Abstract
The main problems regarding the problematic use of video games and pornography online are: how to assess when negative aspects of this use overcome positive ones, posing a risk to balanced development; whether this overcoming configures a pathology and, if so, of what kind; what is common and what is specific in the different forms and modes of abnormal behavior. This will allow programming appropriate psychosocial and/or clinical responses.
