Abstract
Researchers were able to correlate porn addiction based on electroencephalogram (EEG) signal analysis to the psychological instruments’ findings. In this paper we attempt to correlate the porn addiction to various cases of learning disorders through analyzing EEG signals. Since porn addiction involved the brainwave power at the frontal of the brain, which reflects the executive functions, this may have correlation to learning disorder. Only three types of learning disorder will be of interest in our study involving dyslexic, attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and autistic children because they involved reduced intellectual ability observed from the lack of listening, speaking, reading, writing, reasoning, or mathematical proficiencies. Children with such disorder when expose to the internet unfiltered porn contents may have minimal understanding of the negative effects of the contents. Such unmonitored exposure to pornographic contents may result to porn addiction because it may trigger excitement and induced pleasure. Experimental results show strong correlation of learning disorders to porn addiction, which can be worthwhile for further analysis. In addition, this paper also indicates that analyzing brainwave patterns could provide a better insight into predicting and detecting children with learning disorders and addiction with direct analysis of the brain wave patterns.
Highlights
Most children with learning disorders have one or more functional limitation that may involves cognitive, developmental, intellectual, mental, physical, sensory, and/or combination of these attributes
All learning disorders detection was carried out using the time domain analysis based on power of the various EEG signal band as suggested from the literatures [20,21,22, 24,25,26] as well as porn addiction detection [9, 10, 12]
Based on the results and discussions, porn addiction seems to have some correlation with autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) but not directly observable with ADHD and dyslexia
Summary
Most children with learning disorders have one or more functional limitation that may involves cognitive, developmental, intellectual, mental, physical, sensory, and/or combination of these attributes. It is reported that over 1 billion people or approximately 15% of the world population experienced disorder globally. From this statistic, Malaysia recorded 531,962 and 494,074 cases in 2014 and 2013 respectively with 7.67% increment of the reported cases [1]. Report by Department of Social Welfare further elaborated that 35% of the disorder cases in 2014 were from learning disorder followed by physical (33%), hearing (12%), vision (9%), others (5%), mental (5%) and speech impairments (1%) [2]. Recent study by Mesibov and Sreckovic reported that individual with autism spectrum
