“…Los videojuegos son una opción lúdica ampliamente extendida en la cohorte adolescente (Gómez-Gonzalvo et al, 2020) y pueden ser un elemento tanto positivo como negativo (Hodge et al, 2019). El uso de videojuegos se ha relacionado positivamente con la autoestima (Ledo et al, 2015;Tamplin-Wilson et Los hallazgos muestran una preferencia mayoritaria por parte del género masculino sobre el femenino en la dedicación de su tiempo de ocio a los videojuegos. Un mayor porcentaje de chicos informa llevar jugando a videojuegos entre cuatro y más de nueve años, mientras que la mayoría de las chicas indica llevar entre cero y tres años jugando.…”

El objetivo de este estudio fue conocer la dedicación que se hace a los videojuegos durante la adolescencia y analizar si el género o la edad influyen en su uso. El abordaje fue cuantitativo, con un diseño no experimental transversal descriptivo y multifactorial. Se utilizó un cuestionario ad hoc en una muestra de 708 adolescentes gallegos (51,3% mujeres, 48,7% hombres; M = 13,92; DT = 1,71). Los resultados muestran diferencias significativas entre el género y la edad con el uso de los videojuegos. Los chicos presentan mayores valores en el tiempo de ocio dedicado a videojuegos, años jugando, horas dedicadas durante la semana y en fin de semana, y tipo o título de juego preferido, mientras que las chicas alcanzan mejores valores en la elección de la plataforma de juego. Asimismo, a mayor edad en el periodo adolescente menos tiempo de ocio dedican a los videojuegos y menos horas dedican a jugar durante la semana y en fin de semana. En conclusión, se considera que los videojuegos serán parte de la vida en el futuro, por lo que se deben seguir realizando estudios sistemáticos sobre diferentes variables personales y sociales para sacarle el máximo potencial a estas nuevas herramientas del mundo virtual.

“…This is most evident in MMORPGs where players interact with each other to achieve their game goals (Ryan et al, 2006). Other recent research (Rogers, 2017; Tamplin‐Wilson et al, 2019) corroborates that optimal game experience is derived from satisfying these basic psychological needs. Indeed, Rogers (2017) claims that games with flexible rules lead to feelings of competence, whereas games with social elements lead to feelings of relatedness.…”

“…Indeed, Rogers (2017) claims that games with flexible rules lead to feelings of competence, whereas games with social elements lead to feelings of relatedness. In a similar vein, Tamplin-Wilson et al (2019) suggest that playing games are an effective way to recover from ostracism, while Castillo (2019) posits that playing MMORPGs leads to feelings of social support and tolerance.…”

The consumption of virtual items and other forms of in‐game content is rapidly increasing in the Massively Multiple Player Online Role‐Playing Games market. While psychological need satisfaction obtained through purchasing virtual items to achieve hedonic game experience remains at the center of the debate, most of these studies neglect the eudaimonic game experience and do not differentiate between the psychological experiences from functional items and nonfunctional items. Our research employs the eudaimonic game experience perspective to explore the psychological need satisfaction individuals achieve through purchasing functional and nonfunctional items. From interviews with 25 players, a novel finding is that, while competence, autonomy, relatedness, and purpose in life contribute to one's eudaimonic game experience, each psychological need has its own unique dimensions for different virtual product types. Competence and purpose in life are needs driven by two factors: inner‐directed consumption intention, emphasizing aspiration for authenticity and personal growth; and other‐directed consumption intention, focusing on motivations that elicit, for example, positive responses from others and receiving social awards. Such results are only apparent for functional items but not for nonfunctional items. In contrast, autonomy and relatedness are needs explained by one's inner‐directed consumption intention, across both product types.

“…They found beneficial effects not only for need satisfaction but also for mood. Other research indicates that playing video games following ostracism assists in the recovery of need satisfaction and affect (Tamplin-Wilson et al, 2019). As researchers found no difference in recovery due to the type of game (prosocial, self-esteem enhancing, or control), distraction is a likely mechanism.…”

“…Other interventions that found improvement in both needsatisfaction and affect, such as prayer, self-affirmation, and video games (Hales, Kassner, et al, 2016;Tamplin-Wilson et al, 2019), could also be considered attentional deployment strategies (Gross, 2015), in that they redirect the attention away from the negative affect elicited by ostracism. Conversely, sending or simply writing confrontational messages involves further attention to the negative situation, which may prolong the experience of negative emotions (also see Bushman, 2002).…”

Ostracism-being ignored and excluded by others-has detrimental effects on targets. Confrontation allows targets to express displeasure with mistreatment. Three studies examined confrontation in response to ostracism. In Study 1, participants completed an ostracism manipulation, Cyberball, and were given the opportunity to message their ostracizers. Message coding indicated that one-third of targets wrote messages expressing unhappiness with how they were treated, significantly more than included participants. In Studies 2 and 3, participants completed Cyberball before random assignment to a distraction, writing, or confrontation task. Analysis of need-recovery indicated that the distraction consistently improved need-satisfaction and affective recovery between the immediate and delayed measurements. Results provided mixed support regarding the effectiveness of confrontation in coping with ostracism; however, no significant changes in need satisfaction were seen for those in the writing condition. In sum, distraction is a response to ostracism that may improve the recovery of depleted need-satisfaction following ostracism better than confrontation.
