Overall, more often than not the research is just straight up bad, whether or not it is peer reviewed (peer review is not the end all be all of validity). Additionally, there are often very strong counterpoints to these publications, including those from Dr. Christopher Ferguson who has published numerous papers on the positive effects of video games. |
Do you mind giving some examples? Not disagreeing but I would like to gather as much info as possible.
