Most Norwegians are Internet users. We conducted a stratified probability sample study (Norway, 2007, age-group 16-74 years, N= 3,399, response rate 35.3%, 87.1% Internet users) to assess the prevalence of Internet addiction and at-risk Internet use by the Young Diagnostic Questionnaire (YDQ). The prevalence of Internet addiction (YDQ score 5-8) was 1.0% and an additional 5.2% were at-risk Internet users (YDQ score 3-4). Internet addiction and at-risk Internet use was strongly dependent on gender and age with highest prevalences among young males (16-29 years 4.1% and 19.0%, 30-39 years 3.3% and 10.7%). Logistic regression showed that male gender, young age, university level education, and an unsatisfactory financial situation were factors positively associated with "problematic Internet use" (at-risk and addicted use combined). Time spent on the Internet and prevalence of self-reported sleeping disorders, depression, and other psychological impairments increased linearly with YDQ score. Problematic Internet use clearly affects the lives of many people.
大多数挪威人都是互联网用户。我们开展了一项分层概率抽样研究（挪威，2007年，年龄组为16 - 74岁，N = 3399，应答率35.3%，互联网用户占87.1%），以通过青少年诊断问卷（YDQ）评估网络成瘾及有网络使用风险的情况。网络成瘾（YDQ得分5 - 8）的患病率为1.0%，另有5.2%为有网络使用风险的用户（YDQ得分3 - 4）。网络成瘾及有网络使用风险的情况在很大程度上取决于性别和年龄，在年轻男性中患病率最高（16 - 29岁为4.1%和19.0%，30 - 39岁为3.3%和10.7%）。逻辑回归分析表明，男性、年轻、大学学历以及经济状况不佳是与“有问题的网络使用”（有风险使用和成瘾使用合并）呈正相关的因素。上网时间以及自我报告的睡眠障碍、抑郁和其他心理障碍的患病率随YDQ得分呈线性增加。有问题的网络使用显然影响着许多人的生活。
