The authors are retracting this article [1]. After publication they became aware that the criteria they had used for the diagnosis of problematic game use were not the DSM-5 Internet gaming disorder criteria as reported in the article but other similar criteria. As this error undermines the results and conclusions of their study they are retracting this article. All authors agree with this retraction.
