Q If you believe it is appropriate to label the use by some people of video games or the internet as an addiction, why? What criteria should be used to determine a particular person is presenting with this addiction? How might someone explain this addiction using the behavioral perspective, and how and what would this imply about treatment? If you don’t believe this is actually an addiction, why? Aside from a video game or the internet not being an actual “substance,” what criteria for a substance use disorder does this behavior not meet? Is this behavior better explained by some other type of disorder?
