However, this is not true. Contradictory to common belief, video games have not been proven to be directly linked to violent behavior. They can actually act as a stress reliever for the people that play them, and it's often the competitive nature of the video game that raises feelings of aggression, not the violence in video games itself. ]]> 2018-03-23 23:59:43 UTC https://padlet.com/etlai100/unb9h83fdy5y/wish/245681424 etlai100 https://padlet.com/etlai100/unb9h83fdy5y/wish/245682848 2018-03-24 00:30:34 UTC https://padlet.com/etlai100/unb9h83fdy5y/wish/245682848 etlai100 https://padlet.com/etlai100/unb9h83fdy5y/wish/245682885 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2Jq7vPxYGg]]> 2018-03-24 00:31:16 UTC https://padlet.com/etlai100/unb9h83fdy5y/wish/245682885 etlai100 https://padlet.com/etlai100/unb9h83fdy5y/wish/245683123 2018-03-24 00:35:38 UTC https://padlet.com/etlai100/unb9h83fdy5y/wish/245683123 etlai100 https://padlet.com/etlai100/unb9h83fdy5y/wish/245684239 https://www.google.com/search?rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS712US714&biw=1366&bih=671&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=QKO1WvKdCI-B8AOkta5Q&q=person+playing+virtual+gun+game&oq=person+playing+virtual+gun+game&gs_l=psy-ab.3...23631.25153.0.25250.9.9.0.0.0.0.77.586.9.9.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..0.0.0....0.AehMi288c7k#imgrc=DYJNPw4Yg-vMTM:

There was no difference in priming between the game that employed 'ragdoll physics' and the game that didn't, as well as no significant difference between the games that used 'real' and 'unreal' solider tactics.'"

Studies that looked at gamers and aggression levels over longer periods found no difference between those who play video games and those who don’t."

[37] Researchers point to the cathartic effect of video games as a possible reason for why higher game sales have been associated with lower crime rates. [84] A peer-reviewed study in the Journal of Adolescent Research concluded that "Boys use games to experience fantasies of power and fame, to explore and master what they perceive as exciting and realistic environments (but distinct from real life), to work through angry feelings or relieve stress, and as social tools."[36] The games serve as a substitute for rough-and-tumble play.

A peer-reviewed study in Psychology of Violence determined that the competitive nature of a video game was related to aggressive behavior, regardless of whether the game contained violent content or not. The researchers concluded: "Because past studies have failed to equate the violent and nonviolent video games on competitiveness, difficulty, and pace of action simultaneously, researchers may have attributed too much of the variability in aggression to the violent content." [125] A follow-up study tracked high school students for four years and came to the same conclusion: the competitive nature of the games led to the increased hostile behavior. [126]"
