Using a survey approach, the study<(what study?) examined youths' exposure to violent contents in video games as well as parental involvement in their game play. Outcomes included antisocial attitudes, bullying behaviors and involvement in civic activities, such as volunteering in their communities. The study also assessed children's motives for playing video games, surprisingly, one of very few studies to do so. <(질문에 대한 답이 보이지 않습니다) Contrary to the fears of many, results indicated that violent game use was not associated with antisocial attitudes or bullying behavior. Violent video game use was actually associated with increased civic behaviors, albeit the relationship was very small and correlational in nature. Taken together, these results suggest that violent video game use is not associated with problem behaviors in youth related to aggression or prosocial/civic behaviors. (Need better transition) Parental involvement was not associated with reduced violent video game exposure. This may be because parents become comfortable with the content of games once they themselves play them. <(elaborate) Regarding motivations for violent game play, it was not surprising to find that boys played more violent games than girls. However, among youth who played video games, interest in games as a fun activity but also as a release from stress were predictors of violent game use. These results are consistent with evidence from other studies indicating that youth often turn to action oriented games to reduce stress and improve mood. All told, results from this study suggest that violent video games are not the object for concern that they were once perceived as being. As with other forms of art, ranging from rock music to comic books, perceptions of harm caused by video games to society may increasingly be a thing of the past.
