INTRODUCTION
Good afternoon, dear audience of the First Russian Channel, good afternoon, dear guests! I am glad to welcome you to our studio. And today we'll discuss really urgent, up-to-date and topical problem "Internet addiction as a real threat to a young generation". First of all, I'd like to welcome our dear guests: they are the headteacher of Gymnasium № 17 Osmanov Daniyal Arsenovich, psychologist, Doctor of Psychological Science Cakhaeva Anjelica Amirovna, and of course our independent expert, journalist, the host of the programme "The Time" Irada Zeinalova. Let's welcome them!
The Internet is considered as one of the most important foundations of the modern society. Its creation and introduction to the world during the late 19th century has brought about a large heap of development as to how humans perceive the importance of communication, connection and information. Ever since the time it has been released for public use, the Internet took into account several points of development and evolutional advancements that redefined the way humans operated with their everyday activities. While time spent online can be hugely productive, compulsive Internet use can interfere with daily life, work, and relationships. When you feel more comfortable with your online friends than your real ones, or you can’t stop yourself from playing games, gambling, or compulsively checking your smartphone, tablet, or other mobile device—even when it has negative consequences in your life—then you may be using the Internet too much.
The Internet provides a constant, ever-changing source of information and entertainment, and can be accessed from most smartphones as well as tablets, laptops, and desktop computers. Email, blogs, social networks, instant messaging, and message boards allow for both public and anonymous communication about any topic. But how much is too much Internet usage?
Each person’s Internet use is different. You might need to use the Internet extensively for your work, for example, or you might rely heavily on social networking sites to keep in touch with faraway family and friends. Spending a lot of time online only becomes a problem when it absorbs too much of your time, causing you to neglect your relationships, your work, school, or other important things in your life. If you keep repeating compulsive Internet behavior despite the negative consequences in your offline life, then it’s time to strike a new balance. Nowadays, surfing the internet is a simple way of spending time just like going to the cinema or café. Because internet is informative, easily available and of course entertaining. However, some people use internet resources non-stop and addictively.
So, what is the Internet addiction? «Internet addiction» means spending more time on line by ignoring some other aspects of life. Internet Addiction, Internet Addiction Disorder, Compulsive Internet Use, Computer Addiction, Internet Dependence and Problematic Internet Use — all these words are alternative terms for Internet Addiction. Anyone with access to internet can become addicted to it irrespective of gender or age. Internet addiction makes people forget about their responsibilities. They neglect household duties, cooking, cleaning and above all they forget to take care of themselves. Children and teenagers get addicted to online activities like multi-user games, instant messaging, pornography and chat rooms. The children of working parents and vulnerable children are easily getting addicted to internet. Children and teenagers who are shy with friends are often attracted to online communities for making new friendships and new identities.
The aim of the project work is to study psychological side of internet addiction, its main behavior and physical symptoms and also to study the ways of treatment and prevention of internet addiction.
The practical significance of the work is that in our work there will be introduced prophylactic programme, recommendations for prevention and treatment of internet addiction among young generation. The work also presents the results of a survey conducted in one of the schools of our city.
The results can be used as practical recommendations for parents and can be read on special psychological courses.
So, let's see video about it.
Information from the video:
The causes of the Internet addiction could be many. The main reason why Internet addiction is so common is the sense of anonymity it provides. It is another way by which people can get out of their worries and problems; they can share their feelings and expressions with their online friends without even having to make any regrets or confrontations. This helps a lot of people getting away from the stress, depression or phobic problems.
