TY - JOUR PY - 2013// TI - Video games, immersion, and cognitive aggression: does the controller matter? JO - Media psychology A1 - McGloin, Rory A1 - Farrar, Kirstie A1 - Krcmar, Marina SP - 65 EP - 87 VL - 16 IS - 1 N2 - The influence of video game realism and controller naturalness on aggression was examined with an experiment that manipulated game realism and controller naturalness. Perceived controller naturalness increased perceptions of realism of the game and led to greater immersion. The more realistic game was perceived as such and led to greater immersion. Ultimately, greater immersion led to more cognitive aggression.

RESULTS are discussed in terms of a mental models approach and the process of model matching.
