"Contributing Factors to Internet Gaming Disorder in Adolescents" examines the various factors that contribute to the development and maintenance of Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) among adolescents. IGD refers to a problematic and excessive use of online gaming that leads to negative consequences in various areas of an individual's life. The research delves into the psychological, social, and environmental factors that play a role in the onset and perpetuation of IGD in adolescents. Psychological factors include individual characteristics such as impulsivity, low self-esteem, and poor coping skills. Adolescents with underlying mental health issues, such as anxiety or depression, are also more susceptible to developing IGD. Social factors highlight the influence of peer relationships, social support, and social norms surrounding gaming. Adolescents who experience peer pressure to engage in excessive gaming or who have limited social connections outside of the gaming community may be more vulnerable to IGD. Environmental factors encompass family dynamics, parental involvement, and accessibility to gaming devices. Family conflicts, neglect, or permissive parenting styles can contribute to excessive gaming behavior. Additionally, the widespread availability and convenience of internet-connected devices make gaming easily accessible, increasing the risk of developing IGD. Understanding these contributing factors is crucial for designing effective prevention and intervention strategies. By addressing psychological vulnerabilities, promoting healthy coping mechanisms, fostering positive peer relationships, encouraging balanced parental involvement, and implementing responsible gaming policies, it is possible to mitigate the risk of IGD among adolescents. "Contributing Factors to Internet Gaming Disorder in Adolescents" provides valuable insights for researchers, clinicians, parents, and educators interested in comprehending the complex interplay of factors leading to IGD. By identifying and addressing these factors, it becomes possible to develop targeted interventions and support systems to help adolescents maintain a healthy relationship with gaming and prevent the negative consequences associated with IGD.
