Introdução: A utilização excessiva de videojogos foi reconhecida como um comportamento
que surge no contexto da adição à internet. Tem sido descrita na literatura como o uso
persistente e recorrente de jogos online/offline, sobrepondose aos restantes interesses e
atividades diárias, surgindo frequentemente relacionada com a agressividade e a regulação
emocional.
Método: Neste contexto, a presente investigação pretende estudar a relação entre a Utilização
Excessiva de Videojogos, a Agressividade e a Regulação Emocional. Este estudo foi aplicado
numa amostra de 190 sujeitos com idades compreendidas entre os 18 e os 21 anos e os 22 e os
40 anos. Os instrumentos utilizados foram a Escala de Transtorno de Videojogos (versão
reduzida), o Questionário de Agressividade de Buss Perry e a Escala de Dificuldades na
Regulação Emocional.
Resultados: Confirmouse que o Transtorno de Videojogos se correlaciona positiva e
estatisticamente com a Agressividade e a Regulação Emocional. Não se verificaram
diferenças significativas na escala de Transtorno de Videojogos em função do sexo, apesar de
as pontuações médias terem sido superiores no sexo masculino. Verificouse ainda uma
percentagem mais elevada no Transtorno de Videojogos em adolescentes. Estes resultados
dãonos conta da relação existente entre a escala de Transtorno de Videojogos, a
Agressividade e a Regulação Emocional.
