INTRODUCTION
A online game that is played mostly or in part over the Internet or another computer
network is referred to as an online game. The design of online games can range from
straightforward text-based settings to the incorporation of intricate graphics and virtual worlds.
The inclusion of online elements within a game can range from being minor features, like an
online leaderboard, to being an integral part of gameplay, like playing against other players.
Some online games can experience a huge surge in popularity as a result of numerous well-
known Twitch streamers and YouTubers playing them. Other games, particularly social games,
Online game culture has dramatically expanded in both breadth and size thanks to
online gaming. Online games have drawn players of all ages, nationalities, and professions. The
content of online games is now being studied by scientists, particularly how players interact in
virtual societies and how that relates to everyday social behavior.The community has developed
a variety of slang words or phrases that can be used for communication inside or outside of
games. With many words like “pwn” and “noob,” as well as their increasingly online nature,
modern video game slang overlaps significantly with internet slang and leetspeak.Another term
that was made popular by the video game community is the abbreviation “AFK” to refer to
The benefits of playing online games include improved focus, quickness, and memory.
They could also speed up information processing in the brain. In addition, playing video games
engages players’ imaginations, which aids in maintaining their attention and fostering a spirit of
perseverance. Internet video games can be used to support your child’s education and impart
important life skills to them. Learn about the advantages that various games have for the growth
of young players. Although games are a form of pleasure, with parents’ assistance and direction

relationships with peers and increase strategic thinking.Also, it can aid young players in
Gaming has also been associated with sleep deprivation, insomnia and circadian rhythm
disorders, depression, aggression, and anxiety, though more studies are needed to establish
the validity and the strength of these connections. Problematic and excessive video gaming is
also associated with maladaptive coping strategies, negative emotions and attitudes, low self-
esteem, loneliness, and poor academic performance. Often the decline in academic
performance is the most easily observed, but the relationship between playing video games and
soft aspects such as feelings of loneliness, loss, self-esteem, social anxiety and social skills is
often overlooked.

You could be concerned about the effects of video games on teenagers if you notice your
adolescent spending a lot of time playing or multitasking while doing so. We scarcely know any
teenagers who don’t enjoy playing video games and participating in electronic sports (esports). As a
result, a research indicated that 97% of teenagers and kids in the Philippines spend at least an hour
every day playing video games and other forms of mobile gaming (1). Continue reading as we go into

If you see your adolescent spending a lot of time playing video games or multitasking while
doing so, you may have concerns about the effects of video games on teenagers. Teenagers who don’t
appreciate playing video games and engaging in electronic sports are rare (esports). As a result, a study
found that 97% of American teenagers and children play video games and other mobile games for at
least an hour each day (1). Read on for more information about the advantages and disadvantages of
video games for teenagers, as well as some red flags of video game addiction and management
tips.According to experts who conducted a meta-analysis of the data on the positive effects of violent
video games. (Kardefelt-Winther, 2014) Among other things, members of the second critical group of
scholars point to the manner that we are still unsure whether online gaming as a hobby, with the former
potentially highly correlated with the latter but nonetheless distinct (Charlton & Danforth, 2007) Also,
we are unable to clearly distinguish between "problem" online play and vigorous and healthy
"engagement" and interest in gaming as a pastime, despite the fact that the former may be strongly
connected with the latter yet still be clearly separate (Charlton and Danforth,2007; Griffiths et al.,2015;
Lavigne ,2009).Many studies have linked positive playing experiences to Yee's three main objectives. For
instance, McGonical and others point out that overcoming obstacles results in significant moments of
achievement that are essential to the enjoyment of many online and other games (Charlton & Danforth,
2007). In fact, playing online games with so-called "real-life" or offline pals has been linked to more
Other studies categorically label protracted online social gaming as hazardous because players
are pursuing an offline existence online, which connects people to online networks in potentially
harmful, even “addictive,” ways (Kardefelt-Winther, 2014b). Here, some players are drawn into groups
and projects that require more and more of their time, sometimes in an unhealthy attempt to avoid
obligations and issues in the real world. Over time, this can harm players’ psyches and offline social lives
as their enjoyment of gaming takes on “addictive” qualities (Hussain et al., 2015; Kardefelt-Winther,
2014a, 2014b). Finally, it has been shown that gamers, in their own assessment, get unduly involved in
online gaming realities to the cost of their offline lives, motivated by a desire to escape offline difficulties
and responsibilities through immersion in online worlds (Caplan et al.,2001) Members of online play
groups must understand and psychologically "internalize" (D'Andrade, 1995; D'Andrade & Strauss, 1992;
Spiro, 1987) their particular cultural "models" or understandings of "doing good" in order to function
effectively. Culturally internalized normative goals—socially learned and transmitted in the act of play
For instance, anthropologists and others have looked at how common cultural norms influence how
gamers learn to like the game and occasionally use the vocabulary and frame of "addiction" to express
their concern over gaming.(Castronova, 2008; Nardi, 2010; Snodgrass, Lacy, et al., 2016; Stromberg,
2009). (Castronova, 2008; Nardi, 2010; Snodgrass, Lacy, et al., 2016; Stromberg, 2009).
