From: “TV and video games increase teen depression risk: study“
Spending more hours watching television or playing video games as a teenager may lead to depression in young adults . . .
participants had significantly greater odds of developing depression by follow-up for each hour of daily television viewed . . .
those reporting higher total media exposure had significantly greater odds of developing depression for each additional hour of daily use . . .
Young women were found to be less likely to develop symptoms of depression than young men when exposed to the same amount of electronic media.
That makes complete sense, sitting around not doing anything, not using your imagination or creating can definitly bring a human down.
Einstein once said that when he discovered the theory of relativity, it was his imagination more then his knowledge of science that helped him do it.
