“…Asimismo, Akel et al (2023), en un estudio desarrollado en jóvenes libaneses, reveló que los varones tienen una mayor exposición a VG violentos y una mayor aprobación de la agresión, ansiedad, insomnio y dependencia. Ahora bien, a pesar de que los videojuegos son más practicados por varones (Yao et al, 2022), en los últimos años existe un crecimiento considerable de mujeres que desarrollan dependencia a videojuegos (Aleissa et al, 2022;Kneer et al, 2022).…”

Introducción. El COVID-19 cambió la forma tradicional de educar, confinó a los estudiantes en sus hogares y favoreció el uso excesivo de la tecnología y de entretenimientos como los videojuegos; precisamente el consumo desmedido de estos últimos, alteró el comportamiento de los adolescentes e incrementó sus niveles de agresividad. El presente estudio analizó la dependencia a videojuegos como predictor de agresividad en adolescentes de Lima Este durante el confinamiento por el COVID-19. Método. El estudio fue no experimental, de alcance predictivo, enfoque cuantitativo y corte transversal. La muestra estuvo constituida por 430 estudiantes de secundaria de 11 a 17 años, que pertenecían a instituciones educativas de Lima Este, a quienes se les administró el Test de Dependencia a Videojuegos (TDV) y el Cuestionario de Agresión. Resultados. Los resultados mostraron una correlación significativa entre las variables (r=.360**; p=.000), lo que indica que la dependencia a videojuegos predice la agresividad hasta en un 13 % (R=.360; R2=.130). Discusión y conclusiones. Existe una correlación altamente positiva entre las variables; por lo tanto, a mayor dependencia a los videojuegos, mayor agresividad en los adolescentes. Esto se debe a los altos niveles de violencia en los videojuegos más populares, los cuales afectan el control de los impulsos, especialmente en varones, quienes presentan mayores niveles de dependencia a videojuegos en comparación con las mujeres.

“…Avatars provide users with options for identity expression, such as the ability to walk, run, fly, and even teleport [ 75 ]. Several studies in the field of player experience have demonstrated a positive correlation between AU and PE [ 76 , 77 , 78 ]. This relationship has also been verified in non-pure entertainment environments; for instance, in e-learning, AU has been linked to enjoyment of the experience [ 79 ] and perceived enjoyment of human computation games [ 80 ].…”

The purpose of this study is to investigate and validate the influencing factors of audiences’ attitudes toward virtual concerts. In order to address this issue, the current study proposes a conceptual model integrating player experience factors (autonomy, relatedness, and engagement) and the technology acceptance model (perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and perceived enjoyment). An online questionnaire on virtual concert experiences was conducted among Chinese audiences who had attended virtual concerts previously. Structural equation modeling was then used to establish the relationships between variables. The results suggested that autonomy, relatedness, and engagement positively impacted perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and perceived enjoyment. Furthermore, the perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and perceived enjoyment were significant predictors of audiences’ attitudes. The findings of this study could provide a reference for relevant virtual entertainment providers and could also serve as a point of development and exploration for the technology acceptance model and player experience in the field of virtual concerts.

“…It is when tensions are high, that gamers tend to be more aggressive with their words. As an example, "men seem to play games more in general and exhibit problematic gaming behavior more frequently, whereas women play games for social reasons more often" (Kneer et al, 2022). Women can also show these signs of aggression as well and cause harassment to the community that surrounds them but it is the language and saying that men use that make it different from other forms.…”

The misrepresentation of females in video games has created a harmful environment due to the hypersexual nature and stereotypes. This study is a data collection based on the harmful behaviors and patterns of both developers and members of the gaming community. The gaming community carries behaviors that can be deemed harmful and are close to office harassment towards women who are more hostile while playing video games and engaging with women outside of it. Harmful community behaviors also affect women in the gaming communities especially when most female main characters are seen with unrealistic body proportions which creates body image issues (in women) and leads to higher rates of depression. These behaviors contrast with the effect the gaming community has on each other and with the developers.Developers have created a data set pattern that monitors the community and the choices fans will make within video games so that said games would sell more. The data set monitors data sets for appealing characters, game functions, as well as fan service. These findings as a whole suggest that both the developers and the community itself need to change the way that they are treating women within the gaming community. The over-sexualization and stereotypes that are made of women in video games are desensitizing younger generations to this behavior, letting those new into the gaming community think that this problem is okay.
