Relativity new blog by a few fellow gamers. This week we are doing our first theme week which is focused around SWTOR PvP but usually we write about MMOs and gaming in general. Often connections are made between gaming and how it ties back to psychology.

 

Here are some of our topics, have a look if you are interested!

 

Does gaming impact my dreams?

What gamers dream of? Looking at research supporting that gamers are more often lucid dreamers than their peers.

 

How did your addiction begin?

Canis tells her story.

 

Gaming and self-esteem

Looking closer at the connection between MMO gamers and self-esteem through interview with researcher. This two part article explores the connection between self-esteem, escapism and the trinity role system utilised in most MMOs. What does the role you choose say about you?

 

Guilds and social identity in MMORPGs

Do we have an online social identity? Can it come to over shadow our RL social identity?

 

Social anxiety and WoW

Interview with Mipsy, GM of Paranoid; a WoW guild specifically for people suffering from social anxiety.

 

The Psychology behind Character Creation

In the self esteem survey 7.3% were unemployed, 49.6% are employed, and 30.6% are students.

 

I'm curious as to what the other 12.5% doing with their life.

 

Although I will say that as a tanking player in MMOs, it seems that there are very few women who play the role. At least very few that I've met.

They've moved past "life" into a realm incomprehensible to mere humans.

Maybe they're retired or simply not actively searching for work and living off their parents instead (NEET).

Well that was shockingly non-informative.
