Category - Logical Reasoning

Nick: “Playing video games is a complete waste of time. Every hour a child spends playing video games instead of reading or learning a new sport, is spent in a completely unproductive way.”

Martha: “I agree that video games are not a great way to spend time, but if children were not playing video games, they might be doing something even worse. Video games keep children from committing mischief like graffiti or playing pranks.”

Nick and Martha would be most likely to disagree about which of the following?
  1. Whether video games or computer games are a better use of a child’s time.
  2. Whether video games are likely to contribute to poor grades.
  3. Whether playing video games is the best use of one’s time.
  4. Whether children would spend the time not playing video games doing productive or nonproductive activities.
  5. Whether children who stopped playing video games would be more or less violent than they are today.
