- Abstract
The article offers information related to debate on the gaming disorder (GD) with logic, evidence and consensus. Topics include the need for conceptual clarity and strong evidence in this growing field of GD; distorting a simple proposition and then making this the target of criticism; and supporting GD as a diagnostic category in the "Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders" (DSM) and "International Classification of Diseases" (ICD) classification systems.
