“…Other study mentioned success regarding psychotherapy with their patients, but no data revealed this statement 62 . Two studies have demonstrated the association of CBT to electroacupuncture, revealing that it is more effective when these two interventions are applied simultaneously 65,66 . Other studies showed successful treatment 63,[67][68][69] .…”

Background: While several benefits are attributed to the Internet and video games, an important proportion of the population presents symptoms related to possible new technological addictions and there has been little discussion of treatment of problematic technology use. Although demand for knowledge is growing, only a small number of treatments have been described. Objective: To conduct a systematic review of the literature, to establish Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a possible strategy for treating Internet and video game addictions. Method: The review was conducted in the following databases: Science Direct on Line, PubMed, PsycINFO, Cochrane Clinical Trials Library, BVS and SciELO. The keywords used were: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy; therapy; treatment; with association to the terms Internet addiction and video game addiction. Given the scarcity of studies in the field, no restrictions to the minimum period of publication were made, so that articles found until October 2013 were accounted. Results: Out of 72 articles found, 23 described CBT as a psychotherapy for Internet and video game addiction. The manuscripts showed the existence of case studies and protocols with satisfactory efficacy. Discussion: Despite the novelty of technological dependencies, CBT seems to be applicable and allows an effective treatment for this population.

“…Participants in the active treatment group were treated with a multimodal group CBT which included effective communication with parents, management of online relationships, and techniques for recognizing and controlling problematic impulses. Zhu et al (2012) describe a study which combines psychological intervention on cognitive function and event-related potentials with electro-acupuncture as a treatment for patients with IA. Participants from all groups had significantly lower IA scores while scores of short-term memory capacity and short-term memory span increased significantly.…”

“…When the effect of CBT on IAD was analyzed on the basis of geographical location, we observed that seven of these studies were carried out in China [23,25,45,76,77,78,79], two in Germany [70,33], two in Greece [62,63], three in USA [43,74], one in Korea [39], and one in Netherlands [65]. No work was retrieved from Australia, New Zealand, Africa or South America, possibly may be due to that different methods are being carried out in these regions for the treatment of IAD.…”

Internet addiction disorder (IAD) has been proposed to describe uncontrollable, damaging use of Internet technology leading to some changes in the autonomic nervous system. IAD can be defined as an impulse-control disorder that does not involve an intoxicant. Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V) does not recognize it as a disease but the new approach of research domain criteria (RDoC) considers re-evaluating DSM because of the change in global prevalence of IAD from 0.3% to 38%. Treatment of IAD is still unsolved due to the lack of concrete evidence, knowledge, and information about the disease. Some therapeutic examples are medications and psychotherapies such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). The CBT approach addresses dysfunctional emotions, maladaptive behaviors and cognitive processes. Modified CBT is used for the treatment of IAD but better results are observed when it is combined with other therapies. This commentary is based on full research papers and some specific case reports recording CBT as the treatment for IAD. PubMed, Scopus, Ovid, ProQuest, ScienceDirect, and SpringerLink are the databases used for this commentary. More exhaustive research is needed in this field as to confirm the etiology of IAD and its intervention with CBT.

Abstract: The EA in combination with PI could improve the cognitive function of IA patients, and its mechanism might be related to the speedup of cerebral discrimination on external stimulus and the enhancement of effective resource mobilization during information processing of the brain.
