چکیده
It has been claimed that video gamers possess increased perceptual and cognitive skills compared to non-video gamers. Here, we examined which extent gaming performance in CS:GO (Counter-Strike: Global Offensive) correlates with visual performance. We tested 94 players ranging from beginners experts a battery of paradigms, such as acuity contrast detection. In addition, assessed specific skills, shooting tracking, administered personality traits. All measures together explained about 70% the variance players’ rank. particular, regression models showed few abilities, periphery susceptibility Honeycomb illusion, were strongly associated Although causality effect remains unknown, our results show high-rank perform better certain low-rank players.

An action video game modifies visual processing.
In a recent paper, Shawn Green and Daphne Bavelier show that playing an action video game markedly improved subjects performance on a range of visual skills related to detecting objects in briefly flashed displays. This is noteworthy as previous studies on perceptual learning, which have commonly focused on well-controlled and rather abstract tasks, found little transfer of learning to novel st...

متن کاملEffects of action video game training on visual working memory.
The ability to hold visual information in mind over a brief delay is critical for acquiring information and navigating a complex visual world. Despite the ubiquitous nature of visual working memory (VWM) in our everyday lives, this system is fundamentally limited in capacity. Therefore, the potential to improve VWM through training is a growing area of research. An emerging body of literature s...
متن کاملHow Do People's Concepts of Place Relate to Physical Locations?
Advances in GPS and wireless networking technologies have enabled a new class of location-aware applications, including location tracking [10,2], location-enhanced messaging [3,9], location-based gaming(www.botfighters.com), and navigation aids for the visually impaired [12]. However, these applications typically represent places quite simply, as a geographical point or a point plus radius. We ...
