Violent Video Games (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780737771961)

While organizations such as the American Psychological Association release statements that research supports a link between violent video game use and an increase in aggressive behavior, independent studies (such as one by Whitney DeCamp), show little or no relationship between the two. Those who believe that there are no significant links, caution researchers to avoid compiling evidence 'in a vacuum.' This sets the stage for a very hot debate, especially amongst any of your readers who love violent video games. A variety of narratives are compiled through eyewitness accounts, governmental views, scientific analysis, and newspaper accounts, so readers can decide for themselves how they feel about this issue. Important facts are pulled out from the main text and highlighted so that readers can isolate details for their research or report writing.
