Resumen
El exceso de videojuegos en los niños está relacionado con una menor motivación académica. Este estudio no encontró tal vínculo en las niñas, lo que sugiere que los hábitos de juego pueden afectar el éxito académico de los niños durante la infancia.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Psicología del desarrollo
- Psicología educativa
- Psicología de los medios
Sus antecedentes:
- Los videojuegos infantiles pueden afectar negativamente la motivación académica.
- Por el contrario, la baja motivación académica podría impulsar un mayor compromiso con los videojuegos.
- Este estudio investigó la compleja relación entre el juego y la motivación académica en la infancia media.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Examinar las asociaciones bidireccionales entre el juego infantil y la motivación académica.
- Para determinar si el juego influye en la motivación académica o viceversa.
- Para explorar estas relaciones a través de diferentes etapas de desarrollo en la infancia media.
Principales métodos:
- Análisis de datos de 1.631 niños en el Estudio Longitudinal de Desarrollo Infantil de Quebec.
- Medidas repetidas del tiempo de juego reportado por los padres y la motivación académica reportada por los niños (edad 7, 8, 10).
- Utilizó un modelo de panel de retraso cruzado de intersección aleatoria para evaluar asociaciones bidireccionales dentro de la persona.
Principales resultados:
- Se encontró una asociación unidireccional: el aumento del juego en los niños a los 7 años predijo una menor motivación académica a los 8 años.
- El juego a los 8 años también predijo una menor motivación académica a los 10 años para los niños.
- No se observaron asociaciones significativas entre el juego y la motivación académica en las niñas.
Conclusiones:
- El aumento del tiempo de videojuegos en los niños en edad escolar se asocia con una menor motivación académica.
- Esta asociación es particularmente relevante durante un período crítico para el desarrollo de habilidades académicas.
- Promover hábitos de juego saludables podría ser beneficioso para la motivación académica y el éxito de los niños.

This period is marked by an increased ability to adapt to others' perspectives and a more nuanced understanding of others' mental states, a skill that is foundational for social problem-solving and conflict avoidance. The development of cognitive empathy relies heavily on the theory of mind — the...

Social-emotional experiences and cultural influences play significant roles in shaping gender development. During middle childhood, from ages 6 to 11, peer groups become dominant in reinforcing gender norms. Children in this age group often align with same-gender peer groups, which actively encourage behaviors that conform to traditional gender roles. For instance, boys may be discouraged from engaging in activities perceived as feminine, reinforcing culturally dictated norms about masculinity...

A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development. However, as you may have experienced as a child, not all play behavior has positive outcomes. Some children are aggressive and want to play roughly. Other children are selfish and do not want to share toys. One form of negative social interactions among children that has become a national concern is...

Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...
