Effect of Gaming on Moral Development

What is Moral Reasoning? From the time we are born till the time of our death, we undergo a lot of changes which leads to both growth and development. One such development is to differentiate between what is right and what is wrong. This change leads to moral development in a person which is very important.
Example- Initially, the right and wrongs in life circle around reward and punishment. But later on in life with societal factors coming into the display, one develops a deeper understanding.

An experiment was devised to measure the moral understanding of both adolescent men and women. Results were as surprising as it may seem. The result showed that the moral progression of adolescent men was much more than women. Usually, women are seen to have higher-end towards moral reasoning but this time it was otherwise.

They were worried as violent video games might influence their children’s moral development. Another report that was published displayed that the university going students were not affected by the violence showcased in such games. However, younger adolescents with moral reasoning under development must be protected and kept away from these games.

However, one thing remains certain is that one should engage in all sorts of genres of video games but one should not overdo it which might impact our mental health.
