Could you give me a link to a picture or illstration of my project. Problem: "How do video games affect blood pressure." If not, could you give me some tips how i should create a picture or illsturation. Also, could illstruation be drawn? (My teacher has been absent and didn't give us that much details about the project)

At Monday i will review things my classmates had already done and i would need help on farther notice.


Thank you.

Experts only have to check the forums once a day and we are in all different time zones, so you shouldn't expect an immediate response. Posting again won't help.

I don't understand your original question. It is your project, why would we have an illustration for you? Since we don't know exactly what you did or measured, how can we find a correct picture? Usually people take photographs of there experiment or draw a diagram to illustrate the board. Also, the data you collected should be graphed. You can use a program like microsoft excel or you can draw a graph by hand. Since I don't know what your independent and dependent variables are, I cannot help you with the specifics of graph making.

The web research is problematic, generally based on type of game:

Violent video games lead to increased blood pressure (1), and nonviolent video games have no effect on blood pressure (2). There is one site, however, where repetitive exposure to [violent] video games results in decreased blood pressure (3)!

So, a well-designed experiment is key!
