Researchers at Marquette University in Wisconsin state discovered that by actually seeing comedy clips memory is actually improved. Clinical psychologists Mark Powless and Kristy Nielson are studying "memory adjustment". This is the process of converting information from short term memory to long term memory. Previous studies have shown that memory can be enhanced by disturbing stimuli like surgical video. Powless and Nielsen want to know if positive feelings can also improve memory.

Researchers have read 30 words from two groups of undergraduates. After 30 minutes, a group of people saw an interesting piece of SNL (Powless and Nielson saw many TV shows before finding the clip they wanted: "Jingleheimer Junction", Simulated Children's TV Program Behavior) One week later, the observation team remembers 15 to 20 words, but the other groups only remember 5 to 10 words.

Johnson agrees that 'the right' television increases the activity of the brain, meaning it allows you to think while people are watching TV. Children and young people need to be exposed to "good" television, as they will help to understand social problems in their lives. According to Mr Johnson, I can do a good TV

In Steven Johnson 's article "Getting smarter by watching television", the author believes that people will actually become smarter by watching TV programs on various TV programs, and that this will have an impact on our lives. He thinks watching television makes us smarter, why do we see what we have not heard before? He also uses dialog boxes, for example, using conversations from program ER to analyze what is going on between words and which words and sentences are used. For Dana Stevens, I guess that's just a view of her performance She thinks that some of the things they play on television are not good for us, but as regards how to become the past two, Stephen I agree with Johnson. Rapid development of television in the past decade But when reading these two articles, I like how Arthurs classifies the pros and cons of watching television.
