The Association Between Internet Gaming Disorder and Impulsivity: A Systematic Review of Literature

Serife Inci Salvarli et al.

Summary: Research on Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) has grown significantly in the past decade. One of the risk factors for IGD is poor impulse control. This study conducted the first systematic review on the relationship between IGD and impulsivity, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. The review included 33 empirical studies, totaling 18,128 participants, and found a consistent positive association between impulsivity and IGD, despite methodological weaknesses. Possible explanations for this association suggest that altered neurobiological structures in individuals with impulsivity may contribute to the development of IGD.

Small Effects: The Indispensable Foundation for a Cumulative Psychological Science

Friedrich M. Goetz et al.

Summary: Research indicates that complex psychological phenomena are influenced by multiple causes, each having a small effect. However, the current publication culture values large effects while overlooking small yet real effects. These small effects can have significant consequences when considered at scale and over time. Utilizing big data, machine learning, and changing cultural norms can help advance psychology research and practices.

Genetic variation, brain, and intelligence differences

Ian J. Deary et al.

Summary: Individual differences in human intelligence, as assessed using cognitive test scores, are stable and predictive of educational, social, and health outcomes. Interest in the genetic, environmental, and social causes of intelligence, as well as its relationship with brain structure and functioning, has grown. Recent research has identified genetic loci associated with intelligence, as well as new brain imaging findings related to intelligence.

Inadequacies in the SES-Achievement model: Evidence from PISA and other studies

Gary N. Marks et al.

Summary: Students' socioeconomic status is a central factor in educational inequalities, but the current model faces challenges due to its ill-defined nature and reliance on unreliable proxy reports. The effects of SES on student achievement are moderate and weakened when considering factors such as parent ability. An alternative cognitive ability/genetic transmission model may provide more explanatory power in understanding student performance.

Screen time and working memory in adolescents: A longitudinal study

Pedro San Martin Soares et al.

Summary: The study found that in males, television and video game time at 11 years and computer time at ages 11 and 15 had a positive effect on working memory, with these effects being mediated through IQ. In females, there was no significant association between screen time measures at ages 11, 15, and 18 and working memory.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of discrepancies between logged and self-reported digital media use

Douglas A. Parry et al.

Summary: In a pre-registered meta-analysis, researchers found a moderate correlation between self-reported media use and logged measurements, indicating that self-reports were often inaccurate in reflecting actual media use. Measures of problematic media use showed an even weaker association with usage logs, raising concerns about the validity of findings relying solely on self-reported measures in media use studies.

Robust genetic nurture effects on education: A systematic review and meta-analysis based on 38,654 families across 8 cohorts

Biyao Wang et al.

Summary: Genetic nurture effects from parents influence offspring's educational outcomes through environmental pathways, which are smaller than direct genetic effects. These effects are largely influenced by parental education and socioeconomic status, with a need for greater inclusion of fathers in educational research. The findings provide consistent evidence of environmentally mediated parental genetic influences contributing to the intergenerational transmission of educational outcomes.

Change by challenge: A common genetic basis behind childhood cognitive development and cognitive training

Bruno Sauce et al.

Summary: The study found that cognitive challenges play a crucial role in the gene-environment interplay during cognitive development, with the genetic factor cogPGS significantly explaining working memory gains whether they came from development or training. These results reveal a key aspect of cognitive development, shedding new light on interindividual differences in education, brain plasticity in children, and the heritability increase of intelligence across the lifespan.

Nurture might be nature: cautionary tales and proposed solutions

Sara A. Hart et al.

Summary: Research suggests a link between home environment and children's outcomes, but parents also influence their children through both environment and genes. It is important to consider genetic influences when studying environmental effects, and genetic sensitive designs are ideal for addressing genetic confounding.
