Research Question:
How do video games effect our youth?
Precise Claim:
Popular opinion states that video games have a negative impact on the physical and psychological development of our children, however studies show that they actually have a positive impact.
Reasons/blueprint:
-Youth who play video games show an increase in cognitive abilities
-After playing video games children are able to pick up on details in real life that a normal person would overlook
-Children have an increase in positive behavior as opposed to a negative or aggressive behavior after playing violent and non-violent video games alike
Complete Thesis Statement:
In the aftermath of such tragedies as the Columbine shootings and other such violent crimes committed by children has held the video game industry under scrutiny. However since claims have been made that the video games pushed these youth to act out on their violent impulses, many Psychologists and other professionals have began studies which contradict such claims. These studies have shown that children actually posses higher cognitive abilities, sharper visual reflexes, and an overall more positive behavior after playing video games.
