“…Predominantly preferred games are those with violent content. (Li, Du and Gao, 2020) The view that disruptive behaviour and anger is related to playing was defended and the time spent was seen as an important factor. (Weinstein,2010; koon 2005) When the relationship between the playing time and anger and destructive behaviour was examined, it was seen that there was a significant relationship.…”

In this case, it has become important to understand the extent of the psychological effects of media contents on consumers.The level of consumption of violent video games in which age range and the level of trait anger-anger style is aimed to reveal.The sample of the study consisted of 286 students. Of the participants, 147 (51.4%) were female and 139 (48.6%) were male. Boys (33.3%;n=39) and high school students (33.7%;n=28) play violent video games more frequently.

“…Gamers tend to experience higher emotional investment in video games than real-life experience [26]. Moral disengagement of a parent can play a partial mediating role between video games' exposure and adolescent aggression; anger and hostility played a partial mediating role between violent video games' exposure and physical attack [27]. Likewise, even though there is a negative effect in playing the violent game, they were still gamers willing to invite themselves into such a gaming environment [26].…”

Understanding what motivates a gamer to pay to play a game could enhance the gaming industry. One of the ways to understand game players experiences is through exploration via their text communication. This study explores text communication posted on the Steam digital distribution platform on paid-play games. A total of 7255 gamer text communicated were collected and analysed. Reviews from the past pinpointed that elements such as social influence, entertaining features, graphic design, music, and soundtrack used in the game could influence the game playing experience. To study those, we use mix-method (qualitative and quantitative) methods to analyse the data. We invite three human coders to categorise statements associating with its elements and aspects. Next, with the aid of Wmatrix, a semantic analysis system, we tabulate and elaborate the emotion words associating with the gameplay elements. The result shows that the positive feeling of love and joy highly encourages the gamer's overall game playing experience. Elements such as the storyline, design of the Avatar and the entertaining features are the primary motivation of the gameplay.

Introduction: Brain Functional Performance is a collection of excellent mental processing that provides a framework for achieving goals based on targeted behaviors. Disorders in executive functions make it difficult for a person to perform everyday tasks. One of the phenomena that have been highlighted in various media is the violent phenomenon that adolescents welcome with the production of violent movies. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effect of violent movies on risky decision making and behavioral inhibition of adolescents and compare it with melodrama. Method: This study was conducted with a quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test with a control group among 60 adolescents in Tehran (30 girls and 30 boys) using the available sampling method. For this purpose, neurological tests of Iowa Gambling and Go-No Go were used. Findings: The results showed that violent movies caused a significant increase in risky decision making (P<0.05). In addition, these types of movies caused a significant decrease in behavioral inhibition among adolescents (P<0.05). Conclusion: Movies that have a rude story and content that glorifies violence harm adolescents' decision making and deterrence, leading them to make risky decisions and inadequate inhibition.
