Abstract

Psychopathology is associated with the development of gaming disorder among adolescents, according to a cohort study of young adolescents. In particular, depression, anxiety, social problems, and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Addressing these underlying issues may reduce the severity incidence of gaming disorder, the researchers concluded, noting that psychopathology seemed to come first.
