This study deals with the Algerian child's use of electronic games, and the behavioral effects they produce on him.

In the field study, we relied on the analytical descriptive approach.

We asked them a set of questions to understand their habits of using electronic games and its effects.

Our study reached a set of results, the most important of which is that the child is highly addicted to electronic games, and he prefers games that contain scenes of violence, and he repeats these scenes his behavior with others in his daily life.
