JUEGOS DE VIDEO, CONDUCTA SEDENTARIA, ACTIVIDAD FÍSICA, ADOLESCENTE, ANCIANO
Resumen
En la actualidad estamos viviendo una pandemia provocada por el virus del SARS-CoV-2, el COVID-19, siendo lo más recomendado quedarse en casa para disminuir el contagio y que éste se reduzca al mínimo posible. En el siglo XXI la tecnología está más presente que nunca y forma parte de nuestra vida cotidiana. Dado que existe un importante abuso de aquélla, especialmente por parte de los adolescentes, desde nuestra perspectiva promotora del movimiento y de la reducción del comportamiento sedentario, proponemos el uso de los videojuegos activos como sustitución de los videojuegos convencionales. Para ello, se han revisado los principales beneficios que éstos pueden aportar, tanto a la población más joven como a los adultos mayores. Este último grupo de edad es uno de los más afectados por la pandemia y por tanto hay una fuerte recomendación para que permanezcan en sus hogares. No obstante, se recomienda hacer un uso responsable y no invertir un tiempo excesivo que pueda conllevar perjuicios.