According to studies, this kind of gaming helps young players improve their multitasking
abilities. Encourages cooperation and self-assurance. Young players gain from online multiplayer gaming
because it gives them the chance to assume a variety of roles, such leading teams or cooperating with
other players to win. Children’s confidence can be boosted by working together and learning from one
another via the shared experience.Enhances Cognitive Functions: Playing online games can help online
gamers develop their cognitive abilities.Accuracy and Decision-Making – Online players are capable of
making decisions quickly. Playing online games teaches the brain to make decisions quickly without
sacrificing accuracy. There is no question that you can use these games to help you make snap
decisions.Hand and Eye Coordination – It goes without saying that online gamers will need the best
hand-eye coordination possible to play their games. To be successful, players must use both their hand
and eye to play every online game.Improve Teamwork – Online multiplayer games will improve
teamwork among players. The players will make the most of their abilities to help their team win the
match. The players will get knowledge about working together to win games.Similar to real life, the
player learns how to manage scarce resources and choose which uses are best. Video games can be
used to train soldiers and surgeons, according to the study. Importantly, decisions made by action-
packed video game players are no less accurate. According to Bavelier, “Action game players make more
correct decisions per unit time. If you are a surgeon or you are in the middle of a battlefield, that can
HEALTH. Visuospatial ability refers to your capacity for object recognition and memory, as well as the
relationships between those things. Video games can help you develop these skills. This is one of the
main positive effects of video games that may be helpful for students and professionals, but will also
serve gamers well in everyday life. A recent study from 2015 from the University of California, Los
Angeles found that spatial ability is important in several fields of study, including mathematics, natural
sciences, engineering, meteorology, and architecture. Visuospatial ability refers to your capacity for
object recognition and memory, as well as the relationships between those things. Video games can
help you develop these skills. This is one of the main positive effects of video games that may be helpful
for students and professionals, but will also serve gamers well in everyday life. A recent study from 2015

EMOTION. Often times, video games provoke thought. The majority of your brain is engaged while you
play video games in order to support higher-level thinking. Depending on how difficult the game is, you
might need to think, plan, and evaluate rapidly. Playing video games engages the deeper brain regions
that support cognitive development and critical thinking. You must complete objectives and goals in the
game. Once you accomplish them, you feel a great deal of happiness, which enhances your general
wellbeing. When you play games that provide you medals or badges for reaching particular milestones,
this sensation of accomplishment is amplified. You have something to strive for when you try to achieve
more.Game emotions can be social emotions when people play games in groups. Players might feel
loyalty to a team member, regret at failing to protect a partner, or schadenfreude (pleasure at the
misfortunes of others) when another player accidentally blows himself up with a grenade during a
competitive game of Halo.When you fail in a game or in other situations, it can be frustrating. Video
games help people learn how to cope with failure and keep trying. This is an important tool for children
to learn and use as they get older. Despite what people may think, playing video games boosts your
mood and has lasting effects. Whether you’re using gaming to spend time with your friends or to release
connect with one another and form a virtual community while collaborating to complete shared
objectives. Very little physical effort is required and few calories are burned when you sit still for hours
on a couch or while staring at a computer screen. Hence, the solution is straightforward: if kids spend
the majority of their time playing video games, they won’t get enough exercise and are more likely to
gain weight. Sitting on a couch or staring at a computer screen for hours requires very little physical
effort and burns limited calories. So the equation is simple: if children spend most of their time playing
video games, they will not get enough exercise and run a higher risk of becoming overweight.However,
it’s not quite as simple as more video-game play means more obesity. Research suggests that some
video games actually encourage more involvement in sports. Kids who play sports-based video games
tend to play more sports. Many of the new engaging games that use the Nintendo Wii-U PlayStation
Move or Xbox Kinect can be very active, burn calories, and actually enhance fitness.Recent studies
indicate that video-game use does not necessarily mean that players are more often out of shape.
Current research suggests that video games involving sports are more often played by children who
already play them in real life. Many of these children use video games for further development of
proficiency in various sports. Research also indicates that video games are less likely to lead to obesity
than television viewing, as players are unable to eat while playing most games.All they do is play video
games. Very little physical effort is required and few calories are burned when you sit still for hours on a
couch or while staring at a computer screen. Hence, the solution is straightforward: if kids spend the
majority of their time playing video games, they won’t get enough exercise and are more likely to gain
weight.It’s not quite as straightforward to assume that greater video game play leads to more obesity.
