Resumen

La presente investigación tuvo como propósito examinar los niveles de adicción a video juegos y poner a prueba un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales para determinar si la adicción a ellos predecía los niveles de sueño y malestar psicológico. Se constituyó una muestra de 612 jóvenes adultos de género masculino, con una media de 21 años (DE = 2.95). Contestaron un cuestionario demográfico, el cuestionario GASA, el cuestionario de sueño y el DASS-21. Los resultados indicaron niveles altos de adicción a video juegos, la edad introducía diferencia debido a niveles más altos en el grupo adolescente en comparación con el de jóvenes adultos. El modelo estructural presentó un ajuste adecuado y la adicción predecía mayores dificultades de sueño y un menor bienestar psicológico; también la calidad de sueño era un predictor significativo del malestar. En la discusión se analizan las implicancias de estos hallazgos y se brindan sugerencias para futuras investigaciones.
