Abstract

The average video game addiction score of children was 55.22, associated with poor sleep quality and efficiency.

  • Chronotype appears to mediate the connection between video game addiction and sleep quality.
  • There is a potential link between chronotype and sleep efficiency related to video game addiction.
  • Data were collected from 545 secondary school students in northern Turkey.
