Abstract This scoping review aimed to synthesise literature on problematic internet use and substance use disorder, including how they affect men, given that prior research has predominantly focused on women. The search included Web of Science, Psych Info, Science Direct, and Scopus spanning over the period 2014–2023. Studies were included for the review if they focused on Problematic Internet Use (PIU) and Substance Use Disorder (SUD) among men, were peer-reviewed, and were written in English.
