Violent Video Games

According to AHRQ (2008) care coordination is an associated concept that represents the transition among two particular care settings. It encompasses the collaboration of providers and health plan administrators through a variation of care settings to ensure optimal patient care (p. 6). Therefore, respectable care outcomes are in need of admirable coordinated communication among providers. The lack in connectivity between providers in the health care system has risen to the national consciousness. According to Wolfe (2001), the Institute of Medicine (IOM) report emphasizes that health care quality suffers because of the lack in effective treatments and insufficient health care delivery systems that fail to exploit these treatments. Disjointed

According to Vanderbilt edu, “students who had played a violent virtual reality game had a higher heart rate, reported more dizziness and nausea, and exhibited more aggressive thoughts in a post-test than those who had played a nonviolent game.” Also, Another negative aspect of video games is that many kids spend more time playing video games than being outside. According to Vanderbilt edu, "Another negative aspect of video games is the fact that kids are spending too much time playing the games rather than physically playing outside. From the quote above, it is evident that kids involved with video games are spending 13 and 14 hours a week playing them rather than just an hour here and there. By spending so much time on their game console or on the computer, children are missing out on their social life." Video games can also have negative

In 2008 an eight year-old intentionally, living in slaughter louisiana,shot his grandmother in the head right after playing grand theft auto IV. In America the rate of mass shootings and obesity each year. Video Games also teach antisocial behavior. Video games are responsible for increase of violence in schools, desensitizing American youth, and prompting unhealthy behaviors.

It is agreeable that there are some correlation between teenagers playing video games and how it affects the youth mentally. Heavy consumption of violence video games does indeed stimulate a change reaction in the brain waves, but there is no hard evidence stating that those changes causes teenagers to act aggressively and violently. On the contrary, it is a popular beliefs that violence video games does indeed causes teenagers to displayed unpleasant behaviors and actions because that is what they learned and observed from the games. Therefore, parents should limit and regulate the amount of time their teenagers are playing violence video games so that they can protect their children from negative behaviors.

It seems like everything coming out about video games is bad. A student tried to kill his fellow classmates, and he was an avid Call of Duty player. A study has been released that proves that playing video games will turn you into a criminal. The many benefits of games and gaming, such as their possible applications to education and their ability to tell more complex stories than other forms of media, are almost universally ignored. I know better, though. Between the lifetime I’ve spent playing and loving video games, and the articles I’ve found, I can tell you that video games do not cause violent behavior or thoughts.

It might be claimed by some scholars and game players that the statement about gaming is unhealthy and can lead to violence is unproven. “The author examines the lack of scientific validity of the studies that insist upon a correlation between violence and video games” (Radford, 2005, p.3). The scholar said that those conclusions about the connection between video games and violence that several researchers had found were just tentative. The studies of researchers were accused for being biased in seeking evidence of the video games’ negative side. However, this argument is no longer correct as one of the most reliable studies proved the strong relationship between enjoying violent video games and the increasing in desensitization, aggressive thoughts and behaviors among young people (Bickham, 2006). In this study of Dr. Craig A. Anderson of Iowa State University in Ames, he and his colleagues looked at whether children and teenagers with playing violent video game habits could engage in aggressive behaviors three to six month later. The result of the study is children and teenagers with the stronger intensity of playing violent games did become more aggressive than their peer with the less playing. To

Others may argue the fact that videogames don’t harm anyone outside the game. Considering the facts of murders and school shootings with the potential cause by video game playing, the stakes are high that video games are truly a danger to others. Just as in the article “High-Jinks: Shootout” this school is contributing to make this simulation as realistic as they can. The school has students contributing to fight to the death, by ‘killing’ other classmates for a earnings of money. Not only is this provoking students to act out, also a reward earned for such violence creates a harmful outcome in the students minds. Though this game only consist of fake weapons and or water guns, this game can also be very dangerous. The game takes place in the environment including others who don’t participate in the games. At one point a student gets to the point of chasing down a student to the airport, and as there overall motive to ‘kill’ the student there were after. These students are now using bath toys, later they can be overcome with the idea that violence is just a game, continuing in some kind of upgrade to a real weapon. Surely with this idea harm can come to others. Let alone the environment is too realistic. By being under that influence that the violence is game, this can be harmful to those teens. The issue is especially relevant today, because the games are more realistic and bloodier than ever, and because most american boys play them at some point. A psychologist at Brock University in Ontario found that longer periods of violent game playing among high school students predicted a slightly higher numbers of such incidents (schoolyard fights with peers) over time. This can show the impact that can be made on others in the same environment as the violent video game

Since video games have been introduced, video games have been accused of contributing too many atrocities, and acts of violence. News outlets paint video games as being a source of which some acts of violence happen. Yes, violent video games have become more popular, meanwhile becoming controversial, but still there exist no links between aggression and video games. The University of Bologna says that “owning videogames does not in fact seem to have negative effects on aggressive human behavior” (Koffler par.7). Meanwhile, news outlets keep on missing the point on how beneficial video games are. Video games do not contribute to violence, can be educational, and they can improve us in different ways.

