In modern age, technology has dominated our life so deeply that libraries have shrunk to computer servers and playgrounds have shrunk to gaming consoles. The latter has influenced the mind and body. Present study which is based on the method of questionnaire surveys young people who have been playing computer games. Here we attempt to find out if there is any positive or negative impact on the mental concentration power of the gamers. It has been found that there is a positive effect on the power of concentration, but signs are also there of the other way round. Within the limits of this study, it shows some direction for further studies.
