The increased usage of digital technologies transforms communication, education, business, and media, creating both opportunities and new health challenges. Excessive use of digital devices, social media platforms, online gaming, and internet-based applications bring concerns about digital addiction and associated digital diseases affecting psychological, social, and physical wellbeing. From a psychological perspective, these conditions are linked to anxiety, depression, attention difficulties, and behavioral dependency. Socially, they influence interpersonal relationships, social functioning, and community engagement, and clinically they present growing concerns for healthcare professionals and researchers. Understanding digital addiction through psychological, social, and clinical lenses may develop effective prevention strategies, therapeutic interventions, and policies that promote healthier digital lifestyles. Psychological, Social, and Clinical Perspectives on Digital Addiction and Digital Diseases explores the psychological, social, and clinical factors associated with digital addiction and technology-related health conditions arising from excessive use of digital devices and online platforms. It examines their causes, impacts on mental and physical wellbeing, diagnostic approaches, treatment strategies, and broader implications for individuals, families, and society. This book covers topics such as cognitive science, social media, and desensitization, and is a useful resource for psychologists, sociologists, medical and healthcare professionals, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
