El efecto de los videojuegos en las cogniciones positivas y negativas

Tailson Evangelista Mariano, Valdiney Veloso Gouveia, Carlos Eduardo Pimentel

Resumen


Los efectos de los videojuegos atrajeron la atención de muchos investigadores en psicología, especialmente cuando se sugiere comportamientos agresivos relacionados con juegos violentos. Los juegos con contenido pro-social despertaron menos atención, pero las investigaciones en el área revelan que los juegos pro-sociales aumentan las cogniciones positivas y que los juegos violentos aumentan la incidencia de cogniciones agresivas. El objetivo del actual estudio fue verificar el efecto de juegos violentos y pro-sociales sobre las cogniciones de los jugadores dentro de dos días de experimentos. Para este fin, 30 participantes estudiantes de graduación jugó durante 20 minutos un tipo de juego en cada día de experimento y respondieron a una tarea de asociación libre de palabras para categorizar sus cogniciones en positivas o negativas. Los principales hallazgos mostraron que los juegos violentos aumentaron la ocurrencia de cogniciones negativas, pero los juegos pro-sociales no aumentaron las cogniciones pro-sociales. Por último, estos descubrimientos se discuten sobre la base de investigaciones anteriores sobre el efecto de juegos de videojuegos violentos y pro-sociales.
