Since the acceptance of Internet gaming disorder (IGD) as a "disorder due to addictive behaviors", research has proliferated exponentially. The present review focuses on the conceptualization of IGD, its diagnosis and assessment, associated factors and existing prevention and treatment plans to address it.
The discrepancies between the diagnostic criteria for IGD proposed by the two central diagnostic entities, as well as the questioning of their clinical validity, have generated multiple proposals for the diagnosis and psychometric evaluation of IGD. Likewise, there have been numerous suggestions to prevent this pathology, with the involvement of governments, the gaming industry and health institutions. Finally, multiple treatment plans have been proposed, both pharmacological and psychological, although only the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy has been tested. It is essential, therefore, to delve deeper into this disorder by addressing the central limitations of the current literature.
自互联网游戏障碍(IGD)被接纳为“因成瘾行为导致的障碍”以来,相关研究呈指数级增长。本综述重点关注 IGD 的概念化、诊断和评估、相关因素以及现有的预防和治疗计划以应对它。
两个主要诊断实体提出的 IGD 诊断标准之间存在差异,以及对其临床有效性的质疑,这引发了针对 IGD 的诊断和心理计量评估的多项建议。同样,也有许多预防这种病理学的建议,涉及政府、游戏行业和医疗机构。最后,提出了多种治疗方案,包括药物和心理治疗,尽管仅测试了认知行为疗法的疗效。因此,通过解决当前文献的核心局限性,深入研究这种障碍是至关重要的。
