Visual skills
"While video games may look totally meaningless at the
fact they are able to radically improve the perception of video "
Daphne Bavel and Shawn Green
The researchers - their names are Shawn Green and Daphne Bavel - seated next to enthusiastic "strelyalschikov"
and people who have never played such games, they were offered a series of
psychological tests to keep track of basic visual skills.
Participants in the experiment were to observe the image, which appeared on the edge
monitors. Gamers coped with this problem much better and much faster
especially in those cases where there is a picture in front of the audience did not contain
only the main image, but also "interference."
Compulsive gamblers have shown remarkable abilities in another test, which aims to
was to measure how quickly you can attract the attention of
or any other person. Participants are asked to recognize the character of the experiment,
encountered on the screen for a very short time - from 0,2 to 0,5
seconds.
"Computer games enhances the ability to monitor video images and
spatial variations "- write Greene and Bavel in an article published
magazine Neychur.
Training

experiment actually caused permanent video games, researchers
to train others - and then conducted the experiment again.
Coached by two games. One group played a "shooter" during the Second
World Medal of Honor, the other - in the classic "Tetris."
Game lasted for 10 days - for one hour. Then - a repeat test.
Those who fought in the Medal of Honor, showed marked improvement
visual skills. Those who played "Tetris", change little
recorded.
"Forcing players simultaneously perform a variety of different tasks, arcade
video games to extend the limit of their various aspects of visual attention -
the scientists write. - While video games may look quite meaningless
in fact they are able to radically improve the process of perception
video.
