“…(2013) introduced a pilot version of a school intervention aimed at promoting health (healthy nutrition, physical exercise, sexual health, reducing alcohol and drug use, smoking, bullying behaviors, excessive sedentary behavior – watching television and computer use – and excessive Internet use, including online gaming) in primary schools in the Netherlands. Data were collected from 336 students aged 15–16 years, who were divided into experimental and control groups.…”

“…Majority of studies (Busch et al., 2013; Korkmaz & Kiran-Esen, 2012; de Leeuw et al., 2010; Walther et al., 2014) were carried out in Europe (the Netherlands, Germany, and Turkey), only one in the USA (Turel et al., 2015). Majority of studies (Busch et al., 2013; Korkmaz & Kiran-Esen, 2012; de Leeuw et al., 2010; Walther et al., 2014) were focused on the change of Internet addiction behavior among secondary school students 11- to 16-year-olds and only one (Turel et al., 2015) targeted on university students aged 18–49 years.

“…Six of them (Table 1) described and/or evaluated specific prevention interventions (Busch, de Leeuw, & Schrijvers, 2013; de Leeuw, de Bruijn, de Weert-van Oene, & Schrijvers, 2010; Korkmaz & Kiran-Esen, 2012; Shek, Ma, & Sun, 2011; Turel, Mouttapa, & Donato, 2015; Walther, Hanewinkel, & Morgenstern, 2014). For the purpose of the study, were extracted data relevant to these areas: (a) country in which were data collected, (b) key characteristics of the participants (sample size and segment of the population assessed), (c) intervention characteristic, (d) risk of bias in individual studies, and (e) methodological features (objectives, assessment methods, type of study, and design).…”

Background and aimsOut of a large number of studies on Internet addiction, only a few have been published on the prevention of Internet addiction. The aim of this study is provide a systematic review of scientific articles regarding the prevention of Internet addiction and to identify the relevant topics published in this area of interest.MethodsThe Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines were adopted. The EBSCO, ProQuest Central, and PubMed databases were searched for texts published in English and Spanish between January 1995 and April 2016. A total of 179 original texts were obtained. After de-duplication and topic-relevance review, 108 texts were systematically classified and subjected to descriptive analysis and subsequent content analysis.ResultsThe results of the content analysis yielded the following thematic areas: (a) target groups, (b) the improvement of specific skills, (c) program characteristics, and (d) environmental interventions.Discussion and conclusion Literature on the prevention of Internet addiction is scarce. There is an urgent need to introduce and implement new interventions for different at-risk populations, conduct well-designed research, and publish data on the effectiveness of these interventions. Developing prevention interventions should primarily target children and adolescents at risk of Internet addiction but also parents, teachers, peers, and others who are part of the formative environment of children and adolescents at risk of Internet addiction. Newly designed interventions focused on Internet addiction should be rigorously evaluated and the results published.

“…For instance, there were articles referring to electronic games, (e.g., serious games or educational games) as an effective method against sedentary behaviours (e.g., Banos, Cebolla, Oliver, Alcaniz, & Botella, 2013) or articles that focused on promotion of health behaviours whose final results showed findings that were not actually related to electronic games (e.g., Busch, De Leeuw, & Schrijvers, 2013;Stroebele, McNally, Plog, Siegfried, & Hill, 2013); those articles were not included in this review.…”

This article sets out to conduct a systematic review of the current literature on active video games as potential educational tools for physical education or physical activity. To begin with, research on active video games for educational and physical purposes has been examined with the purpose of verifying improvement of attitudes, intellectual skills, knowledge, motor skills and physical properties associated with physical activity and physical education. A second aim will be to determine the effectiveness of active video games compared with traditional approaches to physical activity. From this perspective, a systematic literature search from relevant international databases was conducted from January to July 2015 in order to find papers published in journals or conference proceedings from January 2010 onwards. Then, 2648 references were identified in database searches and 100 of these papers met the inclusion criteria. Two main conclusions are to be drawn from this research. Firstly, controlled studies demonstrate that active video games increase capacities in relation to physical activity and education. Secondly, Research also shows that physical activity interventions designed and measured using behavioural theories are more likely to be successful in comparison with traditional exercise activities.

“…UHS was rolled out from 2007 to 2010, and outcome assessment consisted of comparisons from two cohorts of students reporting in 2007 and 2010. Results showed improvements in many of the target behaviors, including increased physical activity and lower rates of bullying and victimization (Busch et al, 2012). …”

Marks presents “homeostatic theory” which proposes that weight gain is fostered by a “Circle of Discontent” consisting of body dissatisfaction, negative affect, and overconsumption. This innovative framework offers potential intervention approaches, including victim-blaming, stigma, and discrimination, as well as devalorizing the thin-ideal. Our article discusses possible ways that clinical health psychologists based in university settings may be uniquely positioned to consider and implement large-scale programs that have shown great promise for addressing these core issues.
