Video gaming and working memory: A large-scale cross-sectional correlative study

作者:

Highlights:

• Video gaming is associated with working memory performance in our cross-sectional design.

• Study design modulated the strength of the associations.

• An extreme groups design yielded stronger effects as compared with a whole-group design.

• People are relatively accurate at estimating their video game playing time.
