I can't wait to see what kind of references this quack is going to come up with to support her study. I can't imagine how someone who claims to be a professional could simply make a claim such as this and not expect to have to actually prove her theory. Even a first year student in her field would know that having references are key to being taken seriously.
A week to be able to show us proof? Please, don't insult our intelligence. If you had done any sort of research on this instead of simply spilling out whatever crap the right-winged idiots from Fox wanted to hear, you would be able to provide it to us right away. Just because you have a PhD doesn't mean that your word is law. For crying out loud, even Wikipedia has better standards than this idiot.
Guess she wasn't expecting anyone to contradict her "facts", much less us gamers. After all, we're all busy committing violent crimes, raping anything that moves, causing cancers and killing rainbows (Why not? Makes as much sense as what they're already claiming...).
I took the liberty of doing some research of my own on a few websites that publish research Journals, specifically related to psychology, to see if I could find any of her so called proof. I found the usual suspects about violent media and its effect on people, but when it came to finding a study that actually looked at the relation specifically between video games and rape, I couldn't find anything (if anyone is interested or you have nothing better to do, you are free to take a look for yourselves: http://www.socialpsychology.org/journals.htm ).
Here's my "professional" opinion: Dr Carole Lieberman is a sad old woman with no social life and zero credit when it comes to her expertise on video games, who feels the need to validate her miserable existence with whatever attention she can grab, even if that means feeding rubbish to gullible people without any founded proof to back her delusional claims. I'll give you my references in a week...