According to research, some video games really promote increased participation in sports. Children who
play video games with a sports theme are more likely to participate in physical activity. Several brand-
new, captivating games that make use of the Nintendo Wii-U, Xbox Kinect, or PlayStation Move can be
Your physical and emotional health may be negatively impacted by playing video games, or
frequently both. Although each person may experience symptoms differently, it’s important to realize
that gaming disease is known to cause a variety of the symptoms listed here.You likely encounter these
symptoms because you play video games excessively, as is common with most addictions. The more you
play, the more you neglect your social life, profession, family, mental health, and physical health, among
HEALTH. More research is required to determine the validity and intensity of the links between gaming
and sleep disorders like insomnia, circadian rhythm abnormalities, depression, aggressiveness, and
anxiety. It is true that players of online games do not enjoy engaging in other activities that keep them
healthy and fit. Lack of exercise causes health issues like obesity, skeletal and postural difficulties, never
compression, muscle disorders, and numbness in the shoulders, hands, and elbows.The effects of
prolonged computer, tablet, or smartphone use on pupils’ health are quite negative. In the beginning,
there is a detrimental affect on vision that is constantly tense. Sometimes it’s necessary to use
headphones constantly, which puts strain on the ears as well. The second factor is body posture. Sitting
or lying down has a bad impact on your back and neck, and if you don’t change positions frequently, it
could lead to health issues.Internet gaming can help children develop a variety of life skills, focus,
multitask, and stimulate their brains. Addiction to video games, however, has the exact opposite effect
on the brain. Game addicts are the ones who struggle with anxiety and sadness.They are constantly
afraid of everything because they lack the strength and bravery to deal with continuing events. Online
video gamers frequently have mental health issues such as low self-esteem, negative thinking, and
difficulty succeeding at particular tasks.Excessive gaming damages mental health and the brain, which
results in anxiety and sadness. Playing video games can help you recover from psychological trauma.Yet,
those who realize the drawbacks of video games and decide to stop playing are psychologically
handicapped, which leads to anxiety and sadness later on.Lack of sleep also negatively impacts memory
and relationships, which lowers your quality of life overall.A healthy sleep schedule is crucial for general
wellbeing. Experts recommend that you sleep for 7 to 9 hours every day, depending on your age, but if
you play video games until long after midnight, this is practically impossible. When you barely get a few
hours of sleep or don’t get any sleep at all, it can be hard to function regularly.
EMOTION. One of the major drawbacks of video games is that it might make it difficult for you to
control your emotions. It demonstrates that those who have been given an Internet gaming disorder are
more likely to experience depression. Many gamers experience depression as a result of their gaming
behaviors. They start to overlook other facets of their lives as they play video games more and more. For
instance, they neglect healthy practices less social connections.Obviously, gamers who spend the most
of their time playing online games are loners because they are unable to spend time with their friends
and families. They want to be alone themselves constantly if the same thing keeps happening.
PHYSICAL. A sign of gaming addiction because most players spend hours each day seated still. Inactivity
leads to stiffness and pain, but it also increases the risk of developing chronic back issues.Due to the fact
that most addicted gamers don’t want to take the time to eat correctly, gaming addiction is the primary
cause of irregular eating patterns. They eat fast food, which is typically unhealthy, rather than balanced,
healthful meals. In extreme circumstances, the player can decide to skip all meals.A person who is
addicted to gaming won’t take the time to look after themselves. Bathing, washing one’s face, and
brushing one’s teeth and hair are all neglected. If something is a priority, it simply loses importance.Each
player’s experience with these physical consequences will be unique. The strength of the addiction and
the severity of the physical side effects are typically correlated, however this is not always the case. A
gamer who is already overweight will initially be more susceptible to these consequences.Negative
physical. Lack of time for outdoor recreation or studying more essential pursuits. When kids spend a lot
of time playing games, they frequently have no time for other activities. Even schoolwork suffers when a
crucial clash is scheduled for the evening. As a result, there are academic issues and low marks.
