简要总结
Using computer for long have been shown to cause vision problems, musculoskeletal pain particularly in neck, postural deviations, obesity and physical inactivity in several studies. The relation between obesity and physical activity, neck pain and postural deviations with altered sensorimotor function has been also shown with many studies. However, there were not enough study that assess sensorimotor congruence such as proprioception and reaction time in adolescents diagnosed with Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD). This study aimed to evaluate the proprioception and reaction time and investigate its relation with the relationship with neck pain, proprioception and reaction time in adolescents with IGD.
详细描述
The aim of this study is to evaluate reaction time, motor dexterity, cervical posture and proprioception and its relationship with Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) in adolescents. It's anticipated that 60 adolescents aged between 10-18 years will be included to this study (30 healthy adolescent; 30 adolescent with IGD. After recording sociodemografic data of participants, age of starting to use the internet, the age of starting to play games on the internet, the time spent on the internet, the name and type of the game played will be questioned. The presence of musculoskeletal pain and its localization, if any, will be recorded. The severity of internet addiction will be assessed with Internet Addiction Scale, motor dexterity will be assessed with The 9 Hole Peg Test, reaction time of upper extremity will be assessed with Ruler Drop Method, the severity of forward head posture will be assessed with Cervical Range of Motion (CROM) device, and lastly, proprioception of cervical region will be assessed with Joint Position Error which will be evaluated CROM device. All parameters will be compared between healthy adolescents and adolescents with IGD.

结局指标
主要结局
Internet Addiction Scale
时间窗: baseline
It is a 20-itemed Likert type scale whose items are grading "Rarely", "Occasionally", "Often", "Most of the time" or "Always" with points of 1,2,3,4,5, respectively. The lowest score that can be obtained from the test is 20 and the highest score is 100. A score of 80 and above is an indicator of significant impairment in functionality and this group was defined as "internet addicted". Scores of "49 points and below" were defined as the "average internet user" who does not have any problems related to internet use in his life.
