BACKGROUND AND AIMS
Research into work addiction has steadily grown over the past decade. However, the literature is far from unified and there has been much debate on many different issues.
AIM AND METHODS
This paper comprises a narrative review and focuses on 10 myths about work addiction that have permeated the psychological literature and beyond. The 10 myths examined are (a) work addiction is a new behavioral addiction, (b) work addiction is similar to other behavioral addictions, (c) there are only psychosocial consequences of work addiction, (d) work addiction and workaholism are the same thing, (e) work addiction exclusively occurs as a consequence of individual personality factors, (f) work addiction only occurs in adulthood, (g) some types of work addiction are positive, (h) work addiction is a transient behavioral pattern related to situational factors, (i) work addiction is a function of the time spent engaging in work, and (j) work addiction is an example of overpathogizing everyday behavior and it will never be classed as a mental disorder in the DSM.
RESULTS
Using the empirical literature to date, it is demonstrated that there is evidence to counter each of the 10 myths.
CONCLUSION
It appears that the field is far from unified and that there are different theoretical constructs underpinning different strands of research.
背景与目的
过去十年中，对工作成瘾的研究稳步增长。然而，文献远非统一，许多不同的问题仍存在很大争议。
目的与方法
本文是一篇叙述性综述，重点关注了 10 个关于工作成瘾的误解，这些误解在心理学文献及其他领域中普遍存在。本文检验的 10 个误解是：（a）工作成瘾是一种新的行为成瘾；（b）工作成瘾与其他行为成瘾相似；（c）工作成瘾只有心理社会后果；（d）工作成瘾和工作狂是一回事；（e）工作成瘾仅由个体人格因素引起；（f）工作成瘾仅发生在成年后；（g）某些类型的工作成瘾是积极的；（h）工作成瘾是一种与情境因素相关的短暂行为模式；（i）工作成瘾是从事工作时间的函数；（j）工作成瘾是对日常行为过度病理化的一个例子，它永远不会被 DSM 归类为精神障碍。
结果
利用迄今为止的实证文献，证明了有证据可以反驳这 10 个误解中的每一个。
结论
似乎该领域远未统一，不同的理论构建支撑着不同的研究分支。
