Reuters - Violent video games tied to teen aggression
A new study (mostly using self-reporting) shows teen aggression increasing when playing violent video games over a long period of time (at least 6 months). Scientists also tried to take one's previous inclination for aggression into account in their calculations. This was reported from a study of both Japanese and US teens. Those who played violent video games were more likely to get involved in physical fights. The theory is that games show violence as an acceptable solution to mundane conflicts. Yup.
