STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL ABNORMALITY IN PARTICULAR BRAIN REGIONS AND CONNECTIONS IN SUBJECTS WITH INTERNET GAMING DISORDER (IGD)
DONNA LAUDAN, ELVIRA NICA, GEORGE LAZAROIUABSTRACT. The purpose of this article is to gain a deeper understanding of the inherent topological features of brain networks in Internet gaming disorder (IGD), psychological attributes and comorbidities that are related to the advancement and maintenance of IGD, and the behavioral and neural grounds of risk-taking and decision-making in IGD. We are specifically interested in how previous research investigated neurobiological elements associated with IGD, behavioral control difficulties that persons with IGD frequently display, and the impacts of interventions on neural activity in IGD. pp. 195–200
