Popis: This study assessed whether playing video games enhanced laparoscopic skill acquisition for preclinical medical students with no past surgical exposure. By the second attempt on a peg transfer task, there was no significant difference in timing between the two groups, indicating that video games did not confer a skill acquisition benefit in the gamer group.
