This scatterplot shows the relationship between video gaming and three dependent variables: consumer activism intention, discussing global warming, and political action intention. Being a video gamer had a small but statistically significant positive relationship with each variable: political behavior intentions (b = 0.05, p = 0.02), consumer activism intentions (b = 0.09, p = 0.003), and discussing global warming (b = 0.06, p = 0.03).
