Thank you for your help though!

I think my brain might just be blocking the understanding of this word because I'm set on a translation I can't find.

Oh, I guess this makes sense to understand the word in general. I can picture this even. Thanks!

So, how would that be in terms of addiction? Could it be similar to an obsession?

I forgot to mention: this is the context for the word (which seems like a definition, but I don't understand it).

"salience (i.e., when the activity becomes the sole focus of the individual's life, leading to cravings to engage in the activity and potentially distorted behaviours and thoughts)"

Thank you for your effort, but I still don't see how I can fit this in my text.
