The present study aimed to explore the prevalence of psychostimulant use among individuals with WA in a representative sample ( N = 3076). Lifetime, last year, and last month prevalence of licit and illicit stimulant use were explored. Bergen Work Addiction Scale and the 18-item version of the Brief Symptom Inventory were applied for assessing WA and psychopathological symptoms. Addictive workers showed significantly higher prevalence of smoking, energy drink consumption, amphetamine, NPS, and cocaine use than non-addictive workers. Moreover, they also reported more psychopathological symptoms. Since addictive workers have a higher vulnerability to potentially risky stimulant use, workplace mental health programs should address screening and prevention of WA.}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1557-1882}, pages = {105-126}, orcid-numbers = {Kun, Bernadette/0000-0003-1609-2977; Mervó, Barbara/0000-0002-4141-8126; Magi, Anna Katalin/0000-0001-6363-499X; Eisinger, Andrea/0000-0003-4433-8022; Paksi, Borbála/0000-0002-3616-2867; Demetrovics, Zsolt/0000-0001-5604-7551} } @article{MTMT:36355579, title = {An extended model of gambling motives: The first results with the long and short versions of the gambling motives questionnaire-revised}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/36355579}, author = {Magi, Anna Katalin and Horváth, Zsolt and Villalba-García, Cristina and Paksi, Borbála and Eisinger, Andrea and Felvinczi, Katalin and Stewart, Sherry H and Bőthe, Beáta and Kökönyei, Gyöngyi and Demetrovics, Zsolt and Czakó, Andrea}, doi = {10.1016/j.comppsych.2025.152633}, journal-iso = {COMPR PSYCHIAT}, journal = {COMPREHENSIVE PSYCHIATRY}, volume = {143}, unique-id = {36355579}, issn = {0010-440X}, abstract = {Background: Motives underlying addictions have been widely studied, using validated tools such as the Gambling Motives Questionnaire (GMQ) (Stewart and Zack, 2008). Nevertheless, subsequent studies have suggested the need to extend this model. The present paper aimed to identify potential additional factors, such as escapism, omnipotence, pleasure and financial motives, in addition to the social, enhancement and coping aspects already included. Methods: A total of 40 motivational items (adding 25 additional items to the original GMQ items) were analysed within two datasets. Sample 1 was a player panel from a gambling service provider (N = 1829; mean age: 42.4 [SD = 13.3]; Females: 30 % [n = 548]), while Sample 2 consisted of a nationally representative sample of the Hungarian population (N = 437; mean age: 42.9 [SD = 13.55]; Females: 49.2 % [N = 215]). Results: Exploratory Factor Analysis on Sample 1 identified four factors (including a total of 27 items): coping/escapism, social motives, enhancement/pleasure, and financial motives. The four-factor structure was confirmed on Sample 2 with confirmatory factor analysis showing adequate model fit (CFI = 0.987; TLI = 0.986; RMSEA [CI] = 0.047 [0.041-0.052]); however, high inter-factor correlations were evident in the general population sample. A shorter, 14-item version of the scale was also suggested. Conclusions: Although the newly identified motives overlap with the original ones, the content of the factors enables the inclusion of certain aspects, like escapism within the coping factor, that proved to be the most important in relation to other potentially addictive behaviours. This suggests that examining the role of motives in gambling may be crucial in differentiating between problem gambling and recreational gambling.