dc.description.abstractObjective: The aim of this study was to determine the physical activity level, functional capacity, and depression in children with digital game addiction (DGA).Methods: Ninety-nine children (mean age: 10 +/- 1.53 years) with DGA were included in the study. Demographic, physical, and clinical characteristics were recorded. DGA was evaluated using the Digital Game Addiction Scale for Children, physical activity level with the Primary School Students' Physical Activity Questionnaire, functional capacity with the 2-Minute Walk test, and depression with the Depression Scale for Children.Results: Of the children, 17.2% were in the low-risk group, 41.4% were in the risky group, 26.3% were in the dependent group, and 15.2% were in the highly dependent group. DGA had a high negative correlation with physical activity level (r=-0.659; p=0.001), a weak positive correlation with depression (r=0.342; p=0.001), but no correlation with functional capacity (p>0.05). Simultaneously, it was found that physical activity and depression were found to be independent factors of the DGA with 43.4% of the variance. Additionally, a significant difference was found in terms of physical activity level and depression in children with DGA at different levels (p<0.05).Conclusion: In this study, a negative relationship was found between DGA and physical activity level, and a positive relationship with depression. It is important to raise the awareness of children and families about DGA. Additionally, children can be directed to various exercise programs to increase physical activity levels and reduce depression associated with DGA.en_US
