目的:了解台灣南部地區青少年學生網路成癮之相關因素,及其對身心健康影響。材料與方法:分層隨機選取台南縣市八所高中職學校學生共1,001人,經由結構式問卷收集資料,將具上網經驗994人進行資料分析,以「中文網路成癮量表」總分排序前5%(共54人)定義為網路成癮高危險群,進行成癮之相關因素與身心健康關係之分析。結果:對數複迴歸分析發現:男性、高職生、神經質人格特質強、住宿處有人限制上網等為高中職生較易成為網路成癮高危險群者之顯著影響因素。並發現網路成癮高危險群其心理健康狀況欠佳的比率顯著高於未成癮者。結論:多重因素與網路成癮高危險群之形成有關,本研究結果可提供學校教師及校護瞭解高中職學生網路使用狀況及影響網路成癮因素,作為探討青少年過度上網問題輔導方案之參考。
Objective: The aim was to identify factors related to Internet addiction and their impact on the physical and mental health of adolescent students in southern Taiwan. Materials and Methods: 1,001 students from eight schools in Tainan area were recruited via a stratified random sampling. All of them were asked to complete a structured questionnaire anonymously. The definition used for the high-risk group of Internet addiction students was the 5% of the students whose total scores were the highest ranked according to the ”Chinese Internet Addiction Scale-Revised”. The results were analyzed by SPSS 10.0 for Windows. Results: The average time spent on the Internet by this high-risk group was 30.9 hours per week (SD=29.1 hours). A logistic regression analysis showed that the significant related factors that emerged as common correlates for Internet addiction were: male; a vocational high school student; a tendency towards traits associated with a neurotic personality, and finally that the student had been set limits for use of the Internet. Participants who at high risk of being Internet addicted were thus more likely to have poor mental health. Conclusions: The results should provide teachers and nurses with an understanding of the significant factors that are related to Internet addiction among adolescent students, and thus this will allow the development of adequate consultation programs.
