Influence of unrestrained access to erotica on adolescents’ and young adults’ dispositions toward sexuality (2000)

Journal of Adolescent Health August 2000 Volume 27, Issue 2, Supplement 1, Pages 41–44 Dolf Zillmann Accepted: April 24, 2000; DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S1054-139X(00)00137-3 Abstract Because consensually accepted programs of sexual education are lacking, erotica have come to serve as the primary agent of sexual socialization. The new media technology gives prepubertal children and postpubertal adolescents ready access […]

Versatility and addiction in gaming: the number of video-game genres played is associated with pathological gaming in male adolescents (2015)

Cyberpsychol Behav Soc Netw. 2015 Feb;18(2):129-32. doi: 10.1089/cyber.2014.0342. Donati MA1, Chiesi F, Ammannato G, Primi C. Abstract This study tested the predictive power of gaming versatility (i.e., the number of video game genres engaged in) on game addiction in male adolescents, controlling for time spent on gaming. Participants were 701 male adolescents attending high school […]

Blunted feedback processing during risk-taking in adolescents with features of problematic Internet use (2015)

Addict Behav. 2015 Jan 20;45C:156-163. doi: 10.1016/j.addbeh.2015.01.008. Yau YH1, Potenza MN2, Mayes LC3, Crowley MJ4. Abstract While the conceptualization of problematic Internet use (PIU) as a “behavioral addiction” resembling substance-use disorders is debated, the neurobiological underpinnings of PIU remain understudied. This study examined whether adolescents displaying features of PIU (at-risk PIU; ARPIU) are more impulsive […]
