Abstract
This review explains and demonstrates certain factors and the formation of internet addiction in adolescents. The aim of this review was to find the Internet addiction concept, the mental status of the problematic use of the internet, the psycho-pathological mechanism in internet addiction, and neuroimaging studies on internet-addiction-related changes in brain activities. The methods in this article used the database Google Scholar to indicate the relationships between risk personality and internet addiction, supported by the adolescents’ samples from the recent research. At the end of this review, we conclude that poor Internet use is linked to various negative psychological effects on teens. Understanding the variables that may lead to Internet misuse might help lessen its detrimental impacts.
