Özet

Objective: We aimed to investigate the relationship between childhood trauma, dissociative experiences, and internet gaming disorder in male university students with probable attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder determined by both childhood and current attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms. Materials and Methods: Volunteers were 376 university students who completed a test battery that included a sociodemographic form as well as the Adult ADHD Severity Rating Scale, Wender Utah Rating Scale, Childhood Trauma Questionnaire, Dissociative Experiences Scale, Somatoform Dissociation Questionnaire, and Internet Gaming Disorder Scale-Short Form. Volunteers were divided into 2 groups as with and without probable attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder D based on both childhood and current attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms. Results: Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (t = -3.94; P < .01), Dissociative Experiences Scale (t = -5.97; P < .01), Somatoform Dissociation Questionnaire (t=-3.80; P < .01), and Internet Gaming Disorder Scale-Short Form (t = -5.21; P < .01) scores were significantly higher in the group with probable attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder than in those without. Two different hierarchical regression analysis models in which internet gaming disorder scores were dependent variables showed that dissociative experiences in first model (beta=0.15, t =2.28, P = .023) and dissociative absorption in second model (beta=0.22, t =2.76, P = .006) were associated with internet gaming disorder after controlling for childhood trauma and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms. Conclusion: Dissociative absorption may contribute to internet gaming disorder independent of childhood trauma and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms, however further studies are needed to investigate this claim.
