Options:

It provides a large amount of infotainment in an attractive form

It affects childrens ability to concentrate

It affects the aggression and violence level of viewers

It has led to consumerism

Correct Answer:

It provides a large amount of infotainment in an attractive form

Explanation:

Television provides a large amount of infotainment in an attractive form, and in the visual mode, for which it became a powerful medium of instruction. At the same time, because the programmes are attractive, children spend huge amounts of time watching them. This reduces their habit of reading and writing, and also their outdoor activities such as playing.

The other options are not positive effects of television on behavior.
