    • Abstract:
      The article presents a study on the relationship between exposure to pornography and attitude or value change. Forty male undergraduate students aged 18 to 47 participated in the study and they were exposed to erotic pictures for three hours. It was found that exposure to pornographic materials does not lead to a change in a man's attitude towards such materials and censorship. Moreover, such exposure does not lead to a change in a man's moral values. These findings dispute the claim of obscenity statutes that pornography would cause anti-social ideation and moral corruption.
