We present results from a cross-sectional study of the entire adolescent student population aged 14 to 18 years of the island of Kos, on the correlates between personality, illicit chemical substance use, and Internet abuse. Results demonstrate that adolescents who have used illicit substances and are abusing the Internet as well appear to share some common personality characteristics, namely those that are classified under the label of "psychoticism" in the Eysenck's personality model. An increase in the severity of pathological Internet use has been linked to increased chances of having used an illicit substance. Taking into account any common personality attributes, Internet addiction can still be useful as a predictor variable for substance use experiences. Future research should attempt to verify any biological common factors between chemical substances use and Internet abuse. Targeting the adolescent population that engages in increased Internet use may be of benefit for drug abuse prevention programs.
我们呈现了一项横断面研究的结果,该研究调查了科斯岛所有 14 至 18 岁的青少年学生,探讨了人格特质、非法化学物质使用和互联网滥用之间的相关性。结果表明,同时使用非法物质和滥用互联网的青少年似乎具有一些共同的人格特征,即艾森克人格模型中归类为“精神病态”的那些特征。病态互联网使用程度的增加与使用非法物质的机会增加有关。考虑到任何共同的人格属性,网络成瘾仍然可以作为物质使用经验的预测变量。未来的研究应该试图验证化学物质使用和互联网滥用之间是否存在任何生物学共同因素。针对那些过度使用互联网的青少年群体,可能有助于预防药物滥用。
