在过去的几年里，电脑的过度使用已经成为一个严重的问题。信息时代的一个方面是由先进的信息技术引起的新问题，包括网瘾、赌博等等。这些基于互联网的问题在包括韩国在内的许多国家都出现过。为了解决这一问题，韩国政府推出了各种旨在治疗青少年网瘾的项目，其中最著名的是Jump Up网络救援学校，这是一个旨在治疗网瘾或网络游戏成瘾儿童的营地。在本研究中，我们回顾了这个训练营计划，并简要回顾了有关网络成瘾和习惯理论的文献。此外，我们为韩国政府和其他国家、从业者和研究人员提供了一些有用的启示。我们也期望本研究的结果能让我们更好地理解基于个案研究的网瘾治疗方案如何被视为一个新兴的互联网相关研究领域。
Computer overuse has been a serious problem for the past several years. One aspect of the information age has been the novel concerns deriving from advanced IT technology-which include Internet addiction, gambling, and so on. These Internet-based problems have emerged in many countries, including South Korea. In an effort to solve this problem, the South Korean government has created a variety of programs designed to cure teenagers' Internet addictions, most notably the Jump Up Internet Rescue School, a camp designed to cure Internet-addicted or online game-addicted children. In this study, we review this boot-camp program and present a brief review of the literature concerning Internet addiction and habit theory. Additionally, we provide some useful implications for the Korean government and other countries, practitioners, and researchers. It is also anticipated that the findings from this study will provide us with a better understanding of how case-study-based research into Internet addiction curative programs can be regarded as a burgeoning field of Internet-related research.
