ЦИЉЕВИ:
Сврха ове студије била је да се потражи бољи увид у то да ли је онлине медиј или онлине активност важнија у односу на прекомјерну онлине употребу. Није јасно да ли су људи који проводе превелику количину времена на интернету ангажовани у општем интернету или је прекомјерна употреба интернета повезана са специфичним активностима.
МЕТОДЕ:
Perceived changes in Internet use habits as function of hypothetical accessibility of favorite sites were investigated in young adults. University students (n = 130, mean age = 20.6 years) who had (on average) spent over 20 hours a week on the Internet for at least nine years completed a survey. The most favored online activities and expected quality of life without Internet access were also investigated.
РЕЗУЛТАТИ:
Findings revealed that social networking was by far the most popular online activity, and that lack of access to their preferred online activities would drop by 65% (as measured by perceived Internet usage). Approximately one in six participants (16%) claimed they would not even switch on the computer if access to their favorite online activities were unavailable. In relation to a hypothetical question about the quality of life without Internet access, the responses were normally distributed (rather than skewed).
ЗАКЉУЧАК:
These results show that time spent with Internet activity is not random and/or generalized, but appears more focused. Attraction or addiction on Internet to one or more specific behavior(s) may be a better way forward in the quest for better understanding excessive human behavior in the online environment.
