Abstract

The effects of violent video games on cognitive processes are still not clear. The main goal of this study was to investigate the effect of violent video games on different cognitive processes. A neuropsychological battery which consists of response inhibition, emotional memory, working memory, object recognition, and visual-spatial perception task was used to measure cognitive functions. Ninety eight participants were separated into three groups (namely addicted, risk group, and controls) based on the amount of time they spent for violent game playing (per week). DSM-based pathological game addiction symptoms and their scores are measured on game addiction scale. We found significant effects of excessive video game playing on working memory, object recognition, and response inhibition, whereas no significant differences were found among the groups on emotional memory and visual spatial perception.
