Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: The purpose of this study is twofold: one is to identify factors of online game addiction. Using a series of multidimensional factor analyses, we identified 3 factors: failure of self-control, escapism, positive evaluation of online experiences. The other is to investigate how these factors are influenced by the basic psychological needs articulated by the self-determination theory. Using structural equation modeling, we examined how autonomy, competence, and relatedness influenced overall life satisfaction, which, in turn, affected the three factors of online game addiction. The data, collected from 8th graders, adequately fit the hypothesized model. Through latent mean analysis, gender differences were also examined. The male students appeared to have higher levels of failure of addictive behaviors than the female students, and the females appeared to have higher levels of relatedness. The paths coefficients among the constructs, however, did not show statistically significant differences. The implication of the results is that enhancing autonomy, competence, and relatedness would be an effective approach for the female as well as the male adolescents for reducing online game addictive behaviors.
