    Internet Gaming Disorder and Fortnite

    In the first portion of this podcast I discuss the scientific community's current understanding of Internet Gaming Disorder (IGD). Once foundational information of IGD is covered, we talk to my younger 15 year-old brother about IGD and his excessive Fortnite consumption (Discussion with my brother begins at 13:50). Is my brother actually addicted to Fortnite? If so, how many more American teenagers are? How does this affect society? Note: Although I use the term "Internet Gaming Use Disorder" at various points throughout the recording in error, the widely used and accepted term is in fact Internet Gaming Disorder. Acknowledgements: I would like to thank my parents for providing consent to record the discussion with my younger brother. I would also like to thank my brother for his insight into this interesting issue.
