Abstract :
Introduction: The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between parental health literacy and the positive and negative emotions of students diagnosed with online gaming addiction.
Methodology: This research was correlational in nature, descriptive in purpose, and applied in terms of its practical implications. The statistical population of the study consisted of all primary school students in Qazvin during the 1403–1404 academic year that had been identified as having an addiction to online games, based on parental reports and self-disclosure. Using a randomized cluster sampling method and applying Cochran’s formula, 384 individuals were selected as the statistical sample. The data required for the study were collected using two instruments: the health literacy questionnaire developed by Waiting and colleagues (2014), and the standardized Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) developed by Watson and Tellegen (1988). The research data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and regression analysis with the assistance of SPSS software.
Findings: The findings indicated a significant relationship between the components of parental health literacy and the positive and negative emotional states of students with online gaming addiction.
