Violence exposure in daily life and adolescent internet gaming disorder in the Chinese context: peer victimization and negative emotion as mediators in a three-wave study.
Article in BMC psychology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesInternet gaming disorder (IGD), a growing concern among adolescents globally, remains insufficiently understood regarding the role of violence exposure, particularly in China. This study examined the prospective associations among violence exposure, peer victimization, negative emotion, and IGD among Chinese adolescents.
methodsA total of 386 junior high school students (47.9% boys; Mage = 12.23, SD = 0.45) from Hubei Province completed three surveys at six-month intervals. Participants reported on exposure to violence, peer victimization, negative emotion, and IGD.
resultsStructural equation modeling showed that violence exposure at baseline (T1) was prospectively associated with IGD one year later (T3). In addition, violence exposure was indirectly associated with later IGD through sequential links involving peer victimization and negative emotion at T2.
conclusionThe present findings provide longitudinal evidence that violence exposure may be associated with adolescent IGD through peer victimization and negative emotion. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the environmental, interpersonal, and emotional processes associated with adolescent IGD and may offer directions for future prevention research.
