Expertos de los Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC por su sigla en inglés) observaron la conducta de 552 adultos de entre 19 y 90 años de la zona de Seattle-Tacoma, en Estados Unidos. De esos participantes, 249, o casi el 45 por ciento, eran aficionados a los videojuegos. Los hombres representaban al 56 por ciento de esos jugadores.
El equipo halló que los hombres amantes de los videojuegos pesaban más y empleaban Internet más que otras personas de su mismo sexo. Por otro lado, las mujeres jugadoras mostraron mayores niveles de depresión y una salud no tan buena, en comparación con aquellas sin afición por los juegos de video.
El investigador James Weaver y sus colegas sugirieron que los adultos amantes de estos juegos son menos sociables, extrovertidos y enérgicos que los no jugadores.
Estos resultados fueron consistentes con los de estudios previos sobre adolescentes a los que les gustaban mucho los videojuegos: esta actividad está ligada al sedentarismo, los problemas de peso y de salud mental.
Asimismo, los adultos jugadores de ambos sexos suelen hacer más uso de Internet para relacionarse con otras personas, lo que respalda la sugerencia de estudios anteriores sobre el "sacrificio de las actividades sociales de la vida real para jugar videojuegos" que implica esta práctica en los adultos. Los expertos hallaron también que los adultos que juegan videojuegos suelen tener un mayor peso corporal y cantidad de días de "mala salud mental", comparado con sus pares sin esa afición.
