Can overplaying video games rewire your brain? The cognitive process I am studying is changes to the brain after playing video games and how a person can damage their vision. I have read articles that suggest video games can cause substance abuse to occur. How can playing video games influence a person? Some articles I have come across explains playing video games for too long can cause a person to start showing disruptive behavior. Over playing video games can cause one to have problems such as not being able to focus for a long amount of time. In terms of the brain, if one is constantly playing video games for 10 plus hours, the brain would start to signal to that person they would have to be playing games all the time.  Another problem with the brain is it can potentially rewire itself, especially if it isn’t fully developed yet. Some articles I have read explained that at the age of 25 and on the brain is fully developed. Under the age of 25 the brain isn’t fully developed. This can cause problems when the brain isn’t fully developed, because it can possibly rewire itself.Physiological change occur. Behaviors start to change when video games are being played more than usual. Aggressive behaviors are shown, when violent video games are played. Playing to many violent games can cause affect parts of the brain, such as emotionally.

I chose to study this topic, because it fascinates me how some people can be addicted to game while others can play video games all day and nothing happens to them. I want to know how playing video games affect fully developed brains, compared to those whose brains aren’t fully developed yet.

Thesis: Can overplaying video games rewire your brain?Playing video games for too long can cause a negative impact on a person life along with having an impact on their brain.
