• Video Game Structural Characteristics: A New Psychological Taxonomy (2009, background): “Griffiths (2008a) has argued that, if the clinical nomenclature can accept pathological gambling, then similar compulsive behaviours should be recognised as “addictive”.”
• Video Game Addiction, Engagement and Symptoms of Stress, Depression and Anxiety: The Mediating Role of Coping (2016, background): “Some researchers argue that the key differentiating feature of video game addiction is that it causes negative consequences (Griffiths 2008).”
