Aim: The present study aimed to examine a structural relationship model for predicting online gaming addiction based on childhood trauma and motivational self-talk, with social adjustment serving as a mediating variable.
Method: This study employed a correlational design based on structural equation modeling (SEM). The statistical population comprised all second-grade high school students in Sabzevar, Iran, in 2024. From this population, 200 students were selected through multistage cluster random sampling. Participants completed the Online Game Addiction Questionnaire (OGAQ; Wang et al., 2002), the Childhood Trauma Questionnaire–Short Form (CTQ-SF; Bernstein et al., 1998), the Motivational Self-Talk Questionnaire (MSTQ; Wolters et al., 2000), and the Social Adjustment Questionnaire (SAQ; Sohrabi et al., 2011). Data were analyzed using SPSS.26 and SmartPLS.3.
Results: The results indicated that childhood trauma had a direct and significant positive effect on online gaming addiction (p < 0.001; β = 0.571). In contrast, motivational self-talk (p < 0.001; β = –0.64) and social adjustment (p < 0.01; β = –0.584) had direct and significant negative effects on online gaming addiction. Furthermore, the path analysis revealed that motivational self-talk (p < 0.05; β = –0.26) and childhood trauma (p < 0.05; β = –0.24) exerted indirect significant effects on online gaming addiction through social adjustment. The model fit indices confirmed the adequate fit of the proposed model.
Conclusion: The findings suggest that, in order to reduce online gaming addiction, future preventive and therapeutic interventions should take childhood trauma, motivational self-talk, and social adjustment into account.
