Pentagon Looks to Diagnose PTSD… With Video Games

Chris Engel 10/4/123:30 PM

"To do their job and to stay alive, troops need to be in shape. They need have the right equipment. And they also need to be psychologically sound. The problem is that soldiers aren’t traditionally very forthcoming when it comes to talking about their mental health. That’s why the U.S. Army is proposing to use computer games to help with the diagnosis of disorders such as PTSD and mild traumatic brain injuries."
