Twenge, J. Spending time on According to Twenge, she said
(2018) digital media that we must limit ourselves on
digital media. The maximum hours
to spend is no more than two
hours a day. Increasing the
amount of time spending with
friends or doing other things that
does not need digital media is
suggested. In teens, five hours of
spending video games is too
much.

This research shows the connection of the duration of time
spent playing on online games to the social anxiety symptoms. A
person playing online games (MMORPG) more than 14 hours per
week is very probable for having social anxiety. A person playing
online games too much can affect mind to have a social anxiety
disorder. Isolating person’s mind and body on online games is not
ideal in developing other aspects such as socializing with other
people.
Synthesis
Twenge, J. (2018) supports to limit the time spent in
using digitial media and do other activities such as
socializing to other people. On the other hand, playing
online games too much can cause social anxiety disorder
according to Bender, J. (2016). Online or computer games
topic can be attractive to pupils with the age of 11 and 14
can turn them to being active from being sleepy. Boys
spends their free time in playing computer games while girls
like to go out with friends only some consider their favorite
hobby as playing computer games (Basler, J. & Dostál, J.
(2015) )
