Chronic video game play is linked with hyperconnectivity between several pairs of brain networks.
Some of the changes are expected to help game players respond to new information.
It usually involves gamers who give up eating and sleeping for keep playing.
The changes could essentially help someone to think more efficiently.
Hyperconnectivity was found in areas of the brain involved in hearing, vision and movement, the researchers say.
The changes could essentially help someone to think more efficiently, Anderson says.
Having these networks be too connected may increase distractibility, says Anderson.
Most of the differences we see could be considered beneficial, says Anderson.
However the good changes could be inseparable from problems that come with them.
The team analyzed activity in 25 pairs of brain regions, 300 combinations in all.
