PLOS ONE, Aug 2023 This current study is a meta-analysis conducted on 63 studies on video-game based cognitive interventions (118 investigations, N = 2,079), which demonstrated a moderate and significant training effect on overall gains in cognition, g = 0.25, p < .001. Significant evidence of transfer was found to overall cognition, as well as to attention/perception and higher-order cognition constructs.
Potential participants were contacted through flyers posted in campus buildings and local businesses, study notices published in local newspapers, and through advertisements posted to online bulletin boards. People responding to these flyers and advertisements completed a survey of their video game habits. We included only those individuals who reported playing videogames 0 hours/week for past two years. Forty older adults from the Urbana-Champaign community participated in the study.
