Other children are selfish and do not want to share toys. One form of negative social interactions among children that has become a national concern is bullying.
Community Based Intervention01:30

Community Based Intervention

Community-based interventions in mental health represent a paradigm shift from institution-centered care to treatments embedded within the fabric of local communities. By prioritizing inclusion and leveraging existing societal structures, this approach fosters a supportive environment conducive to addressing mental health challenges while promoting individual dignity and agency.

Operant Conditioning Intervention01:24

Operant Conditioning Intervention

Operant conditioning serves as a foundational principle in therapeutic interventions aimed at modifying maladaptive behaviors. Central to this approach is the notion that behaviors, both adaptive and maladaptive, are learned through reinforcement. By analyzing the environmental factors that reinforce problematic behaviors, clinicians can design interventions to weaken these reinforcements and replace maladaptive behaviors with healthier alternatives.
In operant conditioning, behaviors that are...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Psychology
  • Family Studies

Background:

  • Problematic internet use (PIU) in children and adolescents is a significant public health issue.
  • PIU encompasses gaming, social media, and smartphone use, leading to academic, sleep, and psychosocial problems.
  • Family-based preventive interventions for PIU are underexplored despite links between parenting and PIU risk.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review and meta-analyze family-based preventive interventions for problematic internet use in children and adolescents aged 6-18 years.
  • To synthesize current evidence and clarify the role of family-based prevention in addressing PIU.
  • To inform future research and public health strategies related to PIU prevention.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review and meta-analysis protocol.
  • Inclusion of randomized controlled, quasi-randomized, cluster-randomized, and quasi-experimental studies.
  • Searches across major databases (CENTRAL, PubMed, PsycINFO, Web of Science, CiNii Research) with risk-of-bias assessment (RoB 2, ROBINS-I).

Main Results:

  • Primary outcomes: changes in overall and subtype-specific PIU severity.
  • Secondary outcomes: internet use time, family functioning, and parental involvement.
  • Meta-analyses will be conducted where feasible; otherwise, narrative synthesis will be employed.

Conclusions:

  • This review will synthesize evidence on family-based preventive interventions for PIU.
  • Findings will highlight the effectiveness and role of family-centered approaches.
  • The results aim to guide the development of targeted public health interventions and research.
