“Why is my teen addicted to video games?”
Our new study in JAMA Network Open shows that psychopathology is a key driver--not an outcome of gaming disorder!
Depression, anxiety, ADHD, and social challenges may underlie gaming disorder.
Treat the root, not just the game. 🎮🧠

Humans tend to reject emotional support from an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot unless that empathy is falsely labelled as being from a human, according to research published in @nathumbehav.nature.com:
