Abstract

Introduction: The present study investigated the electroencephalography (EEG) characteristics of gaming disorder (GD) and examined whether these EEG indices are associated with decision-making style and impulsivity in GD.

Methods: We included 46 participants in the GD group and 92 sex- and age-matched participants in the control group. Between-group differences in the resting-state EEG indices and scores on scales measuring decision-making style and impulsivity were assessed. We further analyzed the correlations between these EEG indices and the scale scores for decision-making style and impulsivity.

Results: The GD group was found not to favor the cognition-based decision-making style and presented with more dysfunctional impulsivity. In addition, the GD group had globally elevated delta and beta activity and elevated theta activity in the central area compared with the control group. Beta activity in the frontal and central area was negatively correlated with the deliberative decision-making style and positively correlated with dysfunctional impulsivity in the GD group.

Conclusion: EEG indices are potential neurophysiological biomarkers for GD. The associations of EEG indices with decision-making style and impulsivity are worth studying to clarify how they might relate to clinical interventions.

游戏障碍的脑电图研究及其与决策风格和冲动性的关系。

前言：本研究探讨了游戏障碍患者的脑电图特征，并探讨了这些脑电图指标是否与游戏障碍患者的决策风格和冲动性有关。方法：我们将46名参与者纳入GD组，92名性别和年龄匹配的参与者作为对照组。评估静息状态脑电图指标和决策风格、冲动性量表得分的组间差异。我们进一步分析了这些EEG指标与决策风格和冲动性量表得分之间的相关性。结果：GD组倾向于认知为基础的决策方式，并表现出更多的功能失调冲动。此外，与对照组相比，GD组的δ和β活动整体升高，中央区域的θ活动升高。GD组前额叶和中央区β活动与慎重决策风格呈负相关，与功能失调冲动性呈正相关。结论：脑电图指标是GD潜在的神经生理生物标志物。脑电图指数与决策风格和冲动性的关联值得研究，以阐明它们与临床干预的关系。

期刊介绍： The biological approach to mental disorders continues to yield innovative findings of clinical importance, particularly if methodologies are combined. This journal collects high quality empirical studies from various experimental and clinical approaches in the fields of Biological Psychiatry, Biological Psychology and Neuropsychology. It features original, clinical and basic research in the fields of neurophysiology and functional imaging, neuropharmacology and neurochemistry, neuroendocrinology and neuroimmunology, genetics and their relationships with normal psychology and psychopathology. In addition, the reader will find studies on animal models of mental disorders and therapeutic interventions, and pharmacoelectroencephalographic studies. Regular reviews report new methodologic approaches, and selected case reports provide hints for future research. ''Neuropsychobiology'' is a complete record of strategies and methodologies employed to study the biological basis of mental functions including their interactions with psychological and social factors.
