Join us this week on The Gaming Persona podcast as we dive deep into a new research study on solo gaming and the various psychological effects of game playing. We are joined by doc student from Mount Mary University, Tyler Secor, to review the most important gaming experiences in his journey to starting as a counselor educator and games researcher. This chat also carries a significant connection for Dr. Gameology which is discussed during the episode. Discover how being a game player influences general wellbeing, self-efficacy, problem-solving abilities, social connections, and more. Get an exclusive look at the methods used to determine trends in gaming behavior across all ages - from teens to adults of all types - as well as insight from expert researchers in the field. Learn how you can participate in the study and make your voice heard. For information on participating in the study during the Spring of 2023, make sure to contact the primary researcher on Twitter or other social apps here.
