The additional aim is to help participants to improve their coping mechanismsCoping mechanisms are one group of coping skills .... For the realisation of that aim, we provide them with educational materials.

Discussion
Is it possible to see only the statistic page separately?
Yes, the statistic page can be seen separately on the web address: http://projects.labforculture.org/~andrejak/statistics.php
feedback: it is very interesting to see how media really affect us and how people are under the influence of media which they are not, in most of the situations aware…
it would be even more interesting if u do some sort of research specifically on one sort of media, for example internet newspaper, tv (commercial broadcasting programs, national television , satellite television…) and see what sort of people prefer what sort of information source and divide them on age groups, so we could see how teenagers are effected by, i don't know, status symbols what famous people are showing in media for teenagers, or how are elderly people afected on something else….
