A 2015 meta-analysis indicated that pornography consumption is correlated with sexual aggression (Journal of Communication, "A Meta‐Analysis of Pornography Consumption and Actual Acts of Sexual Aggression in General Population Studies" (2016) by Paul J. Wright, Robert S. Tokunaga, Ashley Kraus). However, it is unknown if pornography promotes, reduces or has no effect on sexual aggression at an individual level, because this correlation may not be causal. In fact, counterintuitively, pornography has been found to reduce sexual aggression at a societal level. A 2009 review stated that all scientific investigations of increases in the availability of pornography show no change or a decrease in the level of sexual offending ("Pornography, public acceptance and sex related crime: A review" (2009) by Milton Diamond in International Journal of Law and Psychiatry).
