Abstract

Introduction

The primary difficulty and challenge encountered by individuals with Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) is inhibitory control deficit. Given that different types of inhibitory control have different effects on IGD patients, it is critical to investigate the neurological cognitive processes underlying various inhibitory control problems.

Methods

The IGD-20 questionnaire was used to identify Internet game disorder and healthy control group, and finally Internet game disorder in (n=25) and healthy control group (n=28) in Flanker task, Internet game disorder (n=29) and health control group (n=24) in GO/NOGO task. The Flanker task was employed to investigate distractor interference inhibition control in those with IGD, while the Go/NoGo task was used to measure their prepotent response inhibitory control. Event-related potentials (ERPs) were used to evaluate the brain mechanisms difference of both IGD and healthy participants during these different inhibitory control tasks.

Results

Findings indicate that compared to healthy control subjects, individuals with Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) have deficits in inhibitory control tasks during both distraction inhibition and prepotent response inhibition tasks, and distraction inhibition occurs earlier than prepotent response inhibition. In distraction inhibition tasks, the IGD group's N2 amplitude is significantly lower than the healthy control groups. In prepotent response inhibition, the N2 amplitude provoked in the IGD group is not only significantly lower than in the healthy control group, but the P3 amplitude is also significantly larger in the IGD group. The main brain activity areas of interference inhibitory control are the frontal lobe and prefrontal lobe, while the main brain activity areas of prepotent response inhibitory control are the frontal lobe and occipital lobe.

Conclusion

The present study concentrates on the differential neurophysiological characteristics observed in individuals with Internet gaming problems, notably the ability to avoid distractions and prepotent reactions. The current research provides foundations for the assessment and development of tailored therapy and treatment methods to address the wide variety of cognitive problems reported in individuals with Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD).

网络游戏障碍的抑制控制缺陷：事件相关电位（ERPs）研究》。

简介网络游戏障碍（IGD）患者遇到的主要困难和挑战是抑制控制能力不足。鉴于不同类型的抑制控制对 IGD 患者的影响不同，研究各种抑制控制问题背后的神经认知过程至关重要：方法：采用 IGD-20 问卷对网络游戏障碍组和健康对照组进行识别，最终在 Flanker 任务中识别出网络游戏障碍组（n=25）和健康对照组（n=28），在 GO/NOGO 任务中识别出网络游戏障碍组（n=29）和健康对照组（n=24）。Flanker任务用于研究IGD患者的分心干扰抑制控制能力，而Go/NoGo任务则用于测量他们的前摄反应抑制控制能力。事件相关电位（ERPs）用于评估 IGD 患者和健康参与者在这些不同的抑制控制任务中大脑机制的差异：研究结果表明，与健康对照组相比，网络游戏障碍（IGD）患者在分心抑制和前能动反应抑制任务中的抑制控制任务中均存在缺陷，且分心抑制发生的时间早于前能动反应抑制。在分心抑制任务中，IGD 组的 N2 振幅明显低于健康对照组。在前能动反应抑制中，IGD 组激起的 N2 振幅不仅明显低于健康对照组，而且 IGD 组的 P3 振幅也明显大于健康对照组。干扰抑制控制的主要脑活动区是额叶和前额叶，而前能动反应抑制控制的主要脑活动区是额叶和枕叶：本研究集中探讨了在网络游戏问题患者身上观察到的不同神经生理学特征，尤其是避免分心的能力和前摄反应。目前的研究为评估和开发有针对性的疗法和治疗方法奠定了基础，以解决网络游戏障碍（IGD）患者的各种认知问题。

期刊介绍： Behavioural Brain Research is an international, interdisciplinary journal dedicated to the publication of articles in the field of behavioural neuroscience, broadly defined. Contributions from the entire range of disciplines that comprise the neurosciences, behavioural sciences or cognitive sciences are appropriate, as long as the goal is to delineate the neural mechanisms underlying behaviour. Thus, studies may range from neurophysiological, neuroanatomical, neurochemical or neuropharmacological analysis of brain-behaviour relations, including the use of molecular genetic or behavioural genetic approaches, to studies that involve the use of brain imaging techniques, to neuroethological studies. Reports of original research, of major methodological advances, or of novel conceptual approaches are all encouraged. The journal will also consider critical reviews on selected topics.
