This book addresses the ongoing scientific debates regarding video
games and their effects on players. The book features opposing
perspectives and offers point and counterpoint exchanges in which
researchers on both sides of a specific topic make their best case
for their findings and analysis. Chapters cover both positive and
negative effects of video games on players' behavior and cognition,
from contributing to violence and alienation to promoting
therapeutic outcomes for types of cognitive dysfunction. The
contrasting viewpoints model presents respectful scientific debate,
encourages open dialogue, and allows readers to come to informed
conclusions. Key questions addressed include: * Do violent video
games promote violence? * Does video game addiction exist? * Should
parents limit children's use of interactive media? * Do action
video games promote visual attention? * Does sexist content in
video games promote misogyny in real life? * Can video games slow
the progress of dementia? * Are video games socially isolating?
Video Game Influences on Aggression, Cognition, and Attention is a
must-have resource for researchers, clinicians and professionals as
well as graduate students in developmental psychology, social work,
educational policy and politics, criminology/criminal justice,
child and school psychology, sociology, media law, and other
related disciplines.
