Abstract



İnternet bağımlılığı her yaştan bireyleri
etkileyen ciddi bir problemdir. İnternet bağımlılığının birçok nedeni vardır.
Bu nedenlerden biri çevrimiçi sosyal etkileşimdir. İnternette sosyal etkileşim,
ergenleri internete bağımlı kılan güçlü ve en yaygın aktivitedir. Çevrimiçi
sosyal etkileşim, arkadaş edinme ve kişisel bir başarı kazanma ihtiyacını
kolaylaştırır. Bu nedenle, bireyler internette uzun süre vakit
geçirmektedirler. Bu çalışma, ergenlerde çevrimiçi sosyal etkileşimin internet
bağımlılığı üzerindeki etkilerini belirlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu araştırma
Purbalingga/Endonezya bölgesinde yapıldı. Araştırma, 15-18 yaş aralığındaki 70
ergenle gerçekleştirildi. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak, Çevrimiçi
Sosyal Etkileşim Ölçeği ve İnternet Bağımlılığı Ölçeği kullanıldı. Verilerin
normal dağılım gösterip göstermediğini test etmek için Kolmogorov Smirnov Normallik
Testi yapıldı. Test sonuçları, elde edilen verilerin normal dağılım gösterdiğini
ortaya koydu. Çalışmada regresyon analizi kullanıldı. Araştırmanın sonuçları,
çevrimiçi sosyal etkileşimin (R2=0.351; p<0.05) ergenlerdeki
internet bağımlılığını anlamlı bir biçimde yordadığını göstermektedir. Yapılan
regresyon analizinde, çevrimiçi sosyal etkileşimin internet bağımlılığındaki
toplam varyansın %35.1’ini açıkladığı belirlenmiştir. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına
göre, ergenlerdeki internet bağımlılığını azaltmak için çevrimiçi sosyal etkileşimin
azaltılması gerekmektedir. Buna rağmen, ergenlerdeki internet bağımlılığı
sadece çevrimiçi sosyal etkileşimden kaynaklanmamaktadır. Bu bağımsız
değişkenin dışında söz konusu bağımlı değişkeni yordayan diğer faktörlerin
oranı %64.9’dur.
