Use action video games to train visual processing and inference speed

Playing action video games can improve low-level visual processing such as contrast sensitivity and speed probabilistic inference; a specific protocol mentioned was 40 hours of Call of Duty in self-identified non-gamers, with effects persisting up to a year later.

“You take someone who that self-identified non-gamer, make them play 40 hours of Call of Duty, and now their contrast sensitivity looks like a video game player. And it persists. You know, go back, measure them a year later.”
