of 41.6% (89 cases) in males and 29.22% (52 cases) in females. Furthermore,
self-esteem and family function were found to be negatively correlated to a high
degree with game addiction with statistical significance at .01 (r = -.822, p < 0.01; r =
-.818, p < 0.01, respectively). And according to the findings, self-esteem and family
function are capable of jointly predicting game addiction in children and
adolescents with statistical significance at .0001 (F = 252.24, p < .0001).