After the elementary school shooting of Sandy Hook in 2012 this issue of violent video games became a hot issue calling for a connection of violence to video games. However, the final investigative report suggested that he was more a fan of nonviolent games (Ferguson, 2015). Video game violence is an issue that continues to be studied due to the inability to come to a general conclusion on whether or not the games provoke violence in connection to mass shootings. With shootings occurring and receiving mass coverage the media and public often seek a person/item to place the blame on. After the tragic events that left people dead or injured one of the topics that emerged was that of video games affects/effects on the person.

On July 22, 2016, an 18 year old male began to open fire on the Olympia Shopping Mall in Munich, Germany. After successfully killing ten and injuring 36 more, the gunner turned the firearm on himself and ended his own life. After a long investigation, it was reported that the shooter was a fan of First Person Shooter (FPS) video games. This newfound information sparked a new flame to the decade old argument of how video game violence leads to aggressive behavior and more real world violence in teens and young adults. While many news posts spread the word that videogame violence is negative, there have actually been an overwhelming amount of studies and debates that result in videogames with violence having mental and physical benefits to the player.

Controversy about video games continue to escalate between parents and gamers, regarding the psychological effect of simulated, realistic, and 3D violence on the minds of young children and growing teenagers. Yet, research shows that video games contribute very little to today’s everyday violence, despite complaints and concerns that games influence a child’s normal behavior. Technology is a way of life in today’s world, computers are used by toddlers, adolescents, and adults alike. No matter what career path a person chooses, the computer plays an essential role in the job. The more our technology progresses and as our industry grows stronger, computers and electronic entertainment will grow to be found everywhere around the world. This includes videogames.

Management has experienced remarkable shifts in the way that organizations conduct business particularly in the last century, due to the evolving workplace as well as tremendous changes in the roles of leaders in organizations. Early managers often relied on authoritative tactics to get the job done, which we have learned from history does not work very well for many modern organizations. In this paper, I will be analyzing the management approach my organization takes and whether this is the best approach to meet organizational goals and whether or not my organization may benefit from adopting a different approach or combining multiple approaches.

Excessive video game playing has been a problem with today’s youth they have had more influences over the youth than ever before. That brings to my attention a question, how do video games affect the youth of our society? Excessive video game playing, especially violent video games, can lead to youth violence, a decrease in academic success and many other negative things. I realize that some parents believe that they can be good for children, I agree but I also disagree in some cases. Some parents allow their children to play video games to keep a social life and to learn how to use strategies. This is true in some cases but not in all cases. For instance, other children that play video games alone and are in their rooms constantly can

“Life is a video game. No matter how good you get, you are always zapped in the end” (“Video Game Quotes” 1). Over time researchers, psychiatrists, and parents have often wondered how damaging violent video games can be to the youth in society. This is an important matter to people with children in their personal lives or work environment. These games have become a large risk factor for aggressive behavior in children. Researchers have been saying that video games do affect adults as well; however, they have even more effect on younger brains in early development. Video games have negative effects on childrens’ behavior. Some effects that video games have are reduced academic performance, aggression, obesity, and emotional disorder.

Many students athletes put blood, sweat, and tears in their work and in the game they love to play. College athletes have too much on the line at all time of their college careers. With all the pressure from exams and from the tough games, and trying to manage the balance of school and sports so one does not take over the other. That in itself is full time job without the pay. Student athletes have too much on the line when it comes to school exams, staying on top of their grades, getting their school work done on time, going to practice, and playing games late at night or early on the weekends and repeating that over and over again throughout the school year, it's more than a job it’s a hassle for the college athletes. Image trying to squeeze a part time job or full time job to get some money, it is impossible. Student athletes need compensation, rewards or benefits with being a full time student athlete and managing everything from school and sports at a high stake and doing it well.
