This study made an initial attempt to measure and attribute online game addiction among Chinese college students. We generated three factors of online game addiction: Control Disorder, Conflict, and Injury, and proposed a comprehensive model that attributed online game addiction to three groups of driving forces: environmental factors (most significant), characteristics of online games, and personal reasons.
