Read More »A new study finds that playing video games boosted children’s intelligence by 2.5 IQ points In today’s world, video games are only becoming more popular. As of 2020, more than 200 million Americans play video games in the United States alone. That means that approximately 65 percent of American adults play video games. Since the 1970s, video games have sparked debate. Concerns have been raised by parents and children’s advocates that violent video games can influence young players to commit violent acts in real life. However, video games are also thought to be beneficial to both the mind and the body. Action video game players had higher hand-eye coordination and visuomotor abilities than nonplayers. According to a recent study, playing video games might even boost your intelligence. Researchers at Sweden’s Karolinska Institutet examined how children’s screen habits link with how their cognitive abilities grow over time. They discovered that youngsters who spent more time than average playing video games increased their IQ more than the average, however TV watching or social media had no effect. The results have been published in the journal Scientific Reports. Children are spending an increasing amount of time in front of devices. It is fiercely discussed how this impacts their health and if it has a positive or detrimental influence on their cognitive abilities. Researchers from Karolinska Institutet and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam investigated the relationship between screen usage and intellect over time for this study. The research included over 9,000 boys and girls from the United States. The children were nine or ten years old when they took a battery of psychological tests to assess their general cognitive ability (intelligence). The children and their parents were also asked how much time they spend watching television and movies, playing video games, and using social media.

This is consistent with several experimental studies of video-game playing.”
