  abstract: "This study examines how cartoons impact children's development and identity formation. I wanted to focus specifically on diverse cartoons, meaning researching the effect of different genre categories and not grouping all cartoons into a single category. The categories are educational, moral/value- based, action, comedy, fantasy, emotional/social learning, problem-solving, and friendship cartoons. My research focuses on finding out the relationship between the cartoons and how they affect children's aspects in development, such as attention, behavior, moral understanding, thinking/learning skills, creativity, and emotional development. In order to find out the effects of the cartoons, I am doing an experiment in kindergarten class, where I observe the difference in children's behavior and actions between the ones that watched a cartoon and the ones that did not.

    My name is Yelyzaveta Kovalenko, I am a junior at J.R. Arnold High School, and I am enrolled in the AP Research course. I was born and raised in Ukraine until I moved to the United States at the age of 10. One of the biggest differences I noticed after moving was the difference in what types of cartoons  my peers and I grew up watching. I saw how differently the cartoons shaped my identity and how the cartoons that my peers grew up watching have shaped their personalities and identities. I found it very interesting to learn more about how diverse cartoons shape children's identity and development.
