Video games: Study suggests playing video games does not affect children's cognitive skills

Study suggests playing video games causes no harm to children's cognitive skills

According to a study playing video games does not affect children's cognitive skills. Know more about it.&nbsp;

Parents often believe playing video games make children dull and affect their intelligence. However, according to a study published in the Journal of Media Psychology, &nbsp;playing video games does not affect children's cognitive skills.
Children who participated in the research played video games for 2.5 hours and some played for 4.5 hours daily. For research, the performance of the cognitive ability test of children playing video games was checked and it was revealed that the time of playing video games and the type of video games had no direct effect on cognitive performance.
Besides this, the study also revealed that the games children play to increase healthy cognitive skills do not help much in increasing their skills.

The family of actor Bruce Willis took to social media to announce that the actor has decided to retire from acting since he has been diagnosed with aphasia. 

Editorji Exclusive: Bruce Willis diagnosed with Aphasia; Here’s what this disorder means 

Recently, Hollywood actor Bruce Willis who is known for his work in &lsquo;Die Hard&rsquo;, took the decision to retire from acting after being diagnosed with aphasia. Read on to know everything about this language disorder.&nbsp;
What is aphasia?&nbsp;
Speech and language are the means by which humans communicate with one another. Loss of this ability is called aphasia.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Speech and language require to have many components: the ability to understand the spoken or written word; the ability to formulate an appropriate response; and to be able to respond in the form of speech or writing.&nbsp;
For this to happen, in a correct and smooth way, there are important centres in the brain, located on the left side in most people, but maybe on the right side in left-handed people. If there is any damage to these centres, aphasia may occur.&nbsp;
Aphasia can be of different types:&nbsp;
The affected person may not be able to understand what is being said. the person may understand what is said, but may not know how to respond. He /she may know how to respond, but what is said is different from what he wanted to say. He/she may not be able to say anything at all despite wanting to do so, which may be very frustrating for the person. What causes aphasia?&nbsp;&nbsp;
Any damage to the area of the brain involved in speech and language can cause aphasia e.g., stroke or head injury or infections when it occurs suddenly.&nbsp;&nbsp;
It can also occur in tumours or be a part of a generalized disease process when it occurs gradually and progresses slowly.&nbsp;
Treatment&nbsp;
There is no specific treatment for aphasia. Aphasia therapy can be very helpful, where the patient is taught to use other means of communication by using gestures or pictures. In traumatic events and stroke, some recovery may occur with time.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;
