Video games are not the mind-melting devil creations that your parents made them out to be.
電子遊戲其實不是你怙恃口中有害心智的恶魔。
Not only can gaming be a whole lot of fun, but recent research has revealed there's also a range of scientific benefits to playing videogames.
打遊戲不但能带来兴趣，近来的钻研還顯示電子遊戲有一系列好处。
Here are six of the best benefits:
這里罗列出玩遊戲的六大好处：
1. 3D video games could increase memory capacity
1. 3D電子遊戲可晋升影象容量
In a 2015 study in The Journal of Neuroscience, researchers from the University of California, Irvine recruited 69 participants, and asked a third to play Super Mario 3D World for two weeks, a third to play Angry Birds, and the rest to play nothing.
《神經科學》杂志2015年登载過一項钻研，加州大學欧文分校的钻研职員招募了69名自愿者，请求此中三分之一的人用两周時候玩“超等马里奥3D世界”、三分之一玩“愤慨的小鸟”、剩下三分之一甚麼也不玩。
The people who played Mario ended up doing better on follow-up memory tasks, while the others showed no improvement pre- and post-gaming.
成果發明，第一组自愿者在後续的影象使命中表示更佳，而其他两组在遊戲先後的表示其實不存在顯著差别。
"Video gamers who specifically favour complex 3D video games performed better," the researchers concluded.
钻研职員总结道：“出格喜好繁杂3D遊戲的玩家表示得更好。”
2. Gaming could be good for pain relief
2. 遊戲有助于减缓痛苦悲伤
This one is the best excuse for playing video games on your next sick day – a 2012 literature review published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine found that in the 38 studies examined, video games improved the health outcomes of 195 patients on every front, including psychological and physical therapy.
下次生病想打遊戲的時辰便可以用這個来由——2012年，《美國预防醫學》杂志的一篇文献综述写道，從38項钻研中可以看出，電子遊戲從方方面面晋升了195名患者的身心康健水平。
Plus, in 2010, scientists presented research at the American Pain Society's conference, which found evidence that playing video games, especially virtual reality games, are effective at reducing anxiety or pain caused by chronic illness or medical procedures.
别的，2010年，科學家在美國痛苦悲伤协會集會上先容一項钻研，该钻研發明玩電子遊戲(特别是虚拟實際遊戲)可以或许有用地减缓由慢性疾病或醫療進程引發的發急或痛苦悲伤。
"The focus is drawn to the game not the pain or the medical procedure, while the virtual reality experience engages visual and other senses," said Jeffrey Gold from the University of Southern California.
南加州大學的Jeffrey Gold暗示，虚拟實際遊戲调動视觉和其他感官，将注重力吸引到遊戲上，如许人们就不會被痛苦悲伤或醫療步伐所吸引。
3. There's evidence games help dyslexic kids improve their reading
3. 遊戲可以或许帮忙失读症兒童晋升浏览能力
Video games can help kids, too!
電子遊戲也對兒童有利！
A 2013 study published in Cell investigated the effect that playing actio三芝通馬桶,n games, like 'Rayman Raving Rabbids', could help dyslexic children aged 7 to 13 year read faster, with no loss in accuracy.
《细胞》杂志2013年登载的一項钻研表白，動作类遊戲（好比雷曼猖獗兔子）可以或许帮忙7-13岁的失读症兒童在不低落切确度的条件下晋升浏览速率。
The results were equal or better to traditional reading treatments, which can be more time consuming and not as fun.
遊戲療法的成效同等于或優于傳統浏览醫治，但後者更耗時、且不那末有趣。
The researchers think that the fast pace in these games helped the kids increase their attention spans, although this hypothesis is yet to be tested.
钻研职員認為，這種遊戲的快节拍可以或许晋升兒童连结注重力的時候，但此假说還没有获得证明。
4. Tetris could help limit trauma
4. 俄罗斯方块有助按捺創伤
Trusty old Tetris might be good for more than just time wasting if this new study is anything to go by.
若是這項钻研能有希望，那末古老的俄罗斯方块遊戲就不但仅是用来损耗時候的了。
Last year, 37 patients that arrived at a hospital emergency department in Oxford, UK, to be treated for a traffic accident were randomly selected to play 20 minutes of Tetris. Another 34 patients didn't get given the game, but were asked to log their regular activity instead – including things such as texting, crosswords, and reading.
客岁，英國牛津一場交通变乱中，有37位接管急診醫治的患者被随機選中玩20分钟俄罗斯方块，此外34位患者则被请求举行其它通例勾當，如發短信、填灯谜、浏览等。
The Tetris players had significantly less flashbacks to the traumatic traffic event than those that didn't – about 62 percent less on average.
成果發明，俄罗斯方块玩家更少回想起另人烦懑的交通变乱，且效應十分顯著——均匀削减62%。
The resea新店汽車借款,rch, published last month in Molecular Psychiatry, concludes that the "brief, science-driven intervention offers a low-intensity means that could substantially improve the mental health of those who have experienced psychological trauma."
上個月，這項钻研颁發于《份子精力病學》：“這是一種简略科學的低强度干涉干與方法，却可以或许大幅晋升蒙受生理創伤者的生理康健。”
5. Some research shows that video games might actually make you smarter
5. 電子遊戲或能使你更聪慧
A study published in PLoS ONE in 2013 goes as far as saying that your cognition might be enhanced when you start up your Xbox or PlayStation.
2013年，一項颁發在《大眾科學藏书楼》的钻研表白，電子遊戲也许可以或许加强認知功效。
The researchers took five groups of non-gamers, and made them play a phone game for one hour a day over four weeks.
钻研职員探讨了五组非遊戲玩家，讓他们在附近時候里天天玩一小時手機遊戲。
They found that all video games, both action and non-action games, improved cognitive男士抗衰老面霜, function in the participants – measured by tests such as short term memory tasks.
成果發明，所有電子遊戲(包含動作类與非動作类)都可以或许晋升介入者的認知功效，短時間影象程度等测试都证明了這一點。
6. Gaming is linked to an increase in brain matter
6. 玩遊戲可增长大脑物資
A 2014 study published in Molecular Psychiatry by researchers from the Max Planck Institute in Germany from the found that playing Super Mario 場中投注賽事表，64 caused an increase in the size of brain regions.
《份子精力病學》治療雞眼,2014年颁發過德國马克斯普朗克钻研所的一項钻研，他们發明玩“超等马里奥64”可以扩展脑區。
Specifically the bits of the brain responsible for spatial orientation, memory formation, strategic planning, and fine motor skills.
特别是賣力空間定位、影象構成、计谋制訂和小肌肉活動技術的區域。
When the researchers looked at 24 participants who had played the game for 30 minutes a day for two months under an MRI machine they found that they had increased grey matter in the right hippocampus, right prefrontal cortex, and the cerebellum, compared to a control group that hadn't played any game.
在两個月時候內，24名介入者天天在核磁共振呆板的监测下玩30分钟遊戲。成果發明，相较于节制组，遊戲玩家的右邊海马體、右邊前额皮質和小脑的灰質均有所增长。
"This proves that specific brain regions can be trained by means of video games", said one of the researchers, Simone Küh, at the time.
“這阐明電子遊戲可以或许练習特定大脑區域。”一名钻研員Simone Küh说道。
So there you go – scientists have totally just backed your decision to play video games all weekend.
以是，科學家们给你全部周末打遊戲的决议供给了强有力的支撑。 |
