ANSWER:
An operational definition of aggression:
A group of peers are allowed to play and have fun, for about 30mins. This will help them to be in the same state of mind. After the 30mins time, each person's aggression level was measured, as it's assumed that their are all in the same state of mind. The measurement was done by using abusive words on them to record how their will behave. Those that did not react or has a very mild reaction to it were recorded to have zero to 1 level of aggression, which is known as low aggression level. Those that reacted to the abuse by abusing back or forbidden the abuse, without shouting or being harsh were recorded to have 2 to 4 level of aggression, which is known as medium aggression level. While those that reacted in a harsh manner by shouting and abusing back in a manner that shows their are ready to fight, were recorded to have 5 to 10 level of aggression, which is known as high level of aggression.
The measurement used in this example is Categorical and the type of measure been used called Behavioral measure.

There was clear evidence that children came up with less original ideas immediately after watching television,"said Sarah Rose, Lecturer at Staffordshire University in Britain," although adding "these effects disappeared after a short time."
However, "if children are less creative in their play, this could, over time, negatively impact their development," Rose said.
There is a belief that slow-paced programmes are more educational but our findings do not support this, Sarah said.
In the study, the team looked at the immediate impact of television on three-year-old's creativity. They compared children who watched -- Postman Pat, with those who read books or played jigsaw puzzles.

The findings were presented at the British Psychological Developmental Conference in Belfast, recently.
