This research attempts to investigate the motivations of Internet usage, activities, and causes of Internet addiction for high school students. The drivers of reduction in Internet usage are subsequently explored for feasible actions including two dimensions: internal self-efficacy and external stress. After literature review, we construct empirical framework and propose notions of research hypotheses for further validation. Our research viewpoints are verfied through examining 1000 effective questionnaires responded by students from three high schools of Yilan country in October 2006. The research findings indicate that data search, Internet chat, and software download are most popular activities in high school campus. Meanwhile, Internet use-level, social actitives, sexual satisfaction, and stress relief are most essential motivations to casue students high-level Internet addiction. Relating to the drivers of reduction in Internet usage, study and exam stress is the best representative of external stress; and moreover, self-determination, self-dissatisfaction with study results, and no requirements on Internet use are critical elements of internal self-efficacy. |
