Everyone was isolated for a lengthy period during the COVID lockdown, which resulted in binge-watching. An alarming trend has been burgeoning among emerging adults with internet usage due to online streaming platforms such as Netflix, Hotstar, Amazon Prime, and others. Binge-watching is very popular, especially among the younger generation, and they have access to the internet regularly. People started spending their valuable time in front of screens and always watched episodes of series and shows repetitively in one sitting. This habit produced multiple negative outcomes and created an unbalance in society. People started desensitizing the value of time and started neglecting their physical and psychological health. The more binge-watching you do, the more sleep deprivation you'll have, which can lead to both mental and physical exhaustion. From a psychological point of view, there is a growing need to figure out the consequences of binge-watching and its related aspects. The major aim of the present study is to explore the relationship between binge-watching, sleep quality, and fatigue among emerging adults. A sample of 140 emerging adults aged between 18-22 were selected from various colleges located in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. The personal data sheet and standardized instruments were used to measure binge-watching, sleep quality, and fatigue. The study results showed that there is a significant relationship between binge-watching, sleep quality, and fatigue. Hence, the study results can be adopted to design certain psychological interventions to improve sleep quality and diminish binge-watching and fatigue.Keywords

Chronic diseases are still considered one of the leading causes of death worldwide and a major concern for national health systems. Rheumatoid arthritis is one of them with an unknown etiology. The prolonged course of illness has many impacts, and early diagnosis may provide opportunities to stop symptoms or the disease from getting worse or improve patients’ quality of life. Environmental factors and personal characteristics, such as lifestyle choices and psychological makeup, can influence how negatively a disease affects a person’s quality of life. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is a form of cognitive behavioral therapy that aims to reduce the painful subjective experiences that are the causes of suffering and other psychological difficulties. It focuses on the client’s ability to accept the conditions rather than control or escape them. It also helps to establish oneself with more clarity and purpose to survive the conditions. ACT involves attempts to change the existing perception by replacing specific maladaptive thoughts. It emphasizes the relative influence of conditioned thoughts and their negative influence on one’s meaningful life. The present study aims to examine the benefits of ACT-based intervention and its impact on rheumatoid arthritis patients. A review analysis showed that acceptance and commitment therapy greatly support RA patients and help manage the disease. Even though it has several benefits, it is not applied in arthritis patients as a therapeutic technique. The study recommends the inclusion of acceptance-based interventions along with pharmacotherapy to address the psychosocial problems of arthritis patients.Keywords
