Generalized problematic Internet use, depression, and explicit self-esteem: Evidence from the United Arab Emirates
Background
This study estimated the prevalence of generalized problematic Internet use (PIU) in a sample of college-aged young adults resident in the United Arab Emirates. It also assessed associations between PIU, Internet use, and two psychological outcomes, depression and explicit self-esteem.
Methodology
The study was cross-sectional. A sample of 706 participants (M = 20.71, SD = 2.13) completed measures of generalized PIU, depression, explicit self-esteem, and a range of demographic variables.
Results
PIU was common in this sample, so too was depression, and low self-esteem. PIU did not differ as a result of age, sex, level of education, or marital status. PIU and its factors were consistently predicted by elevated depressive symptoms, increasing duration of daily online time, and diminished ratings of self-esteem.
Conclusion
This study serves as the very first estimation of generalized PIU in a sample of young adults resident in this region of the world.
期刊介绍：
Neurology, Psychiatry & Brain Research publishes original papers and reviews in
biological psychiatry,
brain research,
neurology,
neuropsychiatry,
neuropsychoimmunology,
psychopathology,
psychotherapy.
The journal has a focus on international and interdisciplinary basic research with clinical relevance. Translational research is particularly appreciated. Authors are allowed to submit their manuscript in their native language as supplemental data to the English version.
Neurology, Psychiatry & Brain Research is related to the oldest German speaking journal in this field, the Centralblatt fur Nervenheilkunde, Psychiatrie und gerichtliche Psychopathologie, founded in 1878. The tradition and idea of previous famous editors (Alois Alzheimer and Kurt Schneider among others) was continued in modernized form with Neurology, Psychiatry & Brain Research. Centralblatt was a journal of broad scope and relevance, now Neurology, Psychiatry & Brain Research represents a journal with translational and interdisciplinary perspective, focusing on clinically oriented research in psychiatry, neurology and neighboring fields of neurosciences and psychology/psychotherapy with a preference for biologically oriented research including basic research. Preference is given for papers from newly emerging fields, like clinical psychoimmunology/neuroimmunology, and ideas.
