过去对互联网依赖的研究表明，那些谁是互联网依赖花更多的时间在线，更频繁地使用聊天室，更经常地玩MUD，和网上冲浪比非依赖互联网用户，但很少有研究探讨了人格特征如何与互联网依赖相互作用。本研究旨在探讨网路使用、偏好、网路态度、网路行为与感觉寻求之间的关系。网络使用率和网络行为越高的被试，其感觉寻求能力越强。结果表明，互联网依赖倾向于花更多的时间上网，使用电子邮件，上网冲浪，使用聊天室，使用MUD，并访问cybersex网站比非依赖互联网用户更频繁。然而，依赖得分显着较低的感觉寻求，刺激和冒险寻求，和兴奋寻求比非依赖互联网用户。得出的结论是，依赖者与互联网互动的动机计划不同的身体刺激和兴奋，通常特征寻求感觉的原型。
Past research on Internet dependence has suggested that those who are Internet dependent spend more time on-line, use chat rooms more frequently, play MUDs more often, and web surf more than nondependent Internet users, but few studies have examined how personality characteristics interact with Internet dependence. This study investigates how Internet usage, preferences, attitudes toward the Internet, and Internet behaviors are correlated with sensation seeking. It was predicted that participants who were higher in Internet usage and Internet behaviors would be higher in sensation seeking. Results indicated that Internet dependents tended to spend more time online, use E-mail, surf the web, use chat rooms, use MUDs, and visit cybersex sites more often than nondependent Internet users. However, dependents scored significantly lower on sensation seeking, thrill and adventure seeking, and excitement seeking than nondependent Internet users. It was concluded that dependents interact with the internet using a motivation scheme dissimilar to the physical thrill and excitement that typically characterize sensation seeking archetypes.
