This study researches how video games affect children's communication. The method of this paper is qualitative, which analyses content from previous studies that conduct surveys and interviews towards children and their parents regarding the children's communication skills, behaviour pro-social skills and speech development.

The finding of this study is that video games affect children's communication more negatively toward their social skills, problem behaviour, and pro-social behaviour. |
