Another cool #NeuroPreprint (broadly speaking: it’s on #Navigation performance), from #SpiersLab (@hugospiers):
Video gaming, but not reliance on GPS, is associated with spatial navigation performance
I am intrigued by the difference in sample numbers: “n = 822, 280 men, 542 women”? Is that a typo?
And also this:

“There was a significant association between weekly hours of video gaming and navigation performance which was not moderated by gender. After accounting for video game experience, gender was no longer significantly associated with navigation performance.”
Is gender a factor or not? 🤔
