“…This study showed that positive parenting style was inversely correlated with Internet addiction, whereas negative parenting style had a positive relationship with Internet addiction. Consistent with existing studies, this study showed that parenting style is a signiﬁcant predictor of Internet addiction [ 12 , 14 , 26 , 30 ]. College students whose parents were overinvolved, showed rejection-type behaviors, or displayed insufficient emotional warmth were more likely to develop Internet addiction.…”

“…Indeed, in China, high parental monitoring (Ding et al, 2017), and in Israel, positive parentadolescent communication (Alt and Boniel-Nissim, 2018), have been found to be negatively associated with EIU using cross-sectional data. Overprotective parenting (Shivam et al, 2021) and overparenting (Love et al, 2022) has been associated with higher EIU in India and the US respectively, while parental warmth is identified as a protective factor in a cross-sectional Chinese setting (Zhang et al, 2019). In a cohort study from the Czech Republic, Lukavska et al (2020) found a combination of parental warmth and control (i.e.…”

PurposeUsing longitudinal data, this study aims to provide a greater understanding as to how parenting factors, including the employment of various disciplinary techniques, during a young person's early adolescence may contribute to excessive Internet use (EIU) in later adolescence.Design/methodology/approachEmploying “Problem Behaviour” theory (PBT) as a guiding framework, this study uses data from the Growing Up in Ireland ’98 Cohort to investigate the effect of proximal and distal parental influences, measured when children were 13 years old, on symptoms of EIU in young adults at 17 or 18 years. Multiple regression models control for other child and family factors, and separate models for males and females examine sex differentials.FindingsEstimation did not find a statistically significant association between internet-specific mediation practices in early adolescence and EIU in later adolescence. However, regularly playing games or sports together is a protective factor. Parent-adolescent conflict and spending time home alone are estimated as risk factors. How parents deal with misbehaviour is a strong predictor of EIU, with the direction of association dependent upon the type and frequency of discipline employed.Practical implicationsThe findings are of practical significance in informing parents of modifiable aspects of their behaviour that can lead to EIU.Originality/valueThe study applies a longitudinal modelling framework and considers the effect on EIU of various parental disciplinary techniques, representing a novel contribution.
