The brain controls how we see, hear, think, learn, and interact with the world. Importantly, the brain is not set in stone. It can be changed over time by the things we do. One of those things is playing video games! Playing video games can lead to a number of changes in the brain, some of which allow us to see, hear, think, and learn better. Crucially though, not all video games are equal. Just like eating different kinds of foods will affect the body in different ways, playing different types of video games will affect the brain in different ways. In this article, we will describe how scientists can measure changes in the brain and how playing video games can change the brain.