}, year = {2025}, eissn = {1532-8384}, orcid-numbers = {Magi, Anna Katalin/0000-0001-6363-499X; Horváth, Zsolt/0000-0001-9088-8186; Paksi, Borbála/0000-0002-3616-2867; Eisinger, Andrea/0000-0003-4433-8022; Felvinczi, Katalin/0000-0003-1813-7227; Kökönyei, Gyöngyi/0000-0001-6750-2644; Demetrovics, Zsolt/0000-0001-5604-7551; Czakó, Andrea/0000-0003-4525-0524} } @article{MTMT:33730780, title = {Morningness-Eveningness and Problematic Online Activities}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/33730780}, author = {Pigniczkiné Rigó, Adrien and Tóth-Király, I. and Magi, Anna Katalin and Eisinger, Andrea and Griffiths, M.D. and Demetrovics, Zsolt}, doi = {10.1007/s11469-023-01017-x}, journal-iso = {INT J MEN HEALTH ADD}, journal = {INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MENTAL HEALTH AND ADDICTION}, volume = {22}, unique-id = {33730780}, issn = {1557-1874}, abstract = {Online activities and problematic online behaviors have recently emerged as important research topics. However, only a few studies have explored the possible associations between these behaviors and morningness-eveningness. The authors examined whether eveningness predicts these distinct problematic online behaviors differently and directly or via mediators. The associations between eveningness and three different problematic online behaviors (problematic Internet use, problematic online gaming, and problematic social media use) were explored among a large sample of Hungarian young adults (N = 1729, 57.2% female, Mage = 22.01, SDage = 1.97) by using a self-report survey. Depression and the time spent engaging in online activities were assessed as possible mediators. The effects of age and sex were controlled for. Using structural equation modeling, the results supported the association between eveningness and the higher risk for all three problematic online behaviors and highlighted that these associations were mediated by depressive mood and time spent on the activities. In addition, eveningness also predicted PIU directly. Eveningness is a risk factor for problematic online behaviors not only because of the higher amount of time spent on the activities but also because of the worse mood associated with eveningness. The results highlight that it is important to examine the different types of online activity separately and explore the role of diverse risk factors, among them morningness-eveningness. © 2023, The Author(s).}, keywords = {PROBLEMATIC INTERNET USE; Morningness-eveningness; Problematic online gaming; Depressive mood; Problematic social media use; Time engagement}, year = {2024}, eissn = {1557-1882}, pages = {2766-2786}, orcid-numbers = {Pigniczkiné Rigó, Adrien/0000-0003-2940-2110; Magi, Anna Katalin/0000-0001-6363-499X; Eisinger, Andrea/0000-0003-4433-8022; Demetrovics, Zsolt/0000-0001-5604-7551} } @article{MTMT:35131251, title = {A new comprehensive empirically based measurement tool to assess gambling motives}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/35131251}, author = {Czakó, Andrea and Horváth, Zsolt and SHU, M.

However, the relationship between these behaviors has received scarce attention among young adult samples. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the association between NMUSH and symptoms of distinct BAs among young adults. Materials and methods: Analyses were conducted based on the data of two large sample studies (including a representative sample) carried out with young adult samples. The following BAs were assessed: problematic internet use, problematic video gaming, problematic social media use, problem gambling, exercise addiction, eating disorders, compulsive buying behavior, problematic mobile phone use, work addiction, and hair pulling. Symptoms of distinct BAs were analyzed in three groups formed based on the NMUSH: non-users, lifetime users, and current users. Results: The symptoms of problematic internet use, problematic social media use, problem gambling, exercise addiction, eating disorders, compulsive buying behavior and work addiction were significantly more severe among lifetime and/or current non-medical sedative and hypnotic users, compared to the non-user participants. The symptoms of problematic mobile phone use were the most severe in the non-user group. Conclusions: The results suggest co-occurrence between NMUSH and distinct BAs among young adults. These findings draw attention to the need for preventive