Research and intellectual interests

Valkenburg’s research interests include the cognitive, emotional, and social effects of media and technologies on children and adolescents. Her work has focused on all kinds of media contents and technologies, including advertising, pornography, media violence, and social media. Based on dozens of empirical studies she has developed several models to understand why media have small effects on some children but large and long-lasting effects on other children, which children are particularly susceptible to media effects, and how negative media effects can be minimized or counteracted.
