“simulations or training situations” doesn’t necessarily sound like fun.
Seems like some would be and some wouldn’t. Although those are the ‘medium significance’ ones; the largest category is the 188 that used ‘low significance’ tasks. Still doesn’t map exactly to ‘fun’, but I expect those ones are at least very low stress.
Generally, comparing kids vs adults could be interesting, although it is difficult to say what would be an equivalent mental effort. Specifically I am curious about the impact of school. Oh, we should also compare homeschooled kids vs kids in school, to separate the effects of school and age.
That would definitely be interesting; it wouldn’t surprise me if at least a couple of the studies in the meta-analysis did that.
