    Abstract According to the Elaborated Intrusion Theory of Desire, desire thinking and an associated deficit are fundamental factors to the emergence of craving. In the special case of problematic social networking sites (SNS) use, this experienced deficit could be constituted of an online-specific fear of missing out (FoMO). To test the interaction of these cognitions and their influence on problematic SNS use, we tested a serial mediation model on a sample of N = 193 individuals who use SNS (73% female, M

    Abstract Social networks are frequently used to distract, procrastinate, or cope with stress. We aimed to investigate how (problematic) social-networks use affect stress perception in interaction with different stress recovery conditions. A total of 104 participants were randomly assigned to one of four groups. Three groups underwent a stress induction with subsequent stress recovery via (1) using Facebook, (2) reading magazines, or (3) waiting. Another group (4) waited without stress induction. Stress perception was repeatedly assessed with the State-Trait-Anxiety-Inventory. Facebook use and reading magazines decreased acute stress indicating adaptive coping strategies. Stress-recovery conditions and symptom severity showed significant interactions. Facebook use was not effective for individuals with high symptom severity in contrast to non-digital strategies or for individuals with low symptom severity. The usage of social networks may be an adaptive strategy for coping with stress for some people, it is maladaptive for individuals having a problematic usage.

    Abstract According to the Elaborated Intrusion Theory of Desire, desire thinking and an associated deficit are fundamental factors to the emergence of craving. In the special case of problematic social networking sites (SNS) use, this experienced deficit could be constituted of an online-specific fear of missing out (FoMO). To test the interaction of these cognitions and their influence on problematic SNS use, we tested a serial mediation model on a sample of N = 193 individuals who use SNS (73% female, Mage = 28.3, SD = 9.29). We found that desire thinking predicted FoMO and both variables were only significant predictors of problematic SNS use when considered in interplay with craving. Ad hoc analyses revealed that the verbal subcomponent of desire thinking is more strongly associated with FoMO than imaginal prefiguration. Our results highlight that neither desire thinking nor FoMO are inherently dysfunctional but become problematic when they increase craving for potentially problematic SNS use.

    Abstract "Dieses Spiel macht süchtig" - das ist ein Satz, der von manchen Spieleherstellern als Werbeslogan verwendet wird. Vermutlich soll er ausdrücken, dass das Spielen, wenn man einmal begonnen hat, sich so gut anfühlt, dass man gar nicht mehr aufhören möchte. Selbstverständlich ist nicht jede Person süchtig, die leidenschaftlich gerne Computerspiele spielt. Und die meisten Personen nutzen in ihrem Alltag viele verschiedene Internetapplikationen, wie soziale Netzwerke und Shoppingseiten, ohne damit ein Problem zu haben. Ein Leben in Abstinenz, also gänzlich ohne das Nutzen von Internetanwendungen, ist wohl kaum vorstellbar. Dennoch ist inzwischen auch klar, dass Einzelne eine problematische bzw. suchtartige Nutzung verschiedener Internetapplikationen entwickeln und dadurch deutliche Schwierigkeiten im Alltag haben. Ist das Spiel daran schuld? Oder die Shoppingseite? Wohl kaum, denn die meisten Personen nutzen die Anwendungen funktional in den Alltag integriert und erleben die Nutzung als bereichernd. Gleichwohl sind es bestimmte Applikationen, die eher suchtartig genutzt werden als andere. Es sind insbesondere solche Anwendungen, die sehr effizient Belohnungsgefühle vermitteln können und auch genutzt werden, um Stress und negative Gefühle abzubauen. Was passiert bei den Betroffenen während der Interaktion mit den Applikationen im Verlauf einer Suchtentwicklung? Diese und weitere Fragen werden in diesem Kapitel adressiert.

    Abstract Connective tissue diseases often have overlapping clinical features and laboratory abnormalities. The distinctiveness of mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) as an entity is of scientific interest and practical importance. In order to discriminate between MCTD and SLE patients we used a newly developed, commercially not available ELISA with recombinant antigen expressed in Baculovirus infected cells. This ELISA detects antibodies against RNP and Sm in complex as well as the subsets U1-snRNP 68 kDa, RNP-A, RNP-C (RNP), Sm-BB' and SS-D. We analyzed 66 RNP-positive consecutive patients prediagnosed as SLE or MCTD/overlap-syndrome. 45/66 patients were found to be U1-snRNP-68 kDa positive (27 SLE, 18 MCTD), 51/66 RNP-A [36,15] and 44/66 RNP-C [31,13]. 35/66 had antibodies against Sm-BB' (30 SLE, 5 MCTD), 10/66 against Sm-D (all SLE). 28/66 were found to be U1-snRNP-68 kDa and Sm-BB' positive (23 SLE, 5 MCTD), while 8/66 where U1-snRNP-68 kDa and Sm-D positive (all SLE). The combination of antibodies against 68 kDa, Aand C was exclusively observed in 6 MCTD patients, while the combination against 68 kDa, A, C, Sm-BB' and Sm-D was restricted to 8 patients with SLE. The antibody combination to 68 kDa, A, C and Sm-BB' was also found in 11/20 SLE patients with major organ involvement. In SLE and MCTD, determination of subsets of antibodies against Ul-snRNP-68 kDa and Sm-complex allows a differentiation of patient subgroups with more definite diagnoses and potential prognostic impact.

