Topic: Video GamesResearch Question : Can video games be beneficial to a child's cognitive, social and emotional development?

My aim is to explore if video games teach children some new skills, improve their abilities or help in their future effectivity in real life. We are trying to find out about the variety of cognitive, emotional and social benefits to gaming amongst children - in the development of their every day attention, speed, accuracy and multi-tasking. There is evidence that children who spend free time playing video games score higher on various tests of creativity, they stay in better mood and eliminate possible behavior problems as help delay later age-related dementia.
