Effective interventions for gaming disorder: A systematic review of randomized control trials
Overview
This systematic review analyzes seven randomized controlled trials published by December 2021 to evaluate interventions for gaming disorder. The authors identify group counseling, craving behavioral intervention, ACRIP, and short-term CBT as effective treatments, while noting that tDCS was excluded from the effectiveness findings. The resource highlights medium to high risk of bias in the included studies and suggests improvements in research design and reporting standards for future work.
