摘要
Internet gaming is arguably one of the most popular online activities. Online game play, particularly massive multiplayer online role-playing games, can be pleasurable and rewarding activities. However, a subset of individuals may exhibit problematic patterns of engagement that negatively impact psychosocial wellbeing. Consistent with Internet gaming disorder being included in Section III of the recently released fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, relatively little research has been performed into Internet gaming disorder. This review discusses the epidemiological findings and treatment strategies related to Internet gaming disorder. Diagnostic considerations are discussed, and recommendations are made for future research and clinical efforts.
