2/29 world of warcraft

Some researchers decided to do a study on World of Warcraft and how it affects older people's intelligence. They took a few people ages 60-77 and had them play warcraft for two hours a day, for two weeks. They gave them tests before they started playing. World of warcraft seemed to improve the subjects spacial and focusing ability. It improved the most in people who scored lowest on the previous tests. The company that makes World of Warcraft did not fund this project, but the National Science Foundation did.
