“…IGD refers to an individual's uncontrollable, excessive, and compulsive use of online games that causes social and/or emotional problems (62). Young people in Asian countries were found to have higher rates of IGD (63), which varied from 5.4 to 17.7% (64)(65)(66)(67)(68). In China, the prevalence rate of IGD can reach 17.0% (64).…”

Bullying is a severe social problem affecting young people all over the world. Previous studies suggested that engagement in bullying had massive effects on teenagers’ physical and psychological development. It is critical and necessary to investigate the antecedents and underlying mechanisms of this phenomenon among young generations. The present study, based on the positive youth development perspective and the developmental assets theory, attempts to explore the positive factors in the school subsystem that could effectively prevent adolescents from bullying, as well as the multiple mediation effects of intentional self-regulation (ISR) and internet gaming disorder (IGD). In this study, we adopted a two-wave design and recruited a sample of 768 Chinese adolescents using a randomized cluster sampling method in the post-pandemic era. The results revealed that T1 school assets significantly and negatively predicted T2 adolescent bullying. Furthermore, T2 ISR and T2 IGD mediated the association between T1 school assets and T2 bullying separately and sequentially. Overall, school resources play a protective role in adolescent development and could effectively prevent them from negative outcomes. These current findings contribute to the literature by providing a further understanding of the direct and indirect protective effects of school assets on adolescent bullying. Moreover, practitioners could also benefit from these findings in preventing and intervening in bullying in the school subsystem.

“…The fact that gender was related with the risk of developing IGD in this study findings. Gender emerges as a significant and unalterable risk factor, as demonstrated by the findings of these studies in India (Singh et al, 2021), China (Yang et al, 2020), and Thailand (Taechoyotin et al, 2018). Studies have shown that the students who had gaming disorder had more hours of playtime related with gender (Hull, 2022;Jo et al, 2019;Shakya & Sharma, 2017).…”

“…Studies has shown that the overall prevalence of IGD ranged from 0.7%-15.6% worldwide whereas 2 billion people play video games globally (Feng et al, 2017). In Thailand, the prevalence of IGD was 5.4% where half of the participants had a lower GPA score, and more than half had failed an exam due to gaming behavior (Taechoyotin et al, 2018). Other than failing an exam, students tend to doze, awakening amidst the night to score high in the game, experiencing a severe disturbance in terms of sleep, studies, family relations, and physical problems (Sankarasekaran et al, 2019;Yarasani et al, 2018).…”

Internet gaming disorder is characterized by persistent, unchecked gaming to the point where it interferes with other hobbies, everyday activities, and has harmful effects. Internet gaming is more common among younger people. This study aims to investigate the prevalence of risk of developing gaming disorder, and its related risk factors among health science students of Kathmandu, Nepal. A total of 422 public health students from Purbanchal University in Kathmandu filled out a Google form that was distributed by lecturers and representatives via email, Viber, and Messenger between January to March 2021. Data were gathered with administrative approval and individual agreement, and SPSS version 25 was used for analysis. The study indicated that the majority of students (84.8%) had a normal risk of acquiring internet gaming disorder, but a considerable minority (15.2%) were at risk. Although the majority of respondents who played games had appropriate gaming behaviour, a significant percentage of them were in danger. The finding showed a relationship between internet gaming disorder and variables including gender, semester, internet use, game features, game hours, and game money spent. Video games are widespread in current culture, yet a large minority suffers harmful consequences so policymakers are advised to create regulations that promote healthy gaming habits, such as prohibiting minor players and limiting access to online games at particular times.

Objective: This study aims to examine whether social exclusion and parental attitudes predict online gaming addiction in adolescents. Method: The sample consisted of 393 individuals, of which 4.6% (n=18) were females and 95.4% (n=375) were males, which was determined by the purposive sampling method. Socio-demographic Information Form, Online Gaming Addiction Scale (OGAS), Ostracism Experience Scale for Adolescents (OES-A) and Parental Attitudes Scale (PAS) were used to obtain the personal information of the participants in this study. Results: The findings showed that there was a positive and statistically significant correlation between the disruption sub-dimension of the OGAS and the OES disregard, exclusion and overall total at a moderate level and the acceptance/affection and psychological autonomy sub-dimensions of the PAS. There was a moderate statistically significant positive relationship between the achievement sub-dimension of the OGAS and the OES neglect, exclusion and overall total and there was a negative and statistically significant relationship with the acceptance/affection and psychological autonomy sub-dimensions of the PAS. There was a moderate statistically significant negative relationship between the economic gain sub-dimension of the OGAS and the psychological autonomy sub-dimension of the PAS. It was found that social exclusion and the autonomic parental attitude scale were significant predictors of online gaming addiction in adolescents. Conclusion: Social exclusion and autonomous parenting attitudes are effective on online game addiction in adolescents.
