We Need Gamers For Research At UCT!!

[UCT]

If you take the fittest pro gamers and whichever non-gamers: gaming == fitness.

If the volunteers are taken randomly, the outcome will probably be that gamers will be more unfit but smarter.
Reason is the relationship between cognition and physical activity.
So it's a result of IQ, not a reason for it.

I'm actually quite interested to see what the mental performance results will be. We expect gamers to have better mental performance but those that sleep poorly should have worse mental performance than the non-gamers. Based on this we would like to theorize that yes, gaming does improve mental function BUT if you aren't sleeping properly then this association would be diminished.
