Development Trajectory

Background: Studies have shown that many Internet game players may have experienced Internet gaming disorder (IGD), which is thought to coexist with a variety of cognitive and psychological disorders, such as depression. A three-year, four-point longitudinal tracking study was conducted to examine the trajectory of IGD of Chinese early adolescents, as well as the predictive level of gender and depression for IGD. Participants (N = 316) completed questionnaires assessing IGD and depression at the time of the T1, T2, T3, and T4. This study adopted the widely used latent growth model for data analysis. The results showed that, in the early stage of adolescence, (1) the development trajectory of individual IGD was shown as a nonlinear latent variable growth model; the IGD was significantly higher than zero when teenagers were first measured (sixth grade); and, while on the rise, its growth rate is gradually slowing. (2) Gender can significantly predict the development trajectory of individual IGD. (3) Individuals with a high initial level of depression usually have a high initial level of IGD, individuals with a large range of depression display a large range of IGD, and those with a rapid rate of depression change show similar change in their IGD. In sum, this study provided an empirical basis for the prevention and intervention of IGD in early adolescents.

Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) has been included in the DSM-5 as a diagnosis for further study, and Gaming Disorder as a new diagnosis in the ICD-11. Nonetheless, little is known about the clinical prevalence of IGD in children and adolescents. Additionally, it is unclear if patients with IGD are already identified in routine psychotherapy, using the ICD-10 diagnosis F 63.8 (recommended classification of IGD in ICD-10). This study investigated N = 358 children and adolescents (self and parental rating) of an outpatient psychotherapy centre in Germany using the Video Game Dependency Scale. According to self-report 4.0% of the 11- to 17-year-old patients met criteria for a tentative IGD diagnosis and 14.0% according to the parental report. Of the 5- to 10-year-old patients, 4.1% were diagnosed with tentative IGD according to parental report. Patients meeting IGD criteria were most frequently diagnosed with hyperkinetic disorders, followed by anxiety disorders, F 63.8, conduct disorders, mood disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorders (descending order) as primary clinical diagnoses. Consequently, this study indicates that a significant amount of the clinical population presents IGD. Meaning, appropriate diagnostics should be included in routine psychological diagnostics in order to avoid “hidden” cases of IGD in the future.
