Summary

This study tested a 4-week school program to help teens aged 10-14 who were at high risk for digital game addiction. The program taught self-control, goal setting, and time management through classroom sessions. Researchers compared 110 students from two schools—one group got the program, the other did not—to see if it reduced gaming addiction and sleep problems.

What this could lead to
If successful, this program could offer schools a simple, low-cost way to help teens cut down on excessive gaming and improve their sleep.
