Work addiction: An organizational behavior as well as an addictive behavior?
Commentary on: Ten myths about work addiction (Griffiths et al., 2018)
In their critical review, Griffiths et al. (2018) discussed 10 myths in the study of work addiction, and addressed the need to conceptualize and investigate this area of research more carefully. In this commentary, we expand their arguments, suggesting that indeed some of the popular myths have solid evidence-based results in the organizational literature. Yet, some of the arguments are only indirectly related to previous organizational findings. Therefore, we emphasize the need to resolve the ambiguities of work addiction, as well as to develop a comprehensive and interdisciplinary understanding of the well-known phenomenon of addictive work behavior.

to include both diagnostic and hazardous designations as currently being proposed for ICD-11 and is analogous to designations for other addictive behaviors (e.g., alcohol-use disorders and hazardous alcohol use as currently exist in the ICD-10). I
unregulated IP use and substance use disorders, some authors argue for a classification as a disorder due to addictive behaviors ( Gola et al., 2017 ; Love, Laier, Brand, Hatch, & Hajela, 2015 ; Potenza, Gola, Voon, Kor, & Kraus, 2017 ; Young, 2008
