This study explored the effects of neurofeedback on electroencephalogram, impulsivity, sensation seeking, game addiction symptoms and game craving of university students with game addiction symptoms. Twelve university students participated in this study, six were assigned to the experimental group, and the rest were assigned to the control group. The experiment group received 20 sessions of neurofeedback, but the control group received any treatment. The neurofeedback group showed more significant improvement in EEG, game addiction symptom severity and impulsivity than control group, and the improvements were maintained at follow up.

The aim of this study was to compare the factors influencing internet game addiction among middle and high school boys. The data was analysed from "Survey on the Online and Game and Family Leisure Activities of Youth and Children in 2009" conducted by the Korean Youth Policy Institute. According to the results, the average time on the weekends and average time on the holidays, and the leisure constraints had a significant effect on the internet game addiction both groups. On the other hand, there were significant differences in the communication with parents between middle and high school boys. Accordingly, this study suggests a preventive internet game addiction program be developed. In addition, it is important to improve efficient communication skills between children and parents.

인터넷 이용률이 급속하게 증가하면서 사회적 문제로 중독증이나 사이버 범죄와 같은 점보화의 역기능이 사회전반에 걸쳐 확산되었다. 특히 청소년들의 인터넷 중독이 심각한 사회적 문제로 대두됨에 따라 도시지역 청소년에 대한 인터넷 중독관련 연구는 다양하게 이루어지고 있으나, 농어촌 청소년에 대한 연구는 거의 없는 상태이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 영광지역의 고등학생 400명을 대상으로 인터넷 이용실태에 대한 설문조사와 김현수(2000)가 번안한 Young의 인터넷 중독 검사지를 이용하여 인터넷 중독 설문조사를 하였다. 연구결과 평균사용자는 44.2%, 초기 중독사용자 53.16%, 심각한 중독사용자 2.7%로 나타났으며, 학년별 초기 인터넷 중독 성향을 보면 1학년 52.9%, 2학년 66.3%, 3학년 50%의 비율을 보이고 있고, 인터넷을 이용한 모든 활동을 보면 온라인게임, 정보검색, mp3파일 다운로드, 동호회 활동등의 순으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 초기 중독자와 심각한 중독을 합하여 중독경향 군으로 통합하였다. 따라서 55.8%에 해당하는 학생이 인터넷 중독에 빠질 수 있는 가능성이 있다고 볼 수 있다. 이러한 상황임에도 학교현장에서는 전혀 인터넷 중독에 대한 교육이 이루어지지 않고 있어, 이들에 대한 지속적인 교육이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

인터넷 중독이란 인터넷의 게임, 음란물, 커뮤니티, 쇼핑 등을 무절제하게 과다하게 사용하므로 자율적인 통제가 불가능한 증세를 의미하며 최근 성인은 물론이고 청소년 계층의 인터넷 중독 인구가 증가되고 있다. 기존 인터넷 진단 도구는 설문조사를 이용한 것으로 설문 응답자의 주관적 판단이나 고의적인 거짓 등으로 응답오차가 생기며, 이로 인한 진단 결과 및 분석 결과의 신뢰성이 낮다. 본 연구에서는 사용자의 인터넷 사용 데이터를 바탕으로 인터넷 중독을 진단하는 데이터 마이닝을 이용한 인터넷 중독 진단기법을 개발하고, 시뮬레이션 데이터를 이용하여 성능평가를 수행하였다. 성능평가 결과 인터넷 중독 분류 및 중독 점수 예측 모두 MLP를 이용한 경우가 우수한 성능을 보였다.

The study proposed new approach for the developing a game addiction treatment program using digital storytelling. We chose 5 types of multimedia elements as educational contents for digital storytelling learning and prepared the teaching strategy for game addiction treatment. We applied the proposed program to 5 students who were included the high risk-user group of game addiction. We also conducted the game addiction tendency test, game usage time test, interview and the effectiveness test of proposed program. As a result of tests, the proposed program showed a positive effect that reduced the game addiction tendency. In the effectiveness test of proposed program, we found the result that 5 experimenters were improved the immersions, challenges, and social interaction, sense of accomplishment in digital storytelling program. We expect that this study will provide positive role and new education strategy for game addiction treatment.

This study examined internet game addiction and college adaptation(academic, social, personal-emotional, institutional attachment) by Internet game motivation types. The 475 subjects (235 male and 240 female college students) responded to the newly developed self-report measure, Internet Game Motivation Scale (IGMS). Cluster analyses of IGMS data identified 5 types of Internet game motivation: Active I, Active II, Moderate I, Moderate II, Passive. Active (I, II) types had the highest scores in Internet game addiction while the Passive type yielded the lowest. Except for academic adaptation, all aspects of college adaptation varied as a function of Internet game motivation types. Overall, Moderate II showed highest whereas Active I showed lowest academic adaptation scores.

This study aims to identify the relationship between ADHD trait and game addiction among high school students, and to examine the double mediating model of hardiness and emotional use of music on that relationship. Participants were 254 male and female high school students. World Health Organization ADHD Self-Report Scale, Short Form of Hardiness Questionnaire, Use of Music Inventory, and Internet Gaming Use-Elicited Symptom Screen were used for this study. PROCESS Macro 3.5 Model 6 was used to analyse a double mediating effect. Results revealed that ADHD trait was negatively correlated with hardiness of high school students, and positively correlated with emotional use of music and game addiction. And, hardiness of high school students was positively correlated with emotional use of music and negatively correlated with game addiction, whereas emotional use of music was negatively correlated with game addiction. It was found that hardiness and emotional use of music were sequentially mediating ADHD trait and game addiction among high school students. These findings suggest that hardiness and emotional use of music play some special roles in the path in which adolescents' ADHD trait affects game addiction.

Computer game addiction generally signifies excessive or unhealthy inclination for computer games. Game addicts spend great amount of their time engrossed in playing games while neglecting the real world. They have the tendency to neglect important responsibilities and isolate themselves from others. Instead, they place greater importance on their status, performance, and achievement in games. Virtual stores, virtual libraries, virtual cinema, virtual trade shows, virtual schools, virtual characters have been emerging due to the popularity of the internet. An ambiguous term virtual reality has appeared in addition to the word virtual. There also appeared alien and UFO syndrome. Such social phenomenon has brought about confusion of reality and virtual world in which things that do not exist are mistakenly believed to exist. This study focuses on virtual reality games and provides an assessment of the causes and the side effects of game addiction and proposes countermeasures.

본 연구는 청소년의 인터넷 중독에 대한 문제를 이해하기 위한 새로운 접근방법을 소개하고 있다. 기존 연구의 대부분은 인터넷과 온라인 게임 자체에 집중하여 청소년의 행동을 조절하기 위한 제도적, 기술적 방법을 소개하였다. 이러한 접근방법은 본질적인 청소년 사이버 문화에 대한 이해가 결여되어 단기적인 성과는 거둘 수 있지만 장기적이고 거시적인 관점에서 문제를 해소하기에는 제한적이다. 본 연구에서는 청소년의 정체성 성립과정과 자극과 반응 모델, 관계질서 모델 등을 통하여 본질적인 인터넷 중독 해소를 위한 접근방법을 제안하고자 한다. 본 연구의 결과물은 향후 지속될 실증적 연구에 토대가 될 것이며 청소년의 인터넷 중독 예방 활동을 위한 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
