ESA counters, labels report “dubious”.
A forthcoming study which claims to establish a link between gaming and metal health problems in children has been junked by the Entertainment Software Association (ESA) as “questionable” and “dubious”.
Although the exact contents of the report, authored by Iowa State University researcher Douglas Gentile, have yet to be made public, it’s angered the ESA enough to coax a statement from senior VP Richard Taylor.
“We commend credible, independent, and verifiable research about computer and video games. However, this research is just more of the same questionable findings by the same author in his campaign against video games.”
