Is there a link between playing violent video games and engaging in aggressive behavior?

Explanation:

For a topic to be within the scope of social psychology, there should be a focus on anything considered "a social situation", that will influence the behaviour.

In the mentioned case, since playing video games happens to be a social practice (because people are assumed to play together and interact in the video game) , therefore the possibility of that social practice influencing their behaviour at personal, laboral, social levels will be measured.

When asking...

Is there a link between playing violent video games and engaging in aggressive behavior?

Social psychologists relate aggression and behaviour and anything that is intended to harm another will be considered aggressive behaviour.

They will often seek the underlying causes of social practices , and how they are socially constructed, how they are being expressed and how they are shaped.
