This week and next week are going by extremely fast and it has been hard trying to keep up with the amount of workload that has been piled up. The final projects at the end of the semester require more time and effort than the rest of the semester and it is hard trying to split it up into 5 classes. Since the workload has been heavy this week I have only included a few more articles and put their details in the final paper. My project this semester has been to find the effects of video games on the brain. Overall, the research articles I have found almost include the same set of skills that are improved in particularly action video gamers. Similar skills are visual attention, selective attention, multitasking and others just to name a few. The most interesting skills that stood out to me were the ability to mentally rotate objects more accurately and the ability to multitask. The ability of multitasking exists in action video game players and their time switching between tasks is significantly cut than an individual who can multitask.
