Three studies provide new insight into the growing problem of gaming disorder, including the condition's genesis, effective treatments, and the need for a greater focus on recovery.
Behavioral therapy"exerts its effect on the behavioral mechanism of GD; for example, by reducing the association between game-related stimuli and the game-player's response to them," the authors suggest.Recovery"traditionally represents the transition from trauma and illness to health," Gavriel-Fried and colleagues note.
The researchers therefore aimed to"map and summarize the state of the art on recovery from GD," defining"recovery" as the"ability to handle conflicting feelings and emotions without external mediation." Most studies did not address the concept of recovery, although all studies did report significant improvements in gaming-related pathology. Typical terminology used to describe changes in participants' GD were"reduction" and/or"decrease" in symptom severity.
"As a person and researcher who believes that words shape the way we perceive things, I think we should use the word 'recovery' rather than 'pathology' much more in research, therapy, and policy," said Gavriel-Fried. "The fact that we have these reviews and studies is good because all of the research adds to the science providing more data about an area we still don't know that much about, where research is still in its infancy," said Greenfield, who was not involved with the present study.
