“…Experimental studies have shown that cooperation during gaming reduces aggression in cognition (Schmierbach, 2010), affect (Eastin, 2007), and behavior (Jerabeck & Ferguson, 2013;Velez, Greitemeyer, Whitaker, Ewoldsen, & Bushman, 2016). Playing a cooperative game together also has been shown to increase prosocial behavior (Dolgov, Graves, Nearents, Schwark, & Brooks Volkman, 2014;Ewoldsen et al, 2012). Cooperative games were found to increase empathy (Emmerich & Masuch, 2013;Greitemeyer, 2013), feelings of trust and cohesion towards a play partner (Greitemeyer & Cox, 2013;Waddell & Peng, 2014), and a more positive attitude towards outgroup members (Adachi, Hodson, Willoughby, & Zanette, 2014;Stiff & Bowen, 2016;Velez, Mahood, Ewoldsen, & Moyer-Gusé, 2014).…”
