P01. Video Gaming and Health: An Opportunity for Health Screening and Promotion

Overview

An anonymous Qualtrics survey was distributed via email and Reddit posts to gather information on the self-reported physical, mental, and social health symptomology associated with weekly video game habits. Over 25% of respondents who reported physical symptoms also reported mental health symptoms and nearly 31% reported experiencing harassment while playing. We will explore these concerns and ways to discuss healthier gaming habits with college/university students, including possible screening practices.
