This study examines the relationships among youths' leisure time use and its influence on online behavior and Internet addiction. Positive and negative support from parents were used as independent variables, adolescent online behavior and Internet addiction as dependent variables, youth's leisure time use as a mediator, and gender and student status were moderators. Mediators of the youth's leisure time included their amount of sleep, time spent on leisure activities, exercise days, time spent conversing with parents, and time spent on volunteer activities. This research used raw data on adolescents extracted from the 1,952 surveys of the Children and Adolescents' Living Conditions and Welfare Needs Survey collected by the New Taipei City government in 2021. The analysis was conducted using a Structural Equation Model. The result shows adolescent online behavior is largely affected by both positive and negative parental support, amount of sleep, time spent on leisure activities, and days of exercise, while Internet addiction is affected by both positive and negative parental support, amount of sleep, time spent on leisure activities, time spent talking to parents, and time spent on volunteer activities. The researchers provide conclusions and give suggestions accordingly.. |
