Figure 2From: Functional near-infrared spectroscopy studies in childrenSchematic image of neural signals in children while playing video games. Neuronal activity in the occipital area caused by visual stimulation transmits and activates the motor cortex area without involving the prefrontal neuronal activities. Blood flow in the prefrontal area might be diverted into the motor cortex area (curved arrows), as neuronal activities around the motor cortex were activated more with frequent tapping on the game controller.Back to article page
