This document outlines a research proposal on the effects of playing video games every day. The proposal was submitted by a student for their INSA 483 seminar course. The introduction notes the student's interest in the topic due to their brother playing video games all day. The literature review discusses previous studies finding that excessive video game exposure can negatively impact empathy, morality, and aggression in adolescents. The proposed research method is to conduct interviews and surveys of kids and adults, both in public places in Jeddah and on social media, to ask questions about video game addiction and the effects of long-term play. A timeline is provided outlining the planned completion of chapters and sections of the research paper over 4 weeks.

4. Introduction:
I have been interested in this topic because my brother staying
in front of his computer playing video games all day.
The rising popularity of video games has brought about an
explosion of research on video game effects. The increasingly
large research literature on this topic consistently shows that
video game effects are not trivial; significant effects of video
game play are found in short-term and long-term contexts, and
across a wide range of domains. Some of these effects have
been extensively researched and are well established, such as
the effects of violent video games on aggression. However,
recent research has revealed a number other positive and
negative consequences of video game play, such as beneficial
effects of prosocial games on helping, positive effects of action
games on visual-spatial skills, harmful effects of fast-paced
games on cognitive control, and the phenomenon of video
game addiction.

7. Literature review:
In previous studies it says Video game exposure in
adolescents aged between 8 and 18 years has
been estimated to be around 15 h per week so
Apart from an overall relationship between
gaming and negative behavior, research suggests a
link between violent video game exposure and
isolated behavioral traits and behaviors, such as
empathy, morality, and aggression. The analysis of
longitudinal, experimental and cross-sectional
studies suggests that there is a negative
relationship between violent video gaming and
empathy.
