互联网是一项影响世界的新技术，它为用户提供了许多好处。与此同时，互联网也产生了负面影响。有些人沉迷于互联网，无法控制他们的使用，并危及就业和人际关系。有人提出“网瘾”的概念来解释不可控的、有害的使用这种技术。过度使用互联网的症状与用于诊断其他成瘾的标准进行了比较。特别是，由于标准重叠，病态赌博被比作有问题的互联网使用。本文建议对网络成瘾的诊断标准进行一些修改。
The Internet is a new technology that has impacted the world and provided many benefits to its users. At the same time the Internet has had negative ramifications. Some people are becoming preoccupied with the Internet, are unable to control their use, and are jeopardizing employment and relationships. The concept of "Internet addiction" has been proposed as an explanation for uncontrollable, damaging use of this technology. Symptoms of excessive Internet use are compared to the criteria used to diagnose other addictions. In particular, pathological gambling is compared to problematic Internet use because of overlapping criteria. This article suggests some modifications to the diagnostic criteria that has been commonly proposed for Internet addiction.
