Playing video games has become an integral part of the daily lives of people around the world. Due to the increasing participation of people in this activity, more and more research explore what impact playing video games has on people, among other things, what is the effect of playing video games on the reaction time. The term sensorimotor reaction refers to the time that has elapsed between the application of a stimulus and the subsequent response of the person to that stimulus. This is exactly the aim of this cross-sectional study, to explore is there a difference in the speed of reaction time between people who play video games and those who do not. The study involved 100 participants whose visual response to visual stimuli was measured using the Human Benchmark Reaction Time test. Addition to the above, participants completed a short questionnaire that collected basic information about the characteristics of them and their tendency to play video games and habits related to this activity. The results show that there is a difference in the speed of reaction time between people who play video games and those who do not, but its statistical significance is lost after normalization by gender. Also, the results show that the increase in time spent playing video games is associated with a reduction in reaction time to visual stimuli. Based on the results, it can be concluded that there is a connection between playing video games and the speed of reaction time.
