Video game playing as a component and factor forming an identity
Míka, David Tomáš ; Mlynář, Jakub (advisor) ; Šubrt, Jiří (referee)
Main focus of this work is to examine whether video gaming experience has an impact on a person's identity. As the impact has been proven during the personal practical research, this work further tries to explain how exactly these two variables - videogames and identity - corelate with each other. This work also tries to describe how exactly the gaming influence manifests within and upon a person's identity. These descriptions and explanations are often done through citing real quotes of casual to semi-hardcore gamers, gathered with self-made interviews. Main topics in this work are: change of identity, perception of reality, world knowledge and worldview, personal values and morality beliefs, strong and important relationships and human connections, memory recalling and lastly, media comparison. Keywords: video games, identity, Self, interview, impact and change, world perception, memory, immersion.
