“…Traditionally, the term addiction has been associated with psychoactive substances such as alcohol and tobacco; however, behaviours including the use of the Internet have more recently been identified as being addictive (Sim et al 2012 ). The concept of IA is generally characterised as an impulse disorder by which an individual experiences intense preoccupation with using the Internet, difficulty managing time on the Internet, becoming irritated if disturbed whilst online, and decreased social interaction in the real world (Tikhonov and Bogoslovskii 2015 ). These features were initially proposed by Young ( 1998 ) based on the criteria for pathological gambling (Yellowlees and Marks 2007 ), and have since been adapted for consideration within the DSM-5.…”

With Internet connectivity and technological advancement increasing dramatically in recent years, “Internet addiction” (IA) is emerging as a global concern. However, the use of the term ‘addiction’ has been considered controversial, with debate surfacing as to whether IA merits classification as a psychiatric disorder as its own entity, or whether IA occurs in relation to specific online activities through manifestation of other underlying disorders. Additionally, the changing landscape of Internet mobility and the contextual variations Internet access can hold has further implications towards its conceptualisation and measurement. Without official recognition and agreement on the concept of IA, this can lead to difficulties in efficacy of diagnosis and treatment. This paper therefore provides a critical commentary on the numerous issues of the concept of “Internet addiction”, with implications for the efficacy of its measurement and diagnosticity.

The use of the internet to access information has become a necessity and continues to increase to affect lives positively and negatively. This study aims to determine the risk factors associated with internet use in high school students in Banda Aceh. This study uses a quantitative method with a crosssectional approach. The population was all high school students in the Kuta Alam District, Banda Aceh, amounting to 3,860 students. The sample amounted to 362 students selected using the Slovin formula with the Proportional Random Sampling technique. This study found that the factors that have a significant relationship with internet use in high school students are school, family, physical health, and mental health factors. While the aspect of family economic status has no relationship with internet use in high school students. The mental health factor is the most strongly associated with internet use among high school students in Banda Aceh.

“…The most common problem is carpal tunnel syndrome, which damages the nerves of the hand because it often works long-term on the computer. Human reactions to increased intensity of electromagnetic fields can mainly cause damage to the immune, endocrine, and central nervous systems, which support essential signaling regulatory functions to keep the body in a state of homeostasis (Tikhonov & Bogoslovskii, 2015).…”

In today's time, people spend more time on the Internet for long hours due to the increasing number of exciting Internet applications and the convenience of life provided by such applications. Internet use can be at risk if its use is excessive and can cause dependence and addiction. Suppose internet users have experienced addiction or dependence. In that case, it can cause risk factors that are harmful to mental and physical health, poor school achievement, relationships with family/parents that are less harmonious, and excessive household income conditions. Therefore, it is essential to understand the risk factors arising from excessive internet use. So as to raise awareness about health issues currently affecting young people in vulnerable groups. The literature review of this article was obtained from the online databases Science Direct, SpringerLink, ProQuest, EBSCO, and Pubmed in the publication year 2015-2020. Evidence shows that most research articles explain a lot about the risk factors for someone experiencing excessive internet use due to mental health problems and relationship problems with family/parents that are negative. Risk factors that influence Internet use in adolescents have been described in many previous studies. However, little is known about how many risk factors influence internet use in teens. Therefore, this article will provide a number of critical gaps in the evidence base to be used as a source of information on the development of appropriate interventions and can provide a preventive strategy to reduce excessive Internet use in adolescents.
