Internet Gaming Disorder symptoms in young adolescent

This requires you to first summarize the study’s main focus and findings in a language that can be understood by a broad (e.g., non-academic)
audience while remaining accurate in the reporting of results. You can get inspiration on the writing style of your article by looking at news coverage of
previously published studies. However, do not copy/modify/extend an existing news article on media effects! Failure to comply with this rule will result
in your paper receiving 0 points.
Discussion of Media Effect
You are required to discuss the kind, magnitude, and weight of the shown effect. Discuss the statistical and substantial significance of the effect. If the
study does not report any effect size measures, this clearly is a point for criticism that you should address.
Critique of Methodology
After introducing the study and presenting the main findings, you are asked to critique the study’s employed sample, design, measures, and reported
effect sizes for addressing posed hypotheses/research questions. Based on what you have learned in this and other communication courses, did the
researcher employ appropriate steps to test their hypotheses and research questions? What could be improved?
Implications
Lastly, based on the magnitude of the substantial effect demonstrated in the study, you are asked to highlight the societal significance of the effect for
particular entities (e.g., media users, parents, policy makers, etc.). For example, you could discuss how the findings of the study can be used to guide
future policy decisions, or inform media literacy programs.
Grading
For each of the above five sections (study choice, introduction, discussion of media effect, critique of methodology, and implications), you can earn 4
points, resulting in a total of 20 points for this assignment. You can earn points for concise and clear argumentation, critical reflection, and application
of course materials.
