“…Al mismo tiempo pueden alcanzar niveles patológicos (Bouna et al, 2015) y, a veces, los individuos no se dan cuenta de las consecuencias graves que esto tiene para ellos mismos (Wang et al, 2019). Asimismo, muestran una disminución del control ejecutivo (Liu et al, 2018), así como del cognitivo, (Liu et al, 2018;Wang et al, 2018) y una mayor susceptibilidad a las señales del juego (Wang et al, 2018) mientras pasan el tiempo con juegos de diversa índole en Internet.…”

El objetivo de este estudio es conocer el nivel de trastorno del juego en estudiantes desde secundaria obligatoria hasta universitarios a partir de la variable género. La metodología de investigación ha sido cuantitativa de corte descriptivo y correlacional, haciendo uso de un diseño no experimental del paradigma transeccional. El instrumento usado es el cuestionario de Internet Gaming Disorder-20 (IGC-20). Los resultados muestran que los hombres y los menores de 24 años son los que presentan mayores valores de adicción al juego.

“…To date, research on prevention has tended to focus on school-based prevention programs. Much of the work in this area has been conducted in Asian settings (28,29), including South Korea and China, where there have been parallel developments in trialling targeted technology-restriction measures including content lters and gaming time limits aimed particularly at younger users (30)(31)(32)(33). In terms of treatment, the most common approach has been cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), usually delivered in brief individual and group-based formats, and other non-CBT psychotherapeutic interventions (24-26, 34, 35).…”

Background Problematic gaming, including its most serious form known as gaming disorder (GD) in the ICD-11, affects approximately 1-3% of the population and can have significant negative impacts on health and wellbeing. Research to determine the optimal health system responses to GD remains limited. This study aimed to identify and describe the key components of a patient-centred approach to prevention, early intervention, and treatment of GD. Methods Online interviews were conducted with 20 adults (90% male; Mage=23y) currently seeking help for GD. The interview protocol was guided by a health care access framework which investigated participants’ experiences and needs related to accessing professional support. Transcripts were analysed in NVivo using qualitative content analysis to systematically classify participant data into the themes informed by this framework. Results Although the characteristics and resultant harms of GD were broadly recognised, participants indicated that these issues may not always be viewed by healthcare providers as a serious problem that requires intervention or that could be addressed through treatment. This highlights a significant barrier to access at the beginning of the patient journey when patients may perceive that they have a legitimate need for care and seek a relevant, tailored, and safe service to meet this need. Participants described the essential components of an effective health service for GD as including: valid and reliable screening tools for GD; practitioners with specialist knowledge of GD that includes, or is strongly informed by, lived experience of peers; and access to a multimodal system of intervention, including self-help, internet and face-to-face options that allow gamers to transition between types and intensity of support. Conclusion A comprehensive health care approach for gaming disorder is currently in its infancy and there are numerous service access and delivery issues still to be resolved. This study highlights the importance of involving individuals with GD in developing solutions that are fit for purpose and address the spectrum of intervention needs. These findings recommend a stepped GD healthcare system that adheres to evidence-based practice tailored to each individual and the implementation of standard assessment and routine outcome monitoring.
