Depression is a growing problem among American teenagers, and a group of researchers at Dartmouth College have found a novel way to help reduce it: playing a video game. The game is called PlaySmart and it works by giving players real-life scenarios to navigate “and then they have the opportunity to interact and choose healthy options or unhealthy options," said Caroline Barry, who is on the team at Dartmouth that developed PlaySmart. "If they choose unhealthy options, it takes them down a track with more severe consequences.” The game is, in some ways, like rehearsing for complicated situations that a teenager might face at home or at school "without the severe consequences of real life," she said.
