CSI Effect on Society: A Research Study

The assignment content discusses the impact of Crime Scene Investigation (CSI) on society, particularly among youths. The report presents research findings that show how CSI shows on television have educated people about forensic science tools, DNA fingerprinting, and other technologies used in crime solving. The study reveals that TV is an effective platform to spread awareness among youth, but it also distorts the public's perception of the criminal justice system, exaggerating police investigation methods, fear of crimes, and attitudes towards criminal justice.

CSI effect on society 2
The report presented by me is of crime scene investigation influence on society. Firstly I
thoroughly research on types of crime scene showed over television and what is the content they
are using to make aware the general public about the crimes prevailing these days, Then I discuss
some of the impacts of these CSI on different age group, I personally went to number of people
and asked them general questions, what they learned from these CSI?, are these shows are
relevant? How these show spreading information amongst them? Youths nowadays are majorly
affected by the crime scene investigation shows. The shows broadcasted on television talks about
more science and their involvement in dealing with the crime scenes. Youths, especially students
seem to be fantasized in large numbers by the kind of tools used in carrying forensic tasks.
Surprising results of these research was youth reaction, most of the youth found these shows
knowledgeable and get aware about the new tools such as DNA fingerprinting and 3D Laser
Scanner, laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, alternative light
photography and others used for carrying forensic tasks have widely grabbed the attention of
people when they see the same on television finding application in solving and tracking crimes.
The evaluation of research is that we analysis that television is the best platform to spread
awareness amongst youth, CSI become more interesting when cases solved with the help of
forensic science. a result it has distorted the public's perception of the criminal justice system,
which in turn has exaggerated the investigation of police department, fear of crimes, and
attitudes about criminal justice.
