Three Bullet Points – How Article Relates to Gaming
- Behaviors listed in the article are known to overlap (i.e., gaming, gambling, shopping, pornography, social networking).
- Results of study suggested that some underlying factor may have caused individual participants to engage in excessive behaviours including gaming.
- The article suggests that health practitioners apply the findings when treating disordered gaming, that is, examine unmet needs, where PTU Module #1 suggests the three Self-Determination Theory (SDT) domains include 1) competence, 2) autonomy, and 3) relatedness.
Comment Regarding All Class Posts:
- It is very valuable to hear the lived experience of clients and providers as described in the posts.
- An anecdotal report of a real life shopping addiction involved embezzlement. The theft helped to support the shopping addiction. As a result, the case history became very complex.
