Representation of Disability in Children’s Video Games looks at how children’s engagement with characters and stories in video games helps create the perception of disability they have as teens and adults. Drawing on child development theory supported by neuroscience the book shows how the scaffold of information the schema adults have of disability is first created at a very young age as they interact through play with characters with disabilities in narrative video games. Positing that early video game play experiences should provide exposure to narrative schemas that add understanding and help create meaning about the disability represented the book presents how such representation in children’s video games maps against cognitive development and the psychomotor and cognitive needs and abilities of children 3–12. Through close readings of over 40 PEGI 3 and PEGI 7 (ESRB E 10+) games and analysis of games as diverse as Backyard Baseball and Sly Cooper the author defines broad categories of representation: representation as cosmetic providing exposure but not game play utility; as incidental used as a device that provides purpose for the narrative; or as more authentically representing the disability as integral to the character and their life. The book provides readers with an overview of contemporary games that betters their understanding of how children’s games present disability and how children create their perceptions through interaction with characters and stories. This book will be of interest to academics and students of game studies in topics such as behavioural science ethics and HCI as well as in sociology communications and digital media. It is pertinent in particular to game developers and to educators disability advocates parents and policy makers.
