The choking game (TCG) is an adolescent activity in which asphyxiation is used to obtain a "high," occasionally resulting in seizures or death. A plethora of TCG information is available through YouTube, though this content has not been evaluated recently. The current study described TCG as portrayed in YouTube videos and compared views and ratings of TCG videos to unrelated videos. The TCG videos demonstrated diverse methods of asphyxiation, with a minority showing injury to the participants. TCG videos were less likely to be commented on or rated positively than non-choking game videos. TCG prevention videos differed significantly from actual TCG videos in the way they depicted the social context of TCG. Thus, TCG videos are accessible through YouTube, but the prevention materials available on YouTube are not accurate or representative. Accurate and educational online prevention materials should be created to decrease the occurrence of TCG.
窒息游戏（TCG）是一种青少年活动，通过窒息来获得“快感”，偶尔会导致癫痫发作或死亡。通过YouTube可以获取大量关于窒息游戏的信息，不过这些内容最近尚未得到评估。当前的研究描述了YouTube视频中所呈现的窒息游戏，并将窒息游戏视频的观看量和评分与非相关视频进行了比较。窒息游戏视频展示了多种窒息方法，少数视频显示参与者受到了伤害。与非窒息游戏视频相比，窒息游戏视频获得评论或正面评分的可能性较小。窒息游戏预防视频在描绘窒息游戏的社会背景方面与实际的窒息游戏视频有显著差异。因此，通过YouTube可以获取窒息游戏视频，但YouTube上现有的预防材料并不准确或具有代表性。应创建准确且具有教育意义的在线预防材料，以减少窒息游戏的发生。
