本研究的目的是调查中国中小学生网络成瘾的患病率，并调查不同使用方式的网络使用者的网络成瘾情况。这些数据来自中国全国儿童研究（NCSC），其中24，013名四年级至九年级的学生来自中国31个省的100个县。只有54.2%的学生上网。根据Young’s诊断问卷（YDQ）的八项标准，总样本中网络成瘾的患病率为6.3%，其中互联网使用者的患病率为11.7%。在互联网使用者中，男性（14.8%）和农村学生（12.1%）报告网络成瘾高于女性（7.0%）和城市学生（10.6%）。小学生的网络成瘾率（11.5%）与中学生的网络成瘾率（11.9%）无显著性差异。四个地理区域（9.6%，11.5%，12.3%，11.1%）之间的差异无统计学意义，其特点是经济，健康，教育和社会环境水平不同。随着互联网使用频率和每周上网时间的增加，上网成瘾者的比例也在增加。从上网地点和目的来看，经常在网吧上网的青少年（18.1%）和经常玩网络游戏的青少年（22.5%）的上网成瘾比例最高。
The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of Internet addiction in a nationally representative sample of Chinese elementary and middle school students and to investigate Internet addiction among Internet users with different usages. The data were from the National Children's Study of China (NCSC) in which 24,013 fourth- to ninth-grade students were recruited from 100 counties in 31 provinces in China. Only 54.2% of the students had accessed the Internet. According to the criteria of Young's Diagnostic Questionnaire (YDQ), an eight-item instrument, the prevalence of Internet addiction in the total sample was 6.3%, and among Internet users was 11.7%. Among the Internet users, males (14.8%) and rural students (12.1%) reported Internet addiction more than females (7.0%) and urban students (10.6%). The percentage of Internet addicts in elementary school students (11.5%) was not significantly lower than the percentage of middle school students (11.9%). There was no statistically significant difference between the four geographical regions (9.6%, 11.5%, 12.3%, 11.1%) characterized by different levels of economy, health, education, and social environment. As the frequency of Internet use and time spent online per week increased, the percentage of Internet addicts increased. When considering the location and purpose of Internet use, the percentage of Internet addicts was highest in adolescents typically surfing in Internet cafes (18.1%) and playing Internet games (22.5%).