Furthermore, such kids do not exercise, spending all of their energy in front of the computer.Playing
video games online for extended periods of time is bad for your physical health. Due to their increased
use of technology, the majority of children today struggle with obesity. Most children can be found
enjoying games and other activities behind closed doors. They start to experience physical aches,
headaches, bad posture, etc.The less you can focus on other activities, the more focused you are on
playing video games. Gaming requires entire concentration, and even if you take a break from it for a
while, you’ll still be mentally immersed in it.Bad sleeping habits, For gamers, getting insufficient sleep is
a typical occurrence. Take Jack from Michigan as an illustration. He described his sleeping patterns as
follows:
Parental awareness of the risk for young children’s gaming addiction is crucial. Children can enjoy and
benefit from playing video games, but in order to avoid addiction, it’s crucial to keep an eye on their
gaming habits.Nonetheless, the following tips can be followed to help prevent gaming addiction in
young children. Try these advice for both adults and children to keep gaming time in check: Establish
time restrictions for play and adhere to them. To avoid playing late into the night, keep phones and
other electronics out of the bedroom. Daily activities should also include exercise.As a general guideline,
take regular breaks of at least five minutes every 45 to 60 minutes. Instead of just setting time
limitations, play games with kids and assist them in finding a variety of enjoyable activities. You should
visit your doctor if you have concerns about the health of someone who plays video games excessively.
Limit your gaming time.Like any other activity, it’s crucial to put limitations on how much time your
child can spend playing video games. This will prevent them from becoming too immersed in the game
and starting to disregard other crucial facets of their life. that students who play video games do their
schoolwork in 34% less time and read 30% less. Students who play video games should establish healthy
routines where they only allow themselves to play after doing the required tasks. It's possible that
parents and students will come to an arrangement in which gaming is prohibited and is only permitted
as a reward after a certain amount of study time or after finishing a particular assignment.Establish
objectives for your offline endeavors, advises Strohman. “Bringing balance is the finest thing you can do.
Spend an hour outside or reading a book instead of an hour online. Make sure it’s at least as long as the
Participate in your child’s video game activities.Participating in your child’s gaming activities is one of
the best strategies to prevent gaming addiction. Talk to them about their actions while playing video
games or while watching them play. By doing this, you’ll be able to comprehend their hobbies and
dietary preferences better and, if necessary, offer more direction.Video games can aid children’s
cognitive development. For instance, I observed my kid playing Legend of Zelda video games when he
was a young adolescent. To move forward, he had to search, bargain, plan, and attempt various
strategies. Many additional games that require planning and problem-solving were being published at
the same time as my research, including Bakugan: Defenders of the Core.Also, “modding,” the process
by which players alter the appearance of their characters and create new game levels, enables
imaginative self-expression, a thorough comprehension of the rules and structure of the game, and
innovative methods of showcasing personalities and hobbies. Hence, even though they aren’t classified
as “educational,” video games can nonetheless teach kids how to make choices, employ methods,
Set a good example.If you want your child to limit their screen time, you should follow suit. Prove to
them that you are capable of engaging in other activities besides staring at a screen.An excellent
resource for younger children to build early learning skills.According to studies, certain games help
young kids develop their early reading skills with the help of their parents and teachers. Preschool apps
like “Endless Alphabet” and games like “Times Table Rock Stars,” which are used in primary schools, can
be excellent resources for teaching kids in an interesting way. Also, thanks to the expansion of
connected toys, kids can play physically while using technology. To bring the in-play action to life,
educational toys like Osmo mix tactile play elements with a device’s camera.Players must keep in mind
and take action when playing immersive games that need strategy and problem-solving abilities to
win.Paraphrase without limits in a great deal of data. Young players’ short- and long-term memory can
be enhanced by playing these kinds of games frequently. They could also speed up information
processing in the brain. In addition, playing video games engages players’ imaginations, which aids in
maintaining their attention and fostering a spirit of perseverance.The focus on detail and quick reflexes
are especially important in games where players must locate goods while fending off other adversaries.
According to studies, this kind of gaming helps young players improve their multitasking abilities.The
more challenging multiplayer online games aid in teaching players how to weigh risk and reward
strategically and analytically. In these games, young players must respond promptly to alterations to the
game. Children can benefit from this kind of gaming by developing skills that can be applied to real-
world jobs that require problem-solving, analytical abilities, and strategic thinking.Games can be a
fantastic way for children to learn about various viewpoints and cultures since they allow them to
immerse themselves in virtual worlds and, occasionally, connect to people from all over the world.
Speak to your youngster about the risks of gaming addiction.Tell them why you believe it’s crucial to
restrict screen time and assure them that you support them if they ever feel like they’re having trouble
with an addiction.In most circumstances, encouraging parents to participate in their children’s gaming
lives is the best way to find a solution. Play together, assist in establishing sensible boundaries, and
actively look for a range of online activities for kids to engage in. Moreover, set time restrictions for
gaming and stick to them, or engage in other daily activities, such as exercise. Long periods of sitting and
playing will be less harmful to your health as a result. Then, as a general rule, take regular breaks of at
least five minutes every 45 to 60 minutes. Instead of just setting time limitations, play games with kids
and assist them in finding a variety of enjoyable activities. If you are worried about a person who is
participating in sports If you play video games too much, you should see your doctor. You have little
control over the online contacts your kids make. If you let your kids play mature-rated games, they’ll