interventions for this high-risk population. © 2023 The Author(s)}, keywords = {Adult; Female; Male; PREVALENCE; ARTICLE; human; comparative study; questionnaire; major clinical study; clinical feature; disease severity; hypnotic sedative agent; psychometry; heredity; high risk population; eating disorder; lifespan; DSM-IV; non prescription drug; YOUNG adults; ADDICTION SEVERITY INDEX; Exercise addiction; Internet addiction; sedatives; BEHAVIORAL ADDICTIONS; Workaholism; Bergen Work Addiction Scale; behavioral addiction; trichotillomania; Pathological gambling; Exercise addiction inventory; hypnotics; Social media addiction; compulsive buying; Problematic Mobile Phone Use Questionnaire; Mobile phone addiction; Game addiction; Bergen social media addiction scale; non-medical prescription drug use; SCOFF questionnaire; epidemiological model questionnaire; massachusetts general hospital hairpulling scale; problematic internet use questionnaire; richmond compulsive buying scale; ten item internet gaming disorder test}, year = {2023}, eissn = {2352-8532}, orcid-numbers = {Paksi, Borbála/0000-0002-3616-2867; Magi, Anna Katalin/0000-0001-6363-499X; Eisinger, Andrea/0000-0003-4433-8022; Kótyuk, Eszter/0000-0002-6630-087X; Czakó, Andrea/0000-0003-4525-0524; Demetrovics, Zsolt/0000-0001-5604-7551} } @CONFERENCE{MTMT:33882772, title = {Work addiction and psychoactive substance use}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/33882772}, author = {Kun, Bernadette and Demetrovics, Zsolt and Paksi, Borbála and Eisinger, Andrea and Magi, Anna Katalin}, booktitle = {21st EAWOP Congress - Book of abstracts}, unique-id = {33882772}, year = {2023}, pages = {1591-1592}, orcid-numbers = {Kun, Bernadette/0000-0003-1609-2977; Demetrovics, Zsolt/0000-0001-5604-7551; Paksi, Borbála/0000-0002-3616-2867; Eisinger, Andrea/0000-0003-4433-8022; Magi, Anna Katalin/0000-0001-6363-499X} } @article{MTMT:34203649, title = {Substance use habits in work addiction}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34203649}, author = {Kun, Bernadette and Magi, Anna Katalin and Eisinger, Andrea and Paksi, Borbála and Demetrovics, Zsolt}, journal-iso = {J BEHAV ADDICT}, journal = {JOURNAL OF BEHAVIORAL ADDICTIONS}, volume = {12}, unique-id = {34203649}, issn = {2062-5871}, year = {2023}, eissn = {2063-5303}, pages = {102}, orcid-numbers = {Kun, Bernadette/0000-0003-1609-2977; Magi, Anna Katalin/0000-0001-6363-499X; Eisinger, Andrea/0000-0003-4433-8022; Paksi, Borbála/0000-0002-3616-2867; Demetrovics, Zsolt/0000-0001-5604-7551} } @CONFERENCE{MTMT:34281140, title = {A játékkal töltött idő és a játékhasználati zavar tüneteinek kapcsolata serdülők körében: A mentális egészség, mint moderáló tényező}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34281140}, author = {Koncz, Patrik and Demetrovics, Zsolt and Paksi, Borbála and Magi, Anna Katalin and Király, Orsolya}, booktitle = {ONK2023 Absztraktkötet : Elkötelezettség és rugalmasság: a neveléstudomány útjai az átalakuló világban}, unique-id = {34281140}, year = {2023}, pages = {165-166}, orcid-numbers = {Koncz, Patrik/0000-0001-8369-624X; Demetrovics, Zsolt/0000-0001-5604-7551; Paksi, Borbála/0000-0002-3616-2867; Magi, Anna Katalin/0000-0001-6363-499X; Király, Orsolya/0000-0001-9981-4212} } @article{MTMT:34540879, title = {Sensation seeking, drinking motives, and going out mediate the link between eveningness and alcohol use and problems in adolescence}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34540879}, author = {Pigniczkiné Rigó, Adrien and Toth-Kiraly, Istvan and Magi, Anna Katalin and Eisinger, Andrea and Demetrovics, Zsolt and Urbán, Róbert}, doi = {10.1080/07420528.2023.2256396}, journal-iso = {CHRONOBIOL INT}, journal = {CHRONOBIOLOGY INTERNATIONAL}, volume = {40}, unique-id = {34540879}, issn = {0742-0528}, abstract = {The present study was aimed at obtaining a more comprehensive understanding of the possible mediating factors in the morningness-eveningness -> alcohol consumption relation.
