Data: Problematic video game playing

This dataset represents a portion of the data collected for the academic paper titled "Development and Validation of the Problematic Video Game Playing Scale for Adolescents (PVGP-Adolescent)". The core objective of this scale is to validate five critical dimensions related to problematic video game playing among adolescents: daily-life disturbance (DD), interpersonal relationships (IRE), schooling disruption (SD), physical consequences (Phy-C), and psychological consequences (Psy-C).To ensure the reliability and validity of the responses, the scale incorporates a pair of reverse questions and a single lie-detection question (IRE6 and Psy-C5). The data set has been pre-processed, and researchers analyzing the data can directly exclude IRE6 and Psy-C5 during their analysis. While the complete dataset analyzed in the paper comprises 370 valid samples, ethical considerations and other practical constraints have led to the upload of only 250 records. It is important to emphasize that even with this partially complete dataset, researchers can still obtain comparable results and insights into the phenomenon of problematic video game playing among adolescents.
