Individual Differences and the Development of Internet Addiction:
29 de Dezembro de 2017
Internet addiction (IA) has emerged as a universal issue, but its international estimates vary due to different
screening instruments and different samples. The present study aims to estimate the risk of IA in
a school-based nationally representative sample of Slovenian adolescents and ascertain the interplay
between IA, sociodemographic factors, free-time activities, self-control, and perceived satisfaction with
life. Overall, the present study found that adolescents at greater risk for developing IA tend to be more
passive in their free time, since they watch TV and play video games more than their peers, as well as
chat on social media. Adolescents presenting high risk of IA displayed poorer levels of self-control
in most cases and reported to be generally less satisfied with their lives in comparison to adolescents
presenting low risk of IA.
