But girls get into more fights, says research.
Male teens who play videogames are less likely to smoke or take up drugs, and do better at school than their non-gaming classmates, according to new research.
However, the same can not be said of girl gamers apparently they’re more likely to get into fights or bring a weapon to school.
The research, carried out by the American Academy of Pediatrics and reported by Games Radar, surveyed 4,000 Connecticut high school students.
