背景与目的新冠肺炎大流行及控制措施可能增加了人们滥用成瘾物质的风险和成瘾行为。方法对6 416名中国人进行了一项关于新冠肺炎大流行与成瘾行为关系的初步在线调查。结果在新冠肺炎大流行期间，46.8%的被调查者报告对互联网的依赖增加，16.6%的被调查者网络使用时间更长。严重网络依赖的患病率(4.3%)比新冠肺炎大流行前(3.5%)上升了23%，依赖程度上升的频率是下降的20倍(60%比3%)。再次酗酒和戒烟的比例相对较高，分别为19%和25%。同样，32%的经常饮酒者和20%的经常吸烟者在此次新冠肺炎危机期间增加了饮酒量。结论和科学意义：在这场与微博相关的危机中，这三种应对行为(互联网、饮酒和吸烟)似乎增加了物质使用障碍和网瘾的风险。(Am J Addit 2020；00：00-00)
Background and Objectives The COVID-19 pandemic and control measures may have increased the risk of abusing addictive substances as well as addictive behaviors.Methods We present an initial online survey in 6416 Chinese about the relation between the COVID-19 pandemic and addictive behavior in China.Results During the COVID-19 pandemic, 46.8% of the subjects reported increased dependence on internet use, and 16.6% had longer hours of internet use. The prevalence (4.3%) of severe internet dependence rose up to 23% than that (3.5%) before the COVID-19 pandemic occurred, and their dependence degree rose 20 times more often than being declined (60% vs 3%). Relapses to abuse from alcohol and smoking abstinence were relatively common at 19% and 25%, respectively. Similarly, 32% of regular alcohol drinkers and 20% of regular smokers increased their usage amount during the pandemic.Conclusion and Scientific Significance These three coping behaviors (internet, alcohol, and smoking) during this COVID-19-related crisis appear to have increased the risk for substance use disorders and internet addiction.
