In this study, we tested the hypothesis that the Internet can serve as a valuable tool assisting adolescents in pursuing the developmentally-related need for self concept clarity. Participants in the study were 278 adolescents (48.5% girls; 7th-9th graders) who completed questionnaires relating to their levels of Internet use, Internet addiction, ego development, self consciousness, self-concept clarity, and personal demographic data.

O iʻuga o suʻesuʻega e lagolagoina le manatu lautele o le tulaga o le tagata lava ia, o le manino o le tagata lava ia, e fesoʻotaʻi ma le initaneti ma le soʻona faʻaoga. O le mea lea, e fautuaina ai o lumanaʻi suʻesuʻega i luga o talavou 'Initaneti soʻoga faʻaaoga tatau tatau ona faʻaaogaina lelei ae le o le tele faʻatulagaina faʻataʻitaʻiga ma fua ina ia mafai ai ona suʻesuʻe lelei i se amioga ma ona, a le o le lelei pe le lelei, aʻafiaga. A differentiation is proposed between over-users, heavy users, and addicted users. Namely, over-users and heavy users utilize the Internet for age-related and modern-life-related purposes, and hence should not be labeled as addicted. Implications for the measurement, definition, and treatment of Internet over-use are suggested.
