Research suggests that the brains of people who regularly play computer games differ from those of infrequent gamers, the BBC reported.

A study in teenagers showed the "reward hub", which is involved in addiction, was larger in regular players.

A report in Translational Psychiatry said it was unknown if games changed the brain or if brain differences made people more likely to play.

Experts said more studies were needed to make sense of the findings.

游戏玩家的大脑与众不同

       经常玩电脑游戏的人的大脑和不常玩的人的大脑不尽相同。

       据英国广播公司报道，一项针对青少年的研究表明，常玩游戏的人的大脑中的“奖赏中心”面积比较大，而该区域是与上瘾有关系的。

       《转化精神病学》上的报告称，目前还不清楚到底是游戏改变了大脑，还是大脑差异导致某些人更爱玩游戏。

       专家表示，要弄清该发现到底意味着什么，还需要更多的研究。

       据悉，玩电脑游戏会产生上瘾及推理能力提高等一系列效应。
