Behavioral Addictions: Neurobiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment
Received Date: Oct 01, 2025 / Published Date: Oct 29, 2025
Abstract
This collection of studies investigates behavioral addictions, examining their neurobiological basis, diagnostic challenges, and
cognitive aspects. Research highlights shared neural mechanisms with substance use disorders, the complexities of diagnostic crite
ria, and the impact of cognitive deficits like impulsivity. Specific digital addictions such as internet gaming disorder and problematic
social media use are explored for their prevalence, risk factors, and mental health consequences. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
(CBT) is presented as a key treatment approach. The influence of genetic and environmental factors, neurobiological underpin
nings of pathological gambling, and the link between sleep disturbances and addiction are also discussed, emphasizing the need for
comprehensive and tailored interventions.
