Video games have a strong influence on children and adolescents. Video game addiction has negative effects on children\u2019s health.Objective. To determine the relationship between video game addiction and bladder\/bowel dysfunction in children.Materials and methods. Three hundred sixty-three children and their mothers who met the inclusion criteria constituted the sample of this correlational study. The data were collected using a descriptive information form, the Video Game Addiction Scale for Children, and the Childhood Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Questionnaire.Results. We found that 72.5% of the children were nine years old and 27.5% were ten years old; 50.4% were males and 49.6% were female. While 4.7% of the children whoparticipated in the study were underweight, 19.6% were overweight, and 17.9% were obese. The mean Video Game Addiction Scale for Children score was 50.77 \u00b1 16.17,whereas the mean Childhood Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Questionnaire score was 29.98 \u00b1 8.90. The ratio of children with a mean Video Game Addiction Scale for Children scores equal to or greater than 90 was 0.8% (n = 3). We found that 3.6% (n = 13) of the children had urinary\/fecal incontinence while playing video games. There was a weak positive relationship between the dimensions of the Video Game Addiction Scale for Children scores, the Childhood Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Questionnaire scores, and children\u2019s bladder and bowel function (r = 0.220; p \u02c2 0.05).Conclusions. There is a correlation between children\u2019s video game addiction level and their bladder and bowel dysfunction grade. Higher video game addiction levels correspond to higher bladder and bowel dysfunction.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.7705\/biomedica.7018","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,5]],"date-time":"2024-09-05T12:55:07Z","timestamp":1725540907000},"page":"368-378","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.7705\/crossmark","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["The Relationship between video game addiction and bladder\/bowel dysfunction in children","Relaci\u00f3n entre la adicci\u00f3n a los videojuegos y la disfunci\u00f3n vesical o intestinal en ni\u00f1os"],"prefix":"10.7705","volume":"44","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8788-3077","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"\u00d6znur","family":"Tiryaki","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Midwifery, Faculty of Health Sciences, Sakarya University, Sakarya, Turkey"},{"name":"Department of Midwifery, Faculty of Health Sciences, Sakarya University, Sakarya, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0176-8778","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dilek","family":"Menek\u015fe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric Nursing, Faculty of Health Sciences, Sakarya University, Sakarya, Turkey"},{"name":"Department of Pediatric Nursing, Faculty of Health Sciences, Sakarya University, Sakarya, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3151-9975","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nursan","family":"\u00c7\u0131nar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric Nursing, Faculty of Health Sciences, Sakarya University, Sakarya, Turkey"},{"name":"Department of Pediatric Nursing, Faculty of Health Sciences, Sakarya University, Sakarya, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"4444","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"137826","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Esposito MR, Serra N, Guillari A, Simeone S, Sarracino F, Continisio GI, et al.
