Takanobu Matsuzaki
Kurihama Medical and Addiction Center, JapanTitle: On the emerging issue of gaming disorder
Abstract
There is a growing international demand for the treatment of gaming-related problems, especially among adolescents and young adults. As Gaming Disorder is a new disease concept, standard treatment methods have not been established yet. The effectiveness of treatments such as cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) and family therapy has been recognized. In Japan, the National Hospital Organization Kurihama Medical and Addiction Center has established a department for the treatment of internet addiction since July 2011, which provides specialized treatments. The outpatient department provides an assessment of the type and duration of online-gaming, physical and mental health problems, impact on schoolwork and other social life, and problems in family and interpersonal relationships.
