Abstract
The article explores the impact of online video games and pornography on adolescent identity development, highlighting both benefits and risks. While these digital contexts provide opportunities for self-exploration, they also pose dangers, such as identity fragmentation and distorted perceptions of self and relationships. Intervention strategies should aim at promoting a healthy integration of virtual and real identities, involving families, schools, and communities to prevent addictions and dysfunctional behaviors
