Om denne e-boken

""Digital Addiction Mechanisms"" explores the increasingly relevant issue of digital addiction, specifically focusing on gaming, and its tangible psychological and neurological consequences. This book tackles the neurobiological aspects of digital game addiction, revealing how excessive gaming can alter brain structures linked to reward and impulse control. The book also examines the psychological mechanisms driving these addictive behaviors, such as cognitive distortions. The book uniquely integrates neurobiological and psychological explanations, moving beyond purely behavioral models.

It begins by defining digital addiction and diagnostic criteria, then explores neurological correlates through brain imaging studies, identifying key brain regions like the prefrontal cortex and striatum. Later chapters delve into psychological factors, such as cognitive biases and coping mechanisms, and finally analyzes intervention strategies like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and neurofeedback.

This comprehensive approach is valuable for psychologists, neuroscientists, educators, and medical professionals seeking to understand and address digital addiction. The insights in ""Digital Addiction Mechanisms"" can be applied in clinical, educational, and family settings to promote healthy gaming habits and effective intervention strategies.
