Journal Title: Current Problems of Psychiatry - Year 2014, Vol 15, Issue 2
Abstract
The aim of the study is to answer the following question: are there any dependencies, if any, between the selected forms of the young people’s activity on the Internet and the existence of conflicts with parents, experience of psychological violence from them and alcohol addiction of a family member. The examined group comprised the total of 67 students aged 20-25 years, examined using the Internet Addiction Diagnostic Test (KBUI) designed by B. Pawłowska and E. Potembska and the Questionnaire designed by E. Potembska. Conclusions. 1. Alcohol addiction of a family member is a variable, which is most strongly connected with the student activity on the Internet. 2. To a lesser degree than alcoholism, online activity is connected to experiencing physical violence within the family, whereas in the smallest degree to the prevalence of conflicts. 3. For students from dysfunctional families, online activity is a way to satisfy primarily the need for interaction and for self-esteem.
