Summary

The increasing use of the internet makes understanding games among adolescents different by moving it to the virtual environment and increases the digital game addiction risk. Especially among adolescents, digital games have become a popular activity and often a means of socialization. With the widespread use of smartphones, digital gaming has transformed from computer and console-based to a multi-platform activit. In addition, long-term digital games cause symptoms such as anxiety and depression through increased interpersonal loneliness and decreased relationships. This situation has caused recent research to focus on the effects of digital gaming activities on individuals.
