The general increase in screen time as a time-consuming leisure activity among children and youth has been a puzzle to the adult world. Specifically, parents and professionals who work with children and youth express concern for the effect excessive screen time including gaming may have for child and youth development. The clinical picture of problematic gaming and excessive screen time describes compulsion, psychiatric and physical symptoms, impaired cognitive development, and school performance. The aim of this project is to set up and evaluate an easily accessible family centered treatment intervention for a child and adolescent psychiatry population. This study can lead to reduced suffering by optimization the care interventions for patients with problematic gaming and gambling.
The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic potential of real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) neurofeedback in alleviating internet gaming disorder (IGD) symptoms by training individuals with such symptoms to down-regulate the activity in their reward-processing-related midbrain regions.
Gaming is a common leisure activity, both for children and adult, and while it is generally a positive experience for most, it can lead to problems for some individuals. There is currently a lack of knowledge of when video gaming becomes a problem and why, and there is a lack of evidence-based interventions for treating Gaming disorder. This pilot study aims to evaluate a new treatment manual for Gaming Disorder, which consists of modules based on cognitive behavioral therapy and family therapy. The therapy can be provided as individual therapy to the patient, to relatives, or as family therapy involving both the patient and their relatives. This study is an effectiveness trials and will follow all-patients at the clinic who will be offered the treatment. The hypothesis is that the manual-based psychotherapy for Gaming Disorder will result in a reduction of Gaming Disorder symptoms and psychological distress, as well as an improvement in daily functioning.
Research evidence identified internet gaming as an emerging problem in youth across the globe and a lot of interventions are being used for managing gaming and associated psychological problems considering cultural aspects. Therefore, the present study aims at investigating the efficacy of Indigenously adapted cognitive behavior therapy for internet gaming addiction among Pakistani Youth. For this purpose, adolescents enrolled in 8th-12th grades in elementary and higher secondary schools in twin cities of Pakistan. Adolescents who scored high on Internet gaming disorder in screening will be included in the study and further detailed investigation will be completed by administering semi-structured Clinical Interviews, Coping inventory, self-control, and social connectedness. Participants will be divided into 2 groups i.e. experimental and control groups.
The present study examines the efficacy of CMI in reducing adolescent IGD symptoms and enhancing social support given by CSOs among adolescents with high risk of IGD (probable IGD cases screened positive by validated tools). It is hypothesized that the intervention group (with CMI plus IGD education materials for both the clients and his/her selected CSO) would show more improvements in reduction in the severity of IGD, motivation to change maladaptive gaming behaviour, craving on gaming, and social support obtained from CSOs than to the control group (only educational materials for both the client and the CSOs).
Internet Gaming Disorder (IOB) is an important problem that is increasingly prevalent all over the world and can be prevented before it develops. This research is a single-blind, randomized controlled experimental study to evaluate the effect of Internet-based education given to parents on children's Internet gaming disorder. 96 children and their parents studying in the central districts of a province and at risk for the development of IOBB were divided into intervention (48) and control groups (48) according to the randomization list. The "I know digital games" training consisting of three modules and 10 videos was given to the intervention group via the website prepared by the researchers, and no intervention was made to the control group. The research data were collected at three different times using the "Internet Gaming Disorder Scale Short Form" (İOOBÖ9-SF) and the forms developed by the researchers. In the analysis of data; descriptive statistics, Chi-square, Mann Whitney U test, and repeated measures ANOVA were used. Before the analysis, eight missing data in the control group were estimated with regression estimation models from intent to treat protocols. Statistical significance level p ≤0.05 was taken in all analyzes. Parents and children in the intervention and control groups were similar in terms of sociodemographic characteristics and playing characteristics (p>0.05). It would be beneficial to involve parents in the interventions that nurses will make for primary school children in order to prevent IOB.
This study aims to test the longitudinal association between parental IGD and adolescent IGD, after controlling for covariates at personal, interpersonal and familial levels and the mediation effects of parenting on the intergenerational transmission. This study is a two-year 3-wave longitudinal study. Students and parents will complete questionnaires at Time1, Time2, and Time3.
This RCT study develops a brief group-based CBT intervention. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of the CBT in reducing IGD, compare to a wait-list control group.
The overall aim of this experimental study is to apply the new paradigm of substance addiction intervention to the study of Internet gaming disorder(IGD) subjects' intervention.
