Resumen
Concern about violence in society as a whole and in advertising in particular is growing. We present a multilayered content analysis of depictions of violence in advertising and develop a classification scheme that allows systematic examination of violent content in advertisements. Using the classification scheme, we use normative ethical analysis to develop guidelines for advertisers, policymakers, and regulators to use in the assessment of the ethicality of violent advertisements.
