Methods: A total of 1,243 Chinese undergraduate student gamers (57% female, M = 19.77, SD 1.29) were recruited at baseline survey (Wave 1 [W1]), with 622 574 them taking part in two follow-up surveys 2 [W2] 6 Wave 3 [W3] 12 months later), respectively. Results: The path model demonstrated, after controlling for autoregressive effect each variable, that consistently predicted not vice versa, while positive metacognitions about online gaming (MOG) significantly both tendency. Moreover, statistically significant mediation paths: (i) MOG [W1] → [W3]; (ii) identified.

This meta-analysis is the first synthesize overall of GD in East Asia investigate characteristics that influence estimates.

The Agency Healthcare Research Quality scale was used quality assessment. A random effect model calculate 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results In total, 22 articles (26 studies) comprising 51,525 participants included this meta-analysis. pooled 12%, CI (10%–15%); figure adjusted 6%, (3%–9%) a representative sample. Higher observed males than females (16% vs. 8%, respectively, P < 0.05 ). Subgroup meta-regression analyses revealed studies among gamers or those without sampling reported significantly higher rates. There no significant differences between countries/regions, sample size, score, proportion males, used. Discussion conclusions other world regions. Future should extend such epidemiological research regions accurate benefit local identification, prevention, policy formulation, treatment efforts. Considering its negative effects, effective preventive measures need greater attention.

Sleep disturbance and suicidal ideation mediated by psychotic-like experiences in adolescents: a two-wave longitudinal study

SLEEP, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 47(3)

Published: Jan. 17, 2024

Abstract Study Objectives Sleep disturbance may cause suicidal ideation (SI). This study aimed to examine their co-occurrence rate among adolescents and investigate whether psychotic-like experiences (PLEs) mediate this association. Methods A total of 17 722 Chinese were included in two-wave longitudinal study. The baseline survey (time 1, T1) was conducted between April 21 May 12, 2021, the follow-up 2, T2) implemented December 26, 2021. At T1, participants completed questionnaires assess sleep disturbance, duration, PLEs, SI, depressive symptoms, sociodemographic characteristics. T2, reported negative life events. Results SI prevalence decreased from 20.2% (T1) 18.4% (T2). Participants with showed significantly higher short duration compared those without SI. Baseline both associated increased risk 6 months later. These links mediated by independent covariates Conclusions findings provide a novel insight into mechanism linking problems suicidality, stress significance assessing addressing PLEs for adolescent suicide prevention intervention.
