The recent inevitable development in information
technologies has influenced many aspects of our lives. While internet has eased
and speeded up the access to information, enhanced and diversified our
communication opportunities, and facilitated our lives in areas like commerce
and education, by taking the center place in our lives, it has concurrently
raised some unfavorable issues like excessive use and preoccupation. Especially
youngsters and university students are vulnerable to adverse effects of internet
use; the excessive amount of time they spend on internet has led to neglect of
other items in their lives, inefficiency and failure at school and work, and
lack of satisfaction with life as a result of isolation and loneliness. Thus,
internet addiction well deserves further analysis for the harm it causes on
younger generations, specifically. The purpose of this study is to analyze the
relationship between internet addictions of students and some miscellaneous
variables (social life satisfaction, presence or absence of a girlfriend,
school satisfaction etc.). The participants comprised 354 post-secondary
students enrolling at a vocational college during the spring semester of
2015-2016 Academic Year. "Internet Addiction Test" was utilized for
data compilation. t test was used to examine the differences between variables.
The results obtained showed that students with unsatisfactory social life felt
relaxed with the increase on internet use, those with a girlfriend had higher
addiction levels, and finally students who were not happy at school reported a
tendency towards more internet use and eventually neglected their
responsibilities and daily work.
