Assignment 16-Aiden Beach

Makarova, Elena Aleksandrovna, and Elena Lvovna Makarova. “Aggressive Behavior in Online Games and Cybervictimization of Teenagers and Adolescents.” International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, vol. 12, no. 2, Dec. 2019, pp. 157–165, https://www.ie jee.com/index.php/IEJEE. Accessed 17 Dec. 2020.


This scholarly article is good for research, because it studies how video games can cause cyberbullying between teenagers. It also was very recently published, being around a year old.


Greitemeyer, Tobias, et al. “Are Everyday Sadists Specifically Attracted to Violent Video Games and Do They Emotionally Benefit from Playing Those Games?” Aggressive Behavior, vol. 45, no. 2, Mar. 2019, pp. 206–213, doi:10.1002/ab.21810. Accessed 17 Dec. 2020.


This scholarly article is very credible and recent, being under two years old. Unlike the other sources, this article contemplates whether or not violent video games can be a good outlet for sadists.


Kühn, Simone, et al. “Does playing violent video games cause aggression? A longitudinal intervention study.” Nature, 13 Mar. 2018, doi:10.1038/s41380-018-0031-7. Accessed 18 Dec. 2020.


This article in a web magazine is not as recent as the other sources, but still very recent, being less than three years old. This article includes several sources of research for their information, and unlike the other sources, this source tests aggression by using two different games of completely different genres.


Anderson, Craig A., et al. “Screen Violence and Youth Behavior.” Pediatrics, Nov. 2017 doi:10.1542/peds. 2016-1758T. Accessed 18 Dec. 2020.


This article is slightly over three years old, but is still very recent, and the source it comes from is a very credible foundation. Unlike the other sources, this source uses graphs to show data frequently, and instead of just focusing on aggression, it focuses on other aspects such as arousal and empathy, tying all of those back to aggression.


“Psychologists see violent video games differently than the rest of us.” CNBC, uploaded by CNBC, 22 Dec. 2019, https://www.cnbc.com/2019/12/20/scientists-disagree-complete ly-on-the-impact-of-violent-video-games.html.


This video is just under a year old and comes from a very credible news source. The way this source differs from the other sources is that since it’s a video, they can and do bring in psychiatrists to talk to live about video games being linked with aggression.
