Exploring the relationship between video game expertise and fluid intelligence

Two studies that examine the potential link between intelligence and performance in one of the most popular video games genres in the world (Multiplayer Online Battle Arenas: MOBAs) show that performance in the popular MOBA League of Legends correlates with fluid intelligence as measured under controlled laboratory conditions.

The Measurement of Intelligence in the XXI Century using Video Games

The pros and cons of video games as tools for measuring cognitive abilities with commercial video games are discussed, underscoring that psychologists must develop their own intelligence video games and delineate their key features for the measurement devices of next generation.

This research suggests that action video game play is associated with superior perceptual and cognitive abilities, and presents evidence in favor of cross-sectional differences between action gamers and non-gamers on measures of vision and attention.

An investigation of the validity of the virtual spatial navigation assessment

The validity of the virtual spatial navigation assessment as a measure of environmental spatial ability is supported and recommendations are made for how the VSNA can be used to help guide individuals toward STEM career paths and identify weaknesses that might be addressed with large scale spatial navigation training.

Action video game modifies visual selective attention

It is shown that action-video-game playing is capable of altering a range of visual skills, and non-players trained on an action video game show marked improvement from their pre-training abilities.

Action video game play facilitates the development of better perceptual templates

The PTM approach is used to elucidate the mechanism that underlies the wide range of improvements noted after action video game play and establishes for the first time to the authors' knowledge the development of enhanced perceptual templates following action game play.
