An empirical investigation of the externalizing and internalizing pathways to disordered gaming behavior: A longitudinal study across childhood and adolescence

作者：

Highlights：

• Disordered gaming was predicted by early internalizing and externalizing problems.

• A smaller temporal decrease of internalizing problems predicted disordered gaming.

• The interaction of these problems did not predict disordered gaming.

• Developmentally distal risk factors are present for the development of disordered gaming.
