specific details given.
In a study that tracked more than 4,000 adolescents as they grew up, physicians Dr. Brian
Primack and his colleagues found that for every extra hour a teenager spends playing video
games (or watching television) on an average day, he or she is eight percent more likely to
develop depression as an adult.
What Primack and his associates observed is that teens' experiences shape their developing
brains, such that playing video games and watching television may replace positive academic,
athletic, and social activities that might otherwise give young people a sense of mastery and
self-respect.
Video games and television teach children to be passive, and to judge themselves against
characters whose looks and accomplishments are out of reach except for only a few.
