Violence | Perception | Video Games

New Directions in Game Research

230 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This volume compiles papers from the Young Academics Workshop at the Clash of Realities conferences of 2017 and 2018. The 2017 workshop – Perceiving Video Games – explored the video game medium by focusing on perception and meaning-making processes. The 2018 workshop – Reframing the Violence and Video Games Debate – transcended misleading claims that link video games and violent behavior by offering a range of fresh topical perspectives. From BA students to postdoctoral researchers, the young academics of this anthology stem from a spectrum of backgrounds, including game studies, game design, and phenomenology. This volume also features an entry by renowned psychologist Christopher J. Ferguson.
