“…PUI appears particularly common among young adults ( Holdoš, 2017 ; Liang, Zhou, Yuan, Shao, & Bian, 2016 ), with an estimated prevalence of 28.6% reported recently ( Hassan, Alam, Wahab, & Hawlader, 2020 ). Furthermore, psychological distress and social distancing may contribute to the increased use of the internet during the COVID-19 pandemic ( Allahyari, Emadi Chashmi, Mahmud, & Ahmadi, 2022 ; Shahrajabian et al., 2021 , 2022 ), with concomitant concerns regarding mental health ( Gjoneska et al, 2022 ; Király et al, 2020 ).…”

IntroductionConsidering adverse correlates of problematic use of internet use (PUI), the present study evaluated an intervention aimed at PUI and several putative underpinnings.MethodsA randomized controlled trial study investigated the efficacy of emotional working memory training (eWMT) in improving impulsivity, risky decision-making, and cognitive emotion-regulation (CER) strategies among individuals with PUI in comparison with a placebo group. Young adults (N = 36) with PUI were either trained for 20 sessions in an n-back dual emotional task (eWMT; n = 18) or a feature-matching task (placebo; n = 18).ResultsTwenty continuous sessions of eWMT significantly improved participants' impulsivity, risky decision-making, CER, internet use and PUI symptoms in the short term, compared to the placebo condition.DiscussionThese preliminary results suggest that eWMT may constitute a promising intervention for PUI and improving cognitive and emotional functioning, and larger, longer studies are warranted.
