Fight fire with rainbows: The effects of displayed violence, difficulty, and performance in digital games on affect, aggression, and physiological arousal
作者：
Highlights：
• No impact of violent content on any outcome variable.
• No impact of game difficulty on arousal, behaviour, or affect.
• Difficulty slowed down cognitive processing due to exhaustion.
• In-game success (number of kills and deaths) was only related to post-game affect.
• The right amount of challenge is important for a positive game experience.
