> Ortiz de Gortari's studies suggest that GTP induces distress and dysfunction for around half of those gamers who say they have experienced it, with confusion, hyper-vigilance and irrationality among the symptoms. For others the only notable response may be a feeling of embarrassment that their game-play has spilled over into "real life".

Can anybody here relate to these negative reactions? For me, the tetris effect only causes mild amusement, not embarrassment or worse. It kind of seems like she's playing up the supposed harm to make her research sound more important.
