"Our study suggests that playing certain types of violent video
games may have different short-term effects on brain function than
playing a nonviolent but exciting game," Dr. Mathews and colleagues
randomly assigned 44 adolescents to play either a violent video
game (Medal of Honor: Frontline) or a nonviolent video game (Need
for Speed: Underground) for 30 minutes. The researchers then used
an fMRI to study brain function during a series of tasks measuring
inhibition and concentration Compared with the group that played
the nonviolent game, the group that played the violent video game
demonstrated less activity in the prefrontal portions of the brain,
which are involved in concentration and self-control, and more
activity in the amygdala, which is involved in emotional arousal.
