Abstract
In a sample of ninety-three undergraduate students, anxiety, depression, and stress symptomatology significantly predicted problematic online gaming behaviors. Depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms were all predictive of interpersonal conflict stemming from online gaming behaviors. Furthermore, depressive symptoms were significantly associated with the most subtypes of problematic online gaming behaviors.
