Kjo fushë studimi po rritet në mënyrë eksponenciale. Që nga viti 2017, ka rreth 370 "studime të trurit" të varësisë nga interneti.

Përveç kësaj, hartimi i disa studimeve të varësisë nga interneti mbështet pretendimin se përdorimi i internetit po shkakton (në disa) simptoma të tilla si depresioni, ADHD, ankthi, etj.

Me përdoruesit e pornografisë, toleranca/zakonimi çon në mërzitje me zhanrin aktual ose llojin e pornografisë: stimulim më i madh shpesh arrihet duke u përshkallëzuar në zhanre të reja ose më ekstreme të pornografisë. Ndërsa ekziston një sasi e madhe provash klinike dhe anekdotike për tolerancën që çon në përshkallëzim te përdoruesit e pornografisë, a ka ndonjë studim? Duke përdorur metoda të ndryshme indirekte, mbi 45 studime kanë raportuar gjetje në përputhje me zakonin ndaj "pornografisë së rregullt" ose përshkallëzimin në zhanre më ekstreme dhe të pazakonta. Më në fund, vetëm në vitin 2017 ekipet kërkimore pyetën përdoruesit e pornografisë në internet drejtpërdrejt për simptomat e tërheqjes. As of 2020 there are <a href="https://www.yourbrainonporn.com/relevant-research-and-articles-about-the-studies/porn-use-sex-addiction-studies/studies-reporting-withdrawal-symptoms-in-porn-users/">13 studies reporting withdrawal symptoms in porn users</a>.</p> <h5 class="wp-block-heading">Is porn addition real?</h5> <p>What about neurological studies that debunk porn addiction? Nuk ka asnjë. Ndërsa autorja kryesore e Prause et al., 2015 pretendoi se studimi i saj i vetëm në EEG falsifikoi varësinë ndaj pornografisë, nëntë punime të rishikuara nuk pajtohen: Kritikat e rishikuara nga kolegët e Prause et al ., 2015 Neuroshkencëtarët në këto 2015 punime thonë se Prause et al . gjeti në fakt desensibilizimin/habitimin (në përputhje me zhvillimin e varësisë), pasi më pak aktivizim i trurit ndaj pornografisë së vaniljes (fotografi) lidhej me përdorimin më të madh të pornografisë. Në mënyrë të pabesueshme, Prause et al . Ekipi me guxim pretendoi se kishte falsifikuar modelin e varësisë nga pornografia me një paragraf të vetëm të marrë nga kjo (2015) falsifikimi i fundit i parashikimeve të varësisë." href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27318185">2016 "letër redaktorit."

Por 'varësia nga pornografia' nuk është në DSM-5 të APA, apo jo? Kur APA përditësoi manualin për herë të fundit në 2013 ( DSM-5) , ajo nuk mori në konsideratë zyrtarisht "varësinë nga pornografia në internet", duke zgjedhur në vend të kësaj të debatonte "çrregullimin hiperseksual". Termi ombrellë i fundit për sjelljen problematike seksuale u rekomandua për t'u përfshirë nga vetë Grupi i Punës së Seksualitetit të DSM-5 pas vitesh shqyrtimi. Megjithatë, në një seancë të orës së njëmbëdhjetë të "dhomës së yjeve" (sipas një anëtari të Grupit të Punës), zyrtarë të tjerë të DSM-5 hodhën poshtë në mënyrë të njëanshme hiperseksualitetin, 2017" href="http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/10720162.2017.1306468" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">duke cituar arsye që janë përshkruar si të palogjikshme .

Its “<em>weakness is its lack of validity</em>,” he explained, and “<em>we cannot succeed if we use DSM categories as the “gold standard.</em>” He added, “<em>That is why NIMH will be re-orienting its research away from DSM categorie</em>s.” In other words, the NIMH planned to stop funding research based on DSM labels (and their absence).</p> <h5 class="wp-block-heading">American Association of Addiction Medicine</h5> <p>Major medical organizations are moving ahead of the APA. Shoqëria Amerikane e Mjekësisë së Varësisë (ASAM) vendosi atë që duhet të ishte gozhda e fundit në arkivolin e debatit për varësinë nga pornografia në gusht 20190629190608, disa muaj përpara se të përgatitja fjalimin tim në TEDx. Ekspertët kryesorë të varësisë në ASAM publikuan ato (2011)" href="https://www.yourbrainonporn.com/miscellaneous-resources/the-american-society-for-addiction-medicine-new-definition-of-addiction-august-2011/american-society-for -addiction-medicine-definition-of-addiction-long-version-2011/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">përkufizimi i hartuar me kujdes i varësisë . Përkufizimi i ri bën disa nga pikat kryesore që bëra në fjalimin tim. Kryesisht, varësitë e sjelljes ndikojnë në tru në të njëjtat mënyra themelore si droga. Me fjalë të tjera, varësia është në thelb një sëmundje (gjendje), jo shumë . ASAM deklaroi në mënyrë eksplicite se varësia ndaj sjelljes seksuale ekziston dhe duhet domosdoshmërisht të shkaktohet nga të njëjtat ndryshime themelore të trurit që gjenden në varësitë ndaj substancave. Organizata Botërore e Shëndetësisë duket e gatshme të korrigjojë kujdesin e tepruar të APA. Edicioni tjetër i manualit të tij diagnostikues, ICD-11, do të marrë miratimin përfundimtar në vitin 2019. The <a title="CSB - ICD-11" href="https://icd.who.int/browse11/l-m/en#/http%3a%2f%2fid.who.int%2ficd%2fentity%2f1630268048">new ICD-11 includes a diagnosis for “Compulsive sexual behavior disorder,”</a> which is suitable for diagnosing what most people think of as “porn addiction.” Hopefully the DSM will fall in line.</p> <h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-3-internet-porn-use-may-exacerbate-certain-mental-and-emotional-conditions"><u>3) Internet porn use may exacerbate certain mental and emotional conditions</u></h4> <p><em>The Great Porn Experiment</em> described “The Other Porn Experiment” in which young men who eliminated porn use reported remission of emotional and cognitive problems. TGPE gjithashtu përshkroi "varësinë nga zgjimi" (varësia nga interneti dhe nëntipet e tij) që përkeqëson ose shkakton simptoma të tilla si mjegulla e trurit, problemi i përqendrimit, ankthi i përgjithësuar, depresioni dhe ankthi social. Që nga viti 2017 ekzistojnë qindra studime korrelative dhe disa dhjetëra studime të shkakësisë që mbështesin këtë pohim. Së pari, tani ka mbi 85 studime që lidhin përdorimin e pornografisë me shëndetin më të dobët mendor-emocional dhe rezultate më të dobëta njohëse . Qindra studime kanë lidhur përdorimin më të madh të internetit me shëndet më të dobët mendor-emocional dhe rezultate më të dobëta njohëse. Mbi 90 studime tregojnë varësinë nga interneti dhe përdorimin e pornografisë duke shkaktuar simptoma mendore, emocionale ose fizike. Unë gjithashtu përmenda se burrat i shohin gratë ndryshe pasi lënë pornografinë. Në mbështetje (të tërthortë) të kësaj, këtu janë mbi 40 studime që lidhin përdorimin e pornografisë me "qëndrimet jo-barazitare" ndaj grave .
