How do video games affect self-esteem?


Excessive video gaming is found to be associated with positive emotions and social relationships while playing. However, problematic and excessive video gaming is also associated with maladaptive coping strategies, negative emotions and attitudes, low self-esteem, loneliness, and poor academic performance.

Why do video games cause low self-esteem?

Gamers often share with others in online games and are judged based on their personality. This can be positive and can even lead to deep and lasting friendships. But in the real world, people can criticize them for their appearance, how much money they have, and more.



How do video games affect anxiety?

While there has been no scientific evidence showing video games cause anxiety directly, the two are most certainly correlated. This means video games might not cause anxiety directly. However, many people turn to video games as a refuge from their stress and anxiety, which may worsen their anxiety.




How many hours of gaming is considered an addiction?

For video game play to be classified as addictive, one must engage in them for at least 15 to 20 hours each week or more. This amounts to an average of three hours each day. This sort of play can cause lasting damage to the health and well-being of people, including their relationships and productivity.
