Use of the internet and videogames by children and adolescents has risen dramatically over the last decade. Increasing evidence of internet and videogame addiction among children is causing concern due to its harmful physical, emotional and social consequences. There is also emerging evidence for an association between computer and videogame addiction and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
To investigate the relationship between ADHD and internet addiction.
We compared 50 male schoolchildren, mean age 13 years, diagnosed with ADHD to 50 male schoolchildren without ADHD on measures of internet addiction, internet use and sleep patterns.
Children with ADHD had higher scores on the Internet Addiction Test (IAT), used the internet for longer hours, and went to sleep later than those without ADHD.
These findings indicate an association of ADHD, sleep disorders and internet/videogame addiction.
在过去十年中，儿童和青少年使用互联网和电子游戏的情况急剧增加。越来越多的证据表明儿童存在网络和电子游戏成瘾问题，因其对身体、情感和社交产生有害影响而引发关注。也有新证据表明电脑和电子游戏成瘾与注意力缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）之间存在关联。
研究ADHD与网络成瘾之间的关系。
我们将50名平均年龄13岁、被诊断患有ADHD的男学生与50名没有ADHD的男学生在网络成瘾、互联网使用和睡眠模式方面进行了比较。
患有ADHD的儿童在网络成瘾测试（IAT）中的得分更高，上网时间更长，且比没有ADHD的儿童晚睡。
这些发现表明ADHD、睡眠障碍与网络/电子游戏成瘾之间存在关联。
