Game over: Asian Americans and video game representation

Action video game players form more detailed representation of objects.

Previous research has clearly demonstrated action video game improvements in visual and spatial attention. The present study investigated action video game related changes in the resolution of representations for both dynamic and stationary objects by comparing video game players (VGP) and non-video game players (NVGP). In a color wheel task (adapted from Zhang & Luck, 2008) where viewers were ...

The Mind Weave weather model is designed to loosely model real world weather systems while allowing magic to affect parameters of the model. The Mind Weave magic system can effect changes in atmospheric moisture, temperature, and winds. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the behavior of this weather model and produce correlation matrices that help us to predict how a spell cast by a mage w...

The picture above is just to show the basic idea of ...
