Video game addiction
The document discusses video game addiction, defining it as excessive gaming that interferes with daily life. It provides key figures, showing that the average gamer is 32 years old and spends 18 hours per week gaming, and 10% of gamers develop an addiction. The causes of addiction discussed are finding confidence and satisfaction in the virtual world that games provide. The aftermaths include social withdrawal, emotional and physical issues, and loss of control. Suggested solutions are setting time limits, engaging in outdoor activities, and avoiding constant computer use. The conclusion is that while not officially a disorder, video game addiction can degrade social life.
Gaming Addiction
Video game addiction is defined as playing video games excessively to an unhealthy degree, most commonly among those aged 10-18. Games are designed to be addictive by fulfilling human psychological needs easily and providing escapism. Consequences of addiction include chronic back pain, neglecting family and friends, migraines, and long term sleeping problems. While 12% of gamers showed signs of addiction in 2009, addiction can be avoided by moderating play time and prioritizing school and family over games.

Video Games Addiction
Video game addiction occurs when gaming interferes with relationships and life goals. Games are designed similarly to casinos, providing small wins to keep players engaged through high scores, completion, role-playing, and social aspects. Signs of addiction include only feeling happy while gaming, thinking about games instead of other tasks, spending more time gaming than socializing, and lying about gaming time. Consequences involve neglected relationships, sleep issues, and physical health problems. Treatment options include specialized therapy, outdoor activities, exercise, and social clubs to replace gaming habits. While not officially recognized, video game addiction is being studied to determine if it merits classification as a mental disorder.

Addiction to Video games
Video game addiction can have serious negative consequences similar to other forms of addiction. It affects the brain's reward system and causes people to crave more gaming. This can lead to negative impacts on physical health like exhaustion, as well as social isolation and neglecting responsibilities as addicted gamers spend more and more time immersed in virtual worlds. While there may be no intoxicating substances involved, video game addiction activates the same brain regions and chemicals as addictions to drugs and alcohol. It can therefore be a serious issue worth treating.

http://www.theguardian.com/science/brain-flapping/2013/sep/20/video-games-cause-violence-claims-cause-violence
Summary:
According to the article of the guardian.com, which focuses on the claims that video games lead to violence by Dean Burnett. Video games are the cause of violence that is what the media says when a school shooting happens. Video games are always blamed on those acts. Recent studies have shown that video games really do cause violence. Dr Mario Vance conducted a longitudinal study that monitors the anger levels of gamers and the results have shown that there is an increase in aggression and anger levels. The media claims that gamers can’t distinguish between fantasy and reality, but the research proves that there isn’t enough evidence to support that claim. In addition, some people such as Roy Parker are against video games and think that video game should be banned, because of the blood and violence that they show.
Quotations:
"It's ridiculous that they're even allowed. I don't want my children growing up in a world where horrible stuff like that is just out there where anybody can come across it and be damaged by it."
"A bias is one thing, but turning a brutal and deadly shooting into an excuse to attack a tenuously linked entertainment medium? That borders on pathological."
"The media's main concern appears to be that enthusiastic gamers can't differentiate between games and the real world, so violent games will result in violent behaviour. But anyone who has the cognitive faculties to purchase, set up and operate modern games consoles won't have trouble differentiating between a cartoonish fantasy world and reality."
Paraphrasing:
Original paragraph:
Dr Vance and his colleagues assessed daily reports submitted by willing gamers as to their aggression levels and violent tendencies, and over 90% of subjects reported dramatic increases in anger and violent inclinations whenever they viewed a news story that associated video games and violent behavior. The remaining subjects were not included as they were typically too busy punching walls or screaming incoherent threats at traffic. The media's main concern appears to be that enthusiastic gamers can't differentiate between games and the real world, so violent games will result in violent behavior. But anyone who has the cognitive faculties to purchase, set up and operate modern games consoles won't have trouble differentiating between a cartoonish fantasy world and reality.
Paraphrased paragraph:
Dr Vance and his team receive daily reports that video gamers do daily, those reports are about the gamers levels of aggression and violence, and a huge amount of gamers have had a big increase in the level of violence, aggression and anger when they saw an article in a newspap.

This document discusses the blurring lines between gaming and gambling due to new technologies. It notes that many games, especially those played on mobile devices, incorporate gambling-like features such as near-misses and variable rewards that can stimulate dopamine release in similar ways. Research suggests that some electronic games can become addictive for some players, especially youth whose prefrontal cortex is still developing. The document provides recommendations for policies, local systems, and individuals to help address risks and promote responsible gaming.
Production script
The document discusses the video game industry and debates around video games. It notes that the industry has surpassed the music and film industries in revenue. It outlines common arguments that video games can increase violent and criminal behavior in players or that they have no impact and should not be restricted. Researchers have found some links between violent games and aggression but no definitive links to long-term criminal behavior. Later, the document discusses how video games can positively impact players by satisfying basic psychological needs and releasing dopamine during gameplay in ways that could be addictive for some players, especially around loot boxes and microtransactions. Governments have started regulating some gaming mechanics that resemble gambling. Overall, the effects of video games remain debated with no consensus.
App-rehensive: The Blurring Lines of Games and Gambling
This document contains a slide presentation on the blurring lines between gaming and gambling with technology. Some key points:
- Technology and the speed/intensity of games and gambling can activate dopamine release in similar ways to risky behaviors.
- Many youth play free-to-start games that include in-app purchases that resemble gambling. Research shows a percentage of youth gamers exhibit pathological gaming behaviors.
- Policies are needed to address potentially gambling-like monetized games and provide consumer protections for all ages, including education and responsible features within games/apps. Support tools can help individuals at risk monitor usage and spending.