    Abstract This special issue addresses the affective and cognitive processes and their interactions potentially reflecting mechanisms underlying the development, maintenance of, or recovery from behavioral addictions. Various specific types of behavioral addictions will be considered, including those already in ICD-11 (gambling disorder, gaming disorder), but also new phenomena that are not yet classified (e.g., buying-shopping disorder, social-network-disorder) and phenomena potentially belonging to behavioral addictions although they are currently classified elsewhere (e.g., compulsive sexual behavior disorder). The articles included in this special issue directly investigate affective processes (e.g., cue-reactivity, craving, mood, stress, social interactions) and/or cognitive processes (e.g., executive functions, attention, memory). The studies involve experimental paradigms, neuropsychological tasks, psychophysiological measures, and neuroimaging techniques. Specific articles also deal with the relationship between affective and cognitive processes. The special issue is complemented by articles covering current debates and reviewing current empirical findings in the field.

    Abstract Implicit cognitions may be involved in the development and maintenance of specific Internet use disorders such as problematic social network use (PSNU). In more detail, implicit attitude, attentional biases, approach and avoidance tendencies as well as semantic memory associations are considered relevant in the context of PSNU. This viewpoint article summarizes the available literature on implicit cognitions in PSNU. We systematically reviewed articles of implicit cognitions in PSNU from PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and ProQuest databases based on a targeted search strategy and assessed using predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The present findings suggest that specific implicit cognitions are important in the context of PSNU and therefore show parallels to other addictive behaviors. However, the empirical evidence is limited to a few studies on this topic. Implicit cognitions in PSNU should be explored in more depth and in the context of other affective and cognitive mechanisms in future work.

    Abstract Background: Beyond gaming disorder and gambling disorder, pornography-use disorder, buying-shopping disorder, and social-networksuse disorders are discussed as further disorders due to addictive behaviors. For addictive behaviors, it is assumed that the experience of gratification and the experience of compensation due to the specific behavior represent reinforcing processes involved in the development and maintenance of the problematic behaviors. We aimed to develop two questionnaires that capture the experienced gratification and experienced compensation while using online activities. We additionally assume significant relationships with further addiction-related constructs such as symptom severity, use expectancies, and craving experiences.
    Methods: We conducted three studies for the development of the "Experience of Gratification Scale" (EGS) and the "Experience of Compensation Scale" (ECS). In each study, participants answered the questionnaires modified for their preferred online activity (gaming, gambling, buying-shopping, social-networks use, pornography use). Additional questionnaires were used, assessing further addiction-related constructs.
    Results: The results of the gradual approach by using exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses indicated for both scales a two-factor solution resulting in "gratification of needs" and "experience of pleasure" for the EGS, and "compensation of needs" and "experience of relief from negative feelings" for the ECS. The factors were significantly correlated with each other as well as with craving experiences, use expectancies, and symptom severity. Moreover, we found significant differences in the experienced gratification and experienced compensation for specific online behaviors.
    Conclusion: The theoretically plausible specific factors for experienced gratification and experienced compensation could be identified and were related to constructs considered important in addictive online behaviors. Further studies should investigate the relevance of these constructs for different types of addictive behaviors, but also within the addiction process addressing specific needs and motives as well as further positive and negative reinforcement mechanisms.

    Abstract Background: Social networking sites (SNSs) such as Facebook, Snapchat, and Instagram are now used frequently by millions of people worldwide. However, there are concerns of problematic social networking site use (PSNSU) and psychopathological symptoms that may be co-morbid with this behaviour. The present study investigated the interactions between PSNSU severity, time spent on SNSs, anxiety severity, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) severity, and resilience levels. Method: A total of 458 SNS users (mean age = 32.35 years, SD = 10.44) completed an online survey consisting of measures assessing PSNSU severity, anxiety severity, ADHD severity, and resilience levels. Results: Bivariate correlations identified moderate positive correlations between PSNSU severity, time spent on SNSs, anxiety severity, and ADHD severity, and a negative correlation between PSNSU severity and resilience levels. The moderated regression analyses revealed that anxiety severity as well as the interaction of anxiety severity and resilience levels significantly explained 28.6% of the variance in PSNSU severity. The simple slopes analysis was calculated indicating the main effect of anxiety severity. Furthermore, ADHD severity was also a significant predictor of PSNSU severity, but there was no significant interaction effect with resilience levels. Additional analysis illustrated that both variables investigating psychopathological symptoms significantly interact in predicting PSNSU severity. There was no significant effect of the three-way interaction between anxiety severity, ADHD severity, and resilience levels. Conclusion: The study showed that anxiety severity and ADHD severity are risk factors in the development of PSNSU severity and resilience levels may have a preventive effect, which must be investigated in further studies.
