We examined the symptoms network of Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD). We recruited 793 heavy game players online and 184 of them were diagnosed with IGD. We measured IGD via the 27-item IGD Scale and analyzed symptoms to examine how they interacted with each other to drive the addictive behaviors. Furthermore, we added motives and psychological well-being variables into the network. We found that the most central symptoms were conflict, withdrawal, and tolerance. Overall, two distinct groups of symptoms were discovered: one group for addictive symptoms and the other for psychological consequences.
我们研究了网络成瘾障碍（IGD）的症状网络。我们在线招募了 793 名重度游戏玩家，其中 184 名被诊断为 IGD。我们通过 27 项 IGD 量表来衡量 IGD，并分析了症状，以考察它们是如何相互作用从而导致成瘾行为的。此外，我们还将动机和心理健康变量纳入到网络中。结果发现，最核心的症状是冲突、戒断和耐受。总的来说，发现了两组不同的症状：一组是成瘾症状，另一组是心理后果。
