A new study shows that people who play video games are better at making decisions and their brain activity is better and stronger.
Researchers at Georgia State University say they analyzed the brain activity of a sample of 47 people. Out of which 28 people were gamers who played video games regularly. For this analysis, they used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
"Once the relevant brain networks are identified, video game-playing exercises can be used to effectively train and treat decision-making," says researcher Mukesh Dhamala.
During the experiment, participants were asked to press a button upon the movement of a dot, while refraining from pressing a button when there was no movement.
As a result of the observation, the brains of the video gamers were more active and active. Whereas those who played video games gave faster and more accurate answers than those who did not play video games.
From this experiment, researchers have come to the conclusion that video games have a positive effect on the human brain. This leads to better decision making skills and various tasks can be completed in a better manner.
