          Abstract

          Resumen En 1998 K. Young publicó Internet addiction: the emergence of a new disorder, considerada como la primera investigación en este campo, la adicción a Internet, un tipo de adicción categorizada como “adicción conductual”, no química (Marks, 1990), o como “adicción tecnológica” que implica la interacción hombre-máquina (Griffiths, 1995). La American Psychiatric Association (APA) sólo ha incluido el Trastorno de juego por internet (Internet Gaming Disorder, IGD) en el apéndice del DSM-5 como un trastorno que requiere más investigación antes de ser incluido en el manual principal. Pero, como señalan Daria Kuss y Olatz Lopez-Fernandez (2016), limitar el campo exclusivamente a IGD descarta muchos casos de personas que experimentan consecuencias negativas e importantes dificultades en su vida debidas a adicciones relacionadas con el uso de internet: varios tipos específicos de adicción que estarían dentro del término general. Sus características, los instrumentos de su diagnóstico, su comorbilidad y su tratamiento son los objetivos de los manuscritos que se publican en este número. Olatz Lopez-Fernandez, de Monash University (Australia), ha realizado las tareas de edición de este número monográfico.

          Translated abstract

          Abstract In 1998, K. Young published Internet addiction: the emergence of a new disorder, which was considered to be the first study in this field. Internet addiction has been categorized as “behavioral addiction” (Marks, 1990), rather than chemical addiction, or as “technological addiction”, implying human-machine interaction (Griffiths, 1995). The American Psychiatric Association (APA) has only included Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD) in the appendix of the DSM-5 as a condition that requires further research before being included in the main text. However, as Daria Kuss and Olatz Lopez-Fernandez (2016) suggested, limiting this field exclusively to IGD overlooks large numbers of people who experience negative consequences and significant difficulties in their lives due to addictions associated with the use of the Internet. Several specific types of addiction that would fall within the general term. The topics of the papers published in this issue include the characteristics of internet addiction, diagnostic instruments, comorbidities, and treatment. Olatz Lopez-Fernandez (Monash University, Australia) will assume the role of editor of this monographic issue.
