Action Video Gaming Enhances Brain Structure: Increased Cortical Thickness and White Matter Integrity in Occipital and Parietal Regions.
Background: Action video games-particularly first-person-shooter (FPS), real-time-strategy (RTS), multiplayer-online-battle-arena (MOBA), and battle-royale (BR) titles-have been linked to enhanced visuospatial skills, yet their impact on brain structure remains unclear.
Purpose: To examine, using a cross-sectional design, whether long-term exposure to high-speed genres is associated with variations in cortical thickness and white matter microstructure.
Methods: Structural and diffusion MRI were acquired from 27 video-game players (VGPs) and 19 non-video-game players (NVGPs). FreeSurfer-derived cortical thickness and DSI-Studio quantitative anisotropy (QA) were compared between groups, co-varying for intracranial volume. All p-values were Holm-Bonferroni- and FDR-corrected; bootstrap 95% CIs are reported.
Results: VGPs showed greater cortical thickness in right inferior and superior parietal, supramarginal, and precuneus cortices (ηp2 = 0.12-0.21) and higher QA along right SOG-SPL and left SOG-IPL tracts.
Conclusions: Frequent action gaming is associated with greater cortical thickness in the dorsal stream and enhanced occipito-parietal connectivity. However, causal inference is precluded; longitudinal work is warranted.
期刊介绍：
Brain Sciences (ISSN 2076-3425) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes original articles, critical reviews, research notes and short communications in the areas of cognitive neuroscience, developmental neuroscience, molecular and cellular neuroscience, neural engineering, neuroimaging, neurolinguistics, neuropathy, systems neuroscience, and theoretical and computational neuroscience. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files or software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
