 What is internetsucht 什么是網(wǎng)癮

     Recent reports indicated that some on-line users were becoming addicted to the Internet in much the same way that others became addicted to drugs, alcohol, or gambling, which resulted in academic failure; reduced work performance, and even marital discord and separation. Clinical research on behavioral addictions has focused on compulsive gambling, overeating, and compulsive sexual behavior. Similar addiction models have been applied to technological overuse, computer dependency, excessive television viewing, and obsessive video game playing. However, the concept of addictive Internet use has not been empirically researched. Therefore, the purpose of this exploratory study was to investigate if Internet usage could be considered addictive and to identify the extent of problems created by such misuse.
     With the popularity and wide-spread promotion of the Internet, this study first sought to determine a set of criteria which would define addictive from normal Internet usage. If a workable set of criteria could be effective in diagnosis, then such criteria could be used in clinical treatment settings and facilitate future research on addictive Internet use. However, proper diagnosis is often complicated by the fact that the term addiction is not listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-Fourth Edition (DSM-IV; American Psychiatric Association, 1994). Of all the diagnoses referenced in the DSM-IV, Pathological Gambling was viewed as most akin to the pathological nature of Internet use. By using Pathological Gambling as a model, Internet addiction can be defined as an impulse-control disorder which does not involve an intoxicant. Therefore, this study developed a brief eight-item questionnaire referred to as a Diagnostic Questionnaire (DQ) which modified criteria for pathological gambling to provide a screening instrument for addictive Internet use:
     Do you feel preoccupied with the Internet (think about previous online activity or anticipate next on-line session)?
     Do you feel the need to use the Internet with increasing amounts of time in order to achieve satisfaction?
     Have you repeatedly made unsuccessful efforts to control, cut back, or stop Internet use?
     Do you feel restless, moody, depressed, or irritable when attempting to cut down or stop Internet use?
     Do you stay on-line longer than originally intended?
     Have you jeopardized or risked the loss of significant relationship, job, educational or career opportunity because of the Internet?
     Have you lied to family members, therapist, or others to conceal the extent of involvement with the Internet?
     Do you use the Internet as a way of escaping from problems or of relieving a dysphonic mood (e.g., feelings of helplessness, guilt, anxiety, and depression)?
     Respondents who answered "yes" to five or more of the criteria were classified as addicted Internet users (Dependents) and the remainders were classified as normal Internet users (Non-Dependents) for the purposes of this study. The cut off score of "five" was consistent with the number of criteria used for Pathological Gambling. Additionally, there are presently ten criteria for Pathological Gambling, although two were not used for this adaptation as they were viewed nonapplicable to Internet usage. Therefore, meeting five of eight rather than ten criteria was hypothesized to be a slightly more rigorous cut off score to differentiate normal from addictive Internet use. It should be noted that while this scale provides a workable measure of Internet addiction, further study is needed to determine its construct validity and clinical utility. It should also be noted that the term Internet is used to denote all types of on-line activity.
