Despite their popularity, online video games have been met with
suspicion by the popular media and academic community. In
particular, there is a growing concern that online video game play
may be associated with deficits in social functioning. Due to a
lack of empirical consistency, the debate surrounding the potential
impact of online video game play on a user's sociability remains an
active one. This book contributes to this debate by exploring the
potential impact of online video game involvement on social
competence outcomes, theoretically and empirically. Through
empirical research, Kowert examines the relationships between
online video game involvement, social goals, and social skills and
discusses the underlying mechanisms of these effects.
