Adicción a los videojuegos, calidad de sueño y malestar psicológico en adolescentes y jóvenes adultos González Caino, Pablo Christian Resett, Santiago Addiction videogames distress sleep adicción videojuegos malestar sueño jóvenes The present research took levels of video game addiction and tested a model of structural structures to determine whether videogame addiction predicted sleep quality and psychological distress. A sample of 612 young male adults was constituted, with a mean age of 21 years (SD = 2.95) of residents of Greater Buenos Aires and 40% in the Federal Capital. They answered a demographic questionnaire, the GASA questionnaire, a sleep questionnaire and the DASS-21 that measures anxiety, depression, and stress. The results indicated high levels of video game addiction and that age introduced differences. The structural model presented a good fit and addiction predicted greater sleep difficulties and less psychological well-being. The discussion will review the implications of this research and provide suggestions for future research. La presente investigación tuvo como propósito examinar los niveles de adicción a video juegos y poner a prueba un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales para determinar si la adicción a ellos predecía los niveles de sueño y malestar psicológico. Se constituyó una muestra de 612 jóvenes adultos de género masculino, con una media de 21 años (DE = 2.95). Contestaron un cuestionario demográfico, el cuestionario GASA, el cuestionario de sueño y el DASS-21. Los resultados indicaron niveles altos de adicción a video juegos, la edad introducía diferencia debido a niveles más altos en el grupo adolescente en comparación con el de jóvenes adultos. El modelo estructural presentó un ajuste adecuado y la adicción predecía mayores dificultades de sueño y un menor bienestar psicológico; también la calidad de sueño era un predictor significativo del malestar. En la discusión se analizan las implicancias de estos hallazgos y se brindan sugerencias para futuras investigaciones.
