“…Research on the relationship between ADHD and video game addiction has mainly been conducted among adolescents and young adults, and studies like ours that focus on children are rare (19). Our study highlighted a vulnerability in ADHD children as they exhibit more addictive behaviors with respect to video games and demonstrate prolonged periods of use.…”

Video game addiction in young children is relevant, but it is especially important for children with ADHD. In order to obtain more data about the use of video games by Canadian children, and in particular by ADHD children, we explored the modalities of use (playtime, addiction score and usage by age) and compared them between ADHD and non-ADHD children. We then examined associations between addiction and ADHD symptoms and explored innovative results about the gender impact. Our study was cross-sectional, multicenter in child psychiatrist departments, exploratory and descriptive. We recruited three groups of children aged 4–12 years: the ADHD Group, the Clinical-Control Group and the Community-Control Group. For each group, the material used consisted of questionnaires completed by one of the parents. Data collection took place from December 2016 to August 2018 in Montreal (n = 280). Our study highlighted a vulnerability in ADHD children: they would exhibit more addictive behaviors with respect to video games (Addiction score: 1.1025 in ADHD Group vs. 0.6802 in Community-Control Group) and prolonged periods of use. We also observed a correlation between the severity of ADHD symptoms and excessive use of video games (p = 0.000). Children with severe ADHD showed significantly higher addiction scores and, in a multiple regression analysis a combination of gender and ADHD explained the excessive use of video games.

“…İçsel faktörler; düşük benlik saygısı, öz düzenleme sorunları, oyun oynama motivasyonu, yapısal ve fonksiyonel nörobiyolojik anormallikler, depresyon, DEHB, sosyal fobi gibi komorbid hastalıklardır. Dışsal faktörler; ebeveyn sorunları, olumsuz rol modeller, ihmal, aile içi şiddet gibi ailesel faktörler, ilişki sorunları ve sosyal izolasyon gibi sosyal faktörler ve oyunun kendisine ait faktörlerdir (58). Bu faktörler dışında henüz belirlenmiş faktörler ve risk grubundaki bireyler için tetikleyici faktörler de oyun bağımlılığının oluşmasına yol açabilir.…”

“…Bu nedenle ebeveynlerin çocuklarını dikkatli bir şekilde gözlemlemesi, normalden farklı durumlar geliştiğinde, zaman kaybetmeden yardım arayışlarına girmesi, çocuğunun uzun soluklu tedaviler almasını engelleyip çocuğunun bağımlı olmasını önleyebilir. Oyun bağımlılığını önlemede; öz düzenleme yaklaşımı, oyunun türüne ve süresine kısıtlama getirmeye yönelik psiko-eğitimler, sosyal beceri eğitimleri, sosyal ve sportif etkinlikleri içeren alternatif etkinliklere yönlendirme kullanılabilmektedir(58).Oyun bağımlılığının tedavilerinin etkinliğini değerlendiren çok az çalışma vardır. Oyun bağımlılığının tedavisinde i) farmakolojik tedavi, ii) farmakolojik olmayan tedavi ve iii) kombine yani farmakolojik tedavi ile birlikte uygulanan farmakolojik olmayan tedavi yaklaşımları kullanılmaktadır.…”

Many digital games have emerged with the effect of technological developments in the 21st century. The overuse of these games has brought new diseases along. The most common of these diseases is game addiction. Game addiction is one of the behavioral addictions. Game addiction is defined by features such as being mentally busy with the game, thinking about the game, disrupting daily routines, continuing to play despite having negative consequences in academic, social and family life, reacting when playing is prevented, conflict, and exhibiting withdrawal symptoms. Studies on the definition, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of this disease in our country are at the beginning level. However, along the Covid-19 pandemic, the time spent especially by children and adolescents for playing has increased, and children and adolescents have started to show signs of addiction. It is predicted that after the pandemic, applications to be made to health facilities related to game addiction will increase. For this reason, the study aimed to examine the definition, symptoms, prognosis, diagnostic criteria, prevalence, gender difference, play time, risk factors, effects on the individual and treatment of game addiction. The feature that distinguishes this study from other studies is that it includes a comprehensive explanation of game addiction and the information that forms the basis of the concept of game addiction. The topics discussed in this study are thought to be important, as they will form the basis of studies on game addiction and provide an understanding of the subject.

“…Internal factors include low self-esteem, emotional dysregulation, motivation to play video games, neurobiological abnormalities of the individual, depression, ADHD, and comorbid psychiatric diseases such as social phobia.

This study aimed to contribute to the literature on the factors causing video game addiction through examination of the relationship of video game addiction with childhood experiences and emotion dysregulation. The study population consisted of university students between 18 and 35 years of age. The data were obtained through surveys developed on Google Forms, which were sent to the smartphones of the university students, who were obtained from the university registration system and who agreed to volunteer. Participants responded to the Game Addiction Scale (GAS), the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), and the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS). Data obtained from 269 university students were examined in the study. Looking at the correlation between the scales, a significant positive correlation was observed between malfunctions and clarity (r: 0.206) among the video game addiction subscales. In addition, success was significantly and positively correlated with total DERS (r: 0.211) and CTQ scores (r: 0.207), and economic profits had a significant positive correlation with DERS (r: 0.211) and total CTQ scores (r:0.207). In the linear regression model concerning childhood traumas and difficulties in emotional regulation constructed for video game addiction scores, sexual abuse (β: 0,731) and clarity (β: 1,019) subscale scores were observed to have positive contributions. Many types of addictions, especially video game addiction, can be prevented by preventing adverse childhood experiences, providing physical and emotional support to the child, and ensuring that emotion regulation skills are used effectively. Considering the changing characteristic of difficulties in emotional regulation among these two factors, improving the emotion regulation skills of individuals with adverse childhood experiences can reduce the addiction risk concerning video games.
