“…6 and 7(b) about the γ-dependence of the equilibrium states, the stronger social reinforcement makes the effective treatment operation harder because it requires the larger value of σ, that is, the higher efficiency of the treatment operation. Although such effect of the inherent social reinforcements of online gaming were indicated by many previous works [4,8,11,17,22,28], no mathematical model on the population dynamics for the addictive gamer involved the strength of social reinforcement to discuss its contribution to the dynamical consequence. From our analysis on a simple model involving its strength it is implied that there could exist a case with a hysteresis nature of the population dynamics, that is, with a bistable situation.…”

“…As the number of internet users appears to steadily increase each year [31], IGD is bound to increase as well [4,7], whereas the present public attention would be so weak as to aware its harmfulness in the public health [3], and the prevalence estimates vary significantly according to the criteria and the cultural factors [15,21,25]. The exact size and nature of IGD is still waiting for the definitive investigations even after a number of researches on the consequences of excessive and addictive gaming [8,12,23,24].…”

“…According to statistical studies on children and adolescents [22], as well as on adults [28], a prevailing reason why internet gamers transition into addiction is the social aspect of the internet game (also see [11,17]). It may be the significant factor to distinguish the internet gaming addiction from the other addictive behaviors related to the internet use [4,8]. As stated in [22], "Internet and role-playing games possess more addictive potential than offline games because of their inherent social reinforcements".…”

As the number of internet users appears to steadily increase each year, Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) is bound to increase as well. The question how this increase will take place, and what factors have the largest impact on this increase, naturally arises. We consider a system of ordinary differential equations as a simple mathematical model of the population dynamics about the internet gaming. We assume three stages about the internet gamer’s state: moderate, addictive, and under treatment. The transition of the gamer’s state between the moderate and the addictive stages is significantly affected by the social nature of internet gaming. As the activity of social interaction gets higher, the gamer would be more likely to become addictive. With the inherent social reinforcement of internet game, the addictive gamer would hardly recontrol his/herself to recover to the moderate gamer. Our result on the model demonstrates the importance of earlier initiation of a system to check the IGD and lead to some medical/therapeutic treatment. Otherwise, the number of addictive gamers would become larger beyond the socially controllable level.

“…It is possible that Facebook is generally for people to promote themselves and to create their image (39,57). Cudo (58) found that Facebook intrusion could be negatively predicted by self-esteem, and this relationship was fully mediated by depression. Błachnio et al (7) suggested that Facebook intrusion was predicted by depression, but the reverse relationship between these factors is also possible.…”

Background: Social networking sites (SNSs) play an important role in many aspects of life nowadays, and it seems to be crucial to explore their impact on human well-being and functioning. The main aim of the study was to examine the mediating role of Facebook intrusion between positive capital and general distress. Positive capital was considered as comprising self-esteem, ego-resiliency, and self-control, while general distress was seen as having three dimensions: depression, anxiety, and stress.Methods: The sample consisted of N = 4,495 participants (M = 22.96 years, SD = 5.46) from 14 countries: Australia, Cyprus, Greece, Hong Kong, Lithuania, New Zealand, Peru, Poland, Russia, Spain, Turkey, Ukraine, United Kingdom, and United States. We used the following methods: the Facebook Intrusion Questionnaire (FIQ), the Self-Esteem Scale (SES), the Brief Self-Control Scale (SCS), The Ego Resiliency Revised Scale and the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21).Results: We found that Facebook intrusion was a mediator between self-esteem and general distress and between self-control and general distress.Limitations: The present study was based on a cross-sectional study, and the measures used were self-report measures. The majority of the participants were recruited using convenience sampling.Conclusions: The present findings contribute to a better understanding on how the social media have impact on individual mental health. Implications for future studies are discussed.

Background: Psychological characteristics could significantly impact applications for cosmetic surgery as well as precognition and satisfaction with surgery. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between perfectionism, early maladaptive schemas, attachment styles, and body image concern by the mediating role of self-esteem in cosmetic surgery applicants. Methods: This was a predictive correlational study. The statistical population of the study included all female applicants for cosmetic surgery referring to cosmetic surgery centers in Tehran City, Iran, in 2020. A sample size of 400 women was selected based on Klein’s model (2016). The required data were collected by Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) (1989), Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (MPS), Young Schema Questionnaire (YSQ-S3), Adult Attachment Scale (AAS), and Body Image Concern Inventory (BICI), and analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient and structural equations in SPSS and AMOS. Results: The obtained results signified a significant relationship between perfectionism, early maladaptive schemas, attachment styles, self-esteem, and body image concerns (P<0.01). Furthermore, the modified model presented a good fit (The Root Mean Square Error of Approximation (RMSEA) =0.061, GFI=0.989, IFI=0.987, P<0.05); the indirect paths of perfectionism, early maladaptive schema, and attachment styles through self-esteem were also significant. Conclusion: The evaluated model indicated a good fit; thus, it can play an essential role in recognizing the factors affecting the body image concerns of female cosmetic surgery applicants.
