In simple regression, mild, IAD 19% (PR = 1.19; 95%CI: 1.05–1.35), 25% 1.25; 1.02–1.53) 53% 1.47; CI: 1.47–1.60) higher prevalence symptomatology; however, this not maintained multiple model. increased 196% 2.96; 1.86–4.71).

Excessive gameplay can have negative effects on both mental and physical health, especially among young people. Nowadays, social media platforms are bombarding users with gaming-related content daily. Understanding the effect of this people’s behavior is essential to gain insight into problematic gaming habits. However, issue yet be studied extensively. In study, we examined how affects adults explicitly implicitly. We 25 healthy (average age 21.5 ± 2.2) who played online games casually asked them report their desire. also conducted an implicit association test (IAT) measure attitudes toward content. investigated relationship between these measures various psychological factors, such as personality traits, self-efficacy, impulsiveness, cognitive flexibility. The results revealed that participants had a higher explicit desire when exposed cues than neutral cues. They robust positive attitude media. Explicit was positively correlated neuroticism levels. Furthermore, IAT negatively self-efficacy flexibility there were no significant correlations desire/IAT impulsiveness These findings suggest affect adults’ implicitly, highlighting need for further research prevent addiction in vulnerable individuals.

Data collected at baseline (2 weeks before intervention) 2-3 post during hours quiet classroom using teacher-supervised, printed surveys.

Typologies were compared problematic outcomes, behaviours, engagement, health wellbeing–related variables. Cluster analysis diverse international sample ( N = 913) identified three distinct profiles: immersed, balanced, detached gamers. Detached reported the highest disengaged coping. They also had worse than other clusters, despite engaging similar behaviours to immersed These novel findings emphasise importance an engaged style highlight risk using solely addiction‐based measures identify gaming, may overlook potentially adaptive behaviours.

Internet addiction (IA) and depression present significant public health challenges, especially during a pandemic. Previous research conducted outside of pandemic contexts highlighted the importance emotional regulation (ER) for depression, with specific strategies such as cognitive reappraisal (CR) expressive suppression (ES) showing effectiveness in predicting internalization problems. However, knowledge regarding ER IA remains limited, thus hindering our implementation effective strategies. This study aimed to examine relationships between IA, strategies, depressive symptoms, identify protective factors against IA. Additionally, it sought investigate mediating role symptoms. Data were collected from 824 students across pre-pandemic periods. Results highlight risks associated ES both symptoms while CR demonstrates potential reducing Interventions that promote development discourage reliance on can effectively mitigate
