This document summarizes several sources that discuss the cognitive benefits of stories and games:
- Reading stories activates neural representations of visual and motor experiences according to a 2009 Psychological Science study.
- Organizational stories can be more vivid and persuasive than quantitative data according to two studies from 1982 and 1983.
- A 2013 meta-analysis in the Journal of Educational Psychology found that serious games have positive cognitive and motivational effects on players.
- A 2014 Psychology and Aging study concluded from a meta-analysis that video game training enhances cognition in older adults.
- Two identical 2014 PNAS studies demonstrated that active learning increases student performance in science, engineering, and mathematics.

The document summarizes the reasons why the author enjoys the movie Soul Surfer. The author likes true stories and found it amazing that 13-year-old Bethany Hamilton lost 60% of her blood in a shark attack. The author also loves surfing and can relate to Bethany. The movie kept the author entertained with many events happening simultaneously. Scenes of Bethany surfing with her friend made the author happy, while a competition without good waves and the shark attack made the author feel worried and terrified. Though sad Bethany could no longer do everything after losing her arm, the author was inspired that Bethany got back in the water surfing after months and years of not giving up.Soul surfer
