More agression in video games.

Also on http://www.bbc.co.uk/ I found another study which showed the negative sides of video gaming.

Dr Craig Anderson from Iowa State University of Science and Technology and Dr Karen Dill, from Lenoir-Rhyne College carried out two studies.

The first showed that young men who are habitually aggressive may be particularly vunerable to the effects of repeated exposure to violent games.

The second showed that everybody can become temporaliy more aggressive after even a brief exposure to violent video games.

In the firs study 227 college students were asked to rate their level of aggression. Dr Anderson said: "we found that students who rorted playing more violent video games in junior high engaged more in aggressive behaviour. We also found that the amount of time spent playing video games in the past was associated withlower academic grades in college."

In the second study, 210 college students played either a violent video game (Wolfstien 3D) or non-violent video game (Myst).

A short tim later the students whom played the violent video games were found to be more aggressive that who played non violent video games. Dr Anderson said : "Violent video games provide a forum for learning and practising aggressive solutions to conflict situations."
