Have you ever kept hearing a game sound, visualising its interface, or thinking in “game logic” after you’ve stopped playing? This intriguing overlap between gaming and reality is part of an exciting area of research known as Game Transfer Phenomena (GTP). In the recent publication, “Game Transfer Phenomena as a […]
When players immerse themselves in a video game, their attention, emotions, and sensory systems synchronize with the digital world. But what happens when that experience doesn’t stay contained within the screen? A new article published in the Annual Review of CyberTherapy and Telemedicine (2024) by Angelica ORTIZ DE GORTARI, Andrzej […]
My colleagues Huu Kim Le, Annabel Callan, Daragh Poynton, Daniela Vecchio and Wai Chen at Fiona Stanley Hospital, Australia, and I recently published a case report on GTP: “Game Transfer Phenomena in a Clinical Case with Psychosis and Gaming Disorder” in the Psychiatry International journal. Our case report describes a […]
Hemos publicado mi colega Andrzej Cudo y yo nuestro estudio titulado “Adaptación de la escala del Game Transfer Phenomena en español: cambios sensoperceptivos, pensamientos intrusivos y comportamientos involuntarios en video jugadores mexicanos” (n=607) en la Revista Internacional de Investigación en Adicciones (RIIAD), editada por los Centros de Integración Juvenil A.C […]
Our new study, “Adaptation of the Game Transfer Phenomena Scale into Spanish: Sensory-Perceptual Changes, Intrusive Thoughts, and Involuntary Behaviors in Mexican Video Game Players”, with a validation of the Game Transfer Phenomena scale with 20 items in a population of Mexican video game players has been published in Revista Internacional […]
My colleague Dr Maria Panagiotidi and I have just published a new study on Game Transfer Phenomena in the journal Computers in Human Behavior, “The interplay between executive function deficits, psychopathological traits, and dysfunctional gaming habits in the context of Game Transfer Phenomena”. Many manifestations of GTP seem to reflect […]
Jayne Gackenbach and I have published a new study on Game Transfer Phenomena looking into dispositional and media use factors. The publication is part of the collection Digital Games and Mental Health in Frontiers in Psychology. This study can be viewed as an early step in differentiating GTP from problematic […]
Dr Emma Palmer-Cooper at the University of Southampton and Dr Angelica B. Ortiz de Gortari at the University of Bergen are collaborating to examine the relationship between sensory experiences and the exposure to passive media (watching videos of ASMR (Autonomous sensory meridian response) and interactive media (playing video games and […]
What is this study about? The purpose of this study is to understand how video games can help us to cope with the pandemic challenges. The study is part of a series of studies to understand people’s responses to the exposure to digital media to inform and demystify spontaneous sensory […]
Contribute to the science of video games. Participate in our studies. The aim of these studies is to understand people’s responses to the exposure to digital media to inform and demystify spontaneous sensory perceptions, cognition and behaviours experienced after playing video games, so-called Game Transfer Phenomena (GTP). The coronavirus outbreak […]
