Lets talk video games.

Lets talk video games because I am playing the Mr. Craig Anderson tomorrow and I want to tell everyone a little about my (his) studies!

I, Craig, did a sweet meta-analysis on video games and aggression. What a fascinating find I found. (I hope you stumble upon this matty(husband))
Lets start out with the fact that Video Game exposure was positively associated with
1. aggressive behavior
2. aggressive cognition (aggressive thoughts)
3. aggressive affect (aggressive mood)

All three of these results were reliably found in experimental studies.... cross sectional.. and dun dun dun.... longitudinal. BAM watch out little boys playing M games..

Video game exposure was ..(here come 3 even worse effects of VG's)... positively correlated with:
1. Desensitization
2. Lack of Empathy
3. Lack of Prosocial Behavior

BAM!!!.... what now. I'll get back to this later...
