Researchers found playing online role-playing games like D&D improves social skills of individuals with autism.
Researchers from the University of Plymouth have found that playing online role-playing games, such as Dungeons and Dragons (D&D), can significantly improve the social skills of individuals with autism.
A study involving eight participants who played the game both in person and online for six weeks found that the game provided a welcoming atmosphere, allowing participants to apply aspects of their new personas in their daily lives and leading to improved self-perception.
D&D's structured format and focus on individual character development may be particularly beneficial for autistic players who often struggle with social interaction and communication.
