
