Abstract
The study investigates the potential benefits of engaging in tabletop roleplaying games on children’s prosocial behaviors as measured by the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. The analysis accounted for possible variance caused by children’s gender, children’s age, parent’s education, and whether the child participated in an organized-play program.
