We conducted: (1) four item response theory (IRT) analyses and reliability assessments for the items of each of the four ICD\u201011 criteria for gaming disorder based using the 25 items (inclusive of the eight GADIT items); (2) a multi\u2010group confirmatory factor analysis across countries using the 8 GADIT items (2 from each ICD criterion, same selection across all countries); (3) six separate IRT analyses for each of the five countries and one analysis for all countries combined using the 8 GADIT items; and (4) validity tests of the association between GADIT and measures with an expected correlation with it, including the Internet Gaming Disorder Test (IGDT\u201010 total score), depression score (Patient Health Questionnaire\u20102), anxiety score (GAD\u20102), gaming intensity (high\/low) and gaming\u2010related financial problems (yes\/no).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Items measuring the four gaming disorder criteria had good internal consistency (\u03b1\u2009\u2265\u20090.85).
