这项研究的目的是确定青少年网络成瘾的发病率和缓解率以及相关的预测因素,随访时间为1年。这是一项前瞻性、基于人群的研究。研究对象为台湾南部三所国中的517名学生(男267名,女250名)。研究的因素包括性别、人格、心理健康、自尊、家庭功能、生活满意度和网络活动。结果表明,网络成瘾1年发病率为7.5%,缓解率为49.5%。高探索兴奋性、低奖赏依赖性、低自尊、低家庭功能、玩网络游戏对网络成瘾的发生有预测作用。此外,低敌意和低人际敏感预测缓解网络成瘾。本研究所确定的预测青少年网络成瘾发生和缓解的因素,可为预防和促进青少年网络成瘾的缓解提供参考。
The aim of the study is to determine the incidence and remission rates for Internet addiction and the associated predictive factors in young adolescents over a 1-year follow-up. This was a prospective, population-based investigation. Five hundred seventeen students ( 267 male and 250 female) were recruited from three junior high schools in southern Taiwan. The factors examined included gender, personality, mental health, self-esteem, family function, life satisfaction, and Internet activities. The result revealed that the 1-year incidence and remission rates for Internet addiction were 7.5% and 49.5% respectively. High exploratory excitability, low reward dependence, low self-esteem, low family function, and online game playing predicted the emergency of the Internet addiction. Further, low hostility and low interpersonal sensitivity predicted remission of Internet addiction. The factors predictive incidence and remission of Internet addiction identified in this study could be provided for prevention and promoting remission of Internet addiction in adolescents.
