Güngör, Sunay
Background: Digital game addiction is a rapidly developing social and mental health concern that is closely related to emotion regulation difficulties. The present study aimed to compare the effectiveness of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), emotion-focused therapy (EFT), and attachment-based therapy (ABT) in improving emotion regulation among adolescents with digital game addiction. Methods: The present study was an interventional study employing a pretest–posttest design and a control group. The sample included 100 adolescents aged 13–18 years who were diagnosed with gaming disorder according to the 11th Revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) criteria. Participants were selected using purposive sampling and were assigned to four groups of 25 individuals each, including three experimental groups and one wait-list control group. The 7-item Digital Game Addiction Scale (DGAS-7) and the Regulation of Emotions Questionnaire among Adolescents (REQ-A) were used to gather data. ACT and EFT were administered in eight sessions, whereas ABT was delivered in 10 sessions. Data were analyzed using repeated measures ANOVA in SPSS. Results: It was found that the three therapeutic strategies produced a significant increase in functional emotion regulation scores (internal and external) and a significant decrease in dysfunctional emotion regulation scores compared to the control group (p < 0.001). However, the effect sizes for the ACT and EFT groups were very large compared to the ABT group. There was no significant difference between ACT and EFT; nevertheless, both interventions were significantly more effective compared to ABT at both the posttest and follow-up stages. Conclusion: ACT and EFT are more effective interventions for improving emotion regulation among adolescents with digital game addiction because of their emphasis on psychological flexibility and emotionally profound processing. Although ABT was found to be moderately effective, it can be used as an adjunctive therapy, particularly in cases involving relational problems.

Background Wrestling is a physically and mentally demanding combat sport that requires discipline, focus, and emotional control. Although its physiological effects are well documented, its psychological benefits in adolescents remain underexplored. This study aimed to examine whether a short-term, non-competitive wrestling program could enhance psychological well-being, reduce sport anxiety, and strengthen resilience in adolescent boys. Methods Thirty sedentary male adolescents (aged 12-15 years) were randomly assigned to a wrestling training group (n = 15) or a control group (n = 15). The intervention consisted of six weeks of supervised wrestling sessions performed three times per week. Psychological well-being (WHO-5), sport anxiety (SAS-2), and resilience (BPRS) were assessed before and after the intervention using the validated Turkish versions of the scales. Two-way repeated-measures ANOVA was used to analyze group & times; time interactions. Results Participants in the wrestling group demonstrated significant improvements in well-being (p < 0.001) and resilience (p < 0.001), alongside marked reductions in total sport anxiety and its subdimensions (p < 0.001), compared with the control group. All effects were large (eta p & sup2; = 0.52-0.94). Conclusion A structured six-week wrestling program produced meaningful psychological benefits in adolescent boys. Regular participation in non-competitive wrestling may serve as an effective approach to promote well-being, emotional stability, and adaptive coping skills during early adolescence, supporting the preventive and developmental role of combat sports in youth mental health.

Eating disorders are a problem that negatively affects physical and psychological development and can potentially be life-threatening. In order to successfully combat this disorder, it is important to have a better understanding of the underlying mechanisms. The aim of this study is to examine the mediating role of impulsivity in the relationship between internet addiction and eating disorders in an adolescent sample. The current research was designed in accordance with the correlational model. The study group was formed by convenience sampling method among students who continue their education in secondary schools and high schools in Trabzon. The data of the study were collected with a demographic information form prepared by the researchers, the Young Internet Addiction Test-Short Form, Rezzy Eating Disorders Scale and Barratt Impulsivity Scale-Short Form. As a result of statistical analysis, it was determined that the average eating disorder score of female students was higher than that of male students. It was found that the eating disorder scores of those whose income was less than their expenses were significantly higher than those whose income was more than their expenses. Positive significant relationships have been identified between internet addiction and eating disorders. It has also been determined that impulsive behavior plays a mediating role in the relationship between internet addiction and eating disorders. It is thought that the current findings will contribute to the understanding of the mechanisms underlying eating disorders and the development of effective prevention and intervention strategies.
