The First Clear Link Between Violent Video Games And Hostility
Business Insider
Teenagers who play violent video games over a number of years become more aggressive towards other people as a result, a new study has found.
The research findings were said to be the first indication of a clear link between a sustained period of playing violent games and subsequent increases in hostile behaviour.
Girls who played them during their school years were found to be affected just as much as boys.
The research team at Brock University in Canada said their results were "concerning" and argued that violent games could "reinforce the notion that aggression is an effective and appropriate way to deal with conflict and anger."
