概要 The rise of digital entertainment, particularly video gaming, has brought both economic benefits and challenges, one of which is gaming disorder (GD), a growing concern. Recognized by the World Health... Organization in ICD-11, GD is defined by persistent, compulsive gaming that disrupts personal, social, and occupational functioning. This study explores the application of Identity Theory—a framework rooted in symbolic interactionism—in understanding GD, with a focus on its relevance to esports players. Identity theory highlights the alignment between self-meaning and behaviors, offering insights into how discrepancies between in-game and real-world identities may contribute to excessive gaming. By examining individual, gaming-related, and environmental factors, the study underscores the distinctive role of esports in shaping player identities and the associated risks. This theoretical approach shifts the focus from game genres to identity processes, providing a comprehensive framework for understanding and addressing GD. The findings aim to inform both theoretical development and practical interventions for GD, particularly within the rapidly evolving esports landscape.続きを見る
