A recent study has found that playing video games before bed has little effect on the ability of adolescent’s boys to doze off.
Teens who played a violent video game took only marginally longer to fall asleep as compared to teens who watched a relaxing nature documentary on television.
Lead author of the study, Research supervisor, Michael Gradisar, senior lecturer in clinical child psychology at Flinders University in Adelaide, Australia, said, "Initially we were surprised that playing the violent video game did not lead to a much longer time taken to fall asleep."
