Three useful links

In this section I would like to discus these three web pages:




First link shows unbiased data about effects of video games on children. How it sharpens their senses, improves coordination of moves and also how gaming makes children more aggressive, can teach them to eat unhealthy and so on.
The second link is focused on "Myths and Facts" of video games. The author (Craig A. Anderson, PhD) mostly focuses on the aggressivity of youngsters, their health and other topics that are frequently connected with Video Games. His studies show evidence, that adolescents' deliquency possibly could not be connected with video games.
Third link (for me the most engaging) gets us to the web pages of Rochester Institute of Technology and shows us how the video games influence psychics of kids. Mr. Thomas A. Kooijmans shows us many interesting data and statistics, such as: "Chambers and Ascione (1987) report that 100% of elementary and high school students surveyed had played video games at least once. That was more than 15 years ago. This is an obvious indicator that video games have entered the mainstream media, and that more research needs to be done on the effects of video games on adolescence." (Thomas A. Kooijmans, www.personalityresearch.org, May 17, 2010)
I found all of these web sites engaging for people interested in video games topic. Moreover, each of the sites has plenty of works cited, so anyone considerin writing paper about this theme will appreciate it.
