Hi,

I'm currently in the process of writing a bachelor's thesis on "The effect of violence in the media on human psyché" with focus on videogames.

I'd be gerateful for some relevant sourced info about this.

As things stand, I'm basically ready to conclude that videogames and other media do indeed cause real-life violence to some unspecified extent.

Thanks in advance.


In October 1958, Physicist William Higinbotham created what is thought to be the first video game. There was lots of violence in the world before that time period.
