Do smokers understand the mortality effects of smoking?
These findings suggest that at least heavy smokers significantly underestimate their risk of premature mortality.
In the extremes of video-game experience tested in this study, game playing was inversely correlated with the ability to learn robotic suturing. This study suggests that advanced surgical skills such as robotic suturing may be learned more quickly by athletes and musicians. Prior extensive video-game exposure had a negative impact on robotic performance.
