Essentially, researchers observed that men who were performing poorly in the game (failing to kill others, dying themselves) made "significantly more negative statements" toward a simulated, female-voiced player than toward any male players. The more poorly male players performed, the more negative comments they made about the female player through their microphones into the game. [/quote]
