Computer games good for health: CONFIRMED

[mrswdk]

Digital games, typical of those used on smartphones, may relieve stress after a day’s work more effectively than mindfulness apps, according to a study by UCL and the University of Bath.

In the study, published in JMIR Mental Health, participants were given a 15-minute maths test and then asked to either play a shape-fitting game or use a mindfulness app. Those in a control group were given a fidget-spinner toy.

Participants who played the shape-fitting game (“Block! Hexa Puzzle”) reported feeling more energised and less tired afterwards, while those in the mindfulness and fidget-spinner groups reported the opposite: their level of “energetic arousal” appeared to decline.

there's so much wrong with the conclusions being drawn or that appear to be being drawn in that paragraph you just quoted.

also, in the design of that experiment, I have 0 clue as to how to design those but i can tell you for every 3 words i read i saw multiple possibilities of reasons and what might be going on really.


i have no idea about the credibility of the source or the credibility of the experiment but if that's what "researchers" do, f*ck.



finally, i know you like mocking shit, mrs, but if that doesn't ring like 10000 bells in your herpes swollen brain.. you know, like, 'maybe that's too dumb even for my character to post in CC'.. then the syphilis has really taken its toll now.

If you're that interested in the structure of the study then why not read the whole article and see if you still have a problem with it?

there's so much i could tell about this i'm just not going to.

i'm sure you're smart to know a third of it already. if you don't, it's your fault.



i'm more interested in calling you a filthy whore.

You seem kind of cranky Nietzsche. Maybe you could wind down by playing some FarmVille.

Do they have Pokemon Go in your region?

That is a great suggestion, 2d. nietzsche clearly is not playing enough video games.

With the powers vested in me by being OP of this thread I prescribe nietzsche one hour per day of Civilization.

i'm gonna play with your sister if that's alright with you.
