Salutogenesis Model Care for Adolescent Digital Game Addiction Prevention

This study aims to address digital game addiction in adolescents, which is increasingly recognized as a significant mental health concern. The research focuses on adolescents due to their high levels of internet and gaming use, which can lead to addiction. This addiction is often exacerbated by stressors common in adolescence, such as family and social pressures, and the anxiety of academic performance. The study employs the Salutogenesis Model, which emphasizes developing a strong sense of integrity to help adolescents manage stress and reduce their reliance on digital games. By strengthening their ability to cope with stress, the study seeks to prevent the onset of digital game addiction, ultimately improving the mental and physical well-being of adolescents. Participants in the study will engage in activities and interventions based on the Salutogenesis Model designed to enhance their internal and external resources. This approach focuses on promoting positive coping strategies and improving their sense of coherence, which includes understanding, managing, and finding meaning in life's demands. Though no specific risks are mentioned, the study intends to provide guidance on improving mental health, vision, physical pain, sleep, nutrition, social contacts, and physical activity. By equipping adolescents with better stress management skills, the study hopes to reduce problematic internet use and prevent digital game addiction, contributing to healthier lifestyles.
