BACKGROUND
This study aimed to determine the prevalence of internet addiction and its associated factors among medical students at Taibah University in Madinah, KSA.
METHODS
This cross-sectional study was conducted among 426 medical students from Taibah University, KSA. The 20-item Internet Addiction Test (IAT) was used to measure internet addiction.
RESULTS
Most participants (40.8%) used the internet for 5-7 hours/day and mainly for social networking (88.5%) and for downloading media files. Approximately, 6% were classified as internet addicts and 42% had occasional problems. Internet addiction was correlated negatively with performance. Internet addiction was significantly higher among those who used the internet for more than 10 hours/day ( < 0.001), those who used the internet mostly for downloading media files ( = 0.005) and for social networking ( = 0.005).
CONCLUSION
Internet addiction among medical students is relatively high. Preventative measures like awareness campaigns are recommended to minimize internet addiction among university students.
背景
本研究旨在确定沙特阿拉伯王国麦地那泰巴大学医学生的网络成瘾患病率及其相关因素。
方法
本横断面研究在沙特阿拉伯王国泰巴大学的426名医学生中进行。使用20项网络成瘾测试（IAT）来测量网络成瘾情况。
结果
大多数参与者（40.8%）每天上网5 - 7小时，主要用于社交网络（88.5%）和下载媒体文件。约6%被归类为网络成瘾者，42%有偶尔的问题。网络成瘾与学业成绩呈负相关。每天上网超过10小时的人（<0.001）、主要将网络用于下载媒体文件的人（=0.005）以及用于社交网络的人（=0.005）的网络成瘾率显著更高。
结论
医学生中的网络成瘾率相对较高。建议开展提高认识活动等预防措施，以尽量减少大学生中的网络成瘾现象。
