Abstract

This article discusses the relationship between internet addiction, which is a widespread problem, and ethical action and sensitivity changes that are expected to arise due to usage of internet and virtual world. It is aimed to demonstrate that moral development stages and ethical actions can change in the light of evaluation of differantiation of communication in the internet and virtual world from the actual social life. Furthermore, factors such as uncontrolled action and facilitation of accessibility to pleasure have been theoretically shown to facilitate internet dependency.

Abstract

Bu makalede yaygınlığı artan internet ve sanal dünya kullanımına bağlı olarak ortaya çıkacağı düşünü-len etik eylem ve duyarlılık değişiklikleri ile artan bir sorun olan internet bağımlılığı ilişkisi ele alınmış-tır. İnternet ve sanal dünyada iletişimin, gerçek sosyal hayattan farklılaşmasının değerlendirilmesi ışığında ahlaki gelişim basamaklarının ve etik eylemin değişebileceğinin gösterilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Ayrıca denetimsiz eylem ve hazza ulaşım kolaylığı gibi etkenlerin internet bağımlılığını kolaylaştıracağı teorik olarak gösterilmeye çalışılmıştır.
