Currently, six instruments have been developed using the 11th revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) criteria for Gaming Disorder (GD). Two of these are the Gaming Disorder Test (GDT) and Gaming Disorder Scale for Adolescents (GADIS-A). The present study validated both the GDT and GADIS-A among a large sample of Chinese emerging adults. Via an online survey, 3381 participants (56.6% females; mean age = 19.56 years) completed the Chinese versions of the GDT, GADIS-A, Internet Gaming Disorder-Short Form (IGDS9-SF), and Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale (BSMAS). Confirmatory factor analysis was used to examine the factor structure of the Chinese GDT and GADIS-A. Pearson correlations were computed to examine the convergent validity (with IGDS9-SF) and divergent validity (with BSMAS) of the Chinese GDT and Chinese GADIS-A. The GDT had a unidimensional structure, which was invariant across sex and disordered gaming severity subgroups. The GADIS-A had a two-factor structure, which was also invariant across gender and gaming severity subgroups. Both the GDT and GADIS-A had significant associations with both IGDS9-SF and with BSMAS. Both the Chinese GDT and GADIS-A are valid instruments to assess GD among emerging adults in mainland China, enabling healthcare providers to adopt these tools in their efforts to prevent and examine GD severity among Chinese youth.
目前，已有六种工具是根据《国际疾病分类》第 11 版（ICD-11）对游戏障碍（GD）的标准开发的。其中两种是游戏障碍测试（GDT）和青少年游戏障碍量表（GADIS-A）。本研究在大量中国新兴成年人样本中验证了 GDT 和 GADIS-A 的有效性。通过在线调查，3381 名参与者（56.6%为女性；平均年龄=19.56 岁）完成了 GDT、GADIS-A、网络游戏障碍短表（IGDS9-SF）和卑尔根社交媒体成瘾量表（BSMAS）的中文版本。验证性因素分析用于检验中文 GDT 和 GADIS-A 的因子结构。计算 Pearson 相关系数以检验中文 GDT 和 GADIS-A 的收敛效度（与 IGDS9-SF）和区别效度（与 BSMAS）。GDT 具有单维结构，在性别和障碍性游戏严重程度亚组之间不变。GADIS-A 具有两因素结构，在性别和游戏严重程度亚组之间也不变。GDT 和 GADIS-A 均与 IGDS9-SF 和 BSMAS 显著相关。中文 GDT 和 GADIS-A 都是评估中国大陆新兴成年人 GD 的有效工具，使医疗保健提供者能够在预防和检查中国青年 GD 严重程度方面采用这些工具。
