Study proves conclusively that violent video game play makes more aggressive kids

Recommended Posts

Iowa State University Distinguished Professor of Psychology Craig Anderson has made much of his life's work studying how violent video game play affects youth behavior. And he says a new study he led, analyzing 130 research reports on more than 130,000 subjects worldwide, proves conclusively that exposure to violent video games makes more aggressive, less caring kids -- regardless of their age, sex or culture.

The study was published today in the March 2010 issue of the Psychological Bulletin, an American Psychological Association journal. It reports that exposure to violent video games is a causal risk factor for increased aggressive thoughts and behavior, and decreased empathy and prosocial behavior in youths.

Mai pe intelelesu lu' Ion : Daca obisnuiesti sa joci jocuri agresive ai tendinta sa devii mai agresiv, sa iti pese din ce in ce mai putin de restul lumii (inclusiv familie, prieteni, etc), devii mai retras de societatea "reala" si puterea de a empatiza scade, indiferent de culoarea pielii tale, a sexului sau a culturii din care faci parte.
