Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the internet addiction tendency of University students. A self-reported questionnaire was completed by 354 students in the G city from March 15 to May 22, 2017. The data were analyzed by exploratory factor analysis, Pearson's correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis using the SPSS 12.0 program. Factors affecting the internet addiction tendency were using time of internet, consciousness of information ethics(soundness to internet use), self-control(p<0.05). Accordingly, it is necessary to develop mediator program in order to preventive internet addiction to enhance of consciousness of information ethics and control using time of internet and self-control.

본 연구는 대학생의 인터넷 중독성향에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위해 실시한 단면연구이다. 2017년 3월 15일부터 5월 22일까지 자기기입식 설문조사방법을 이용하여 370명을 대상으로 편의 추출하여 자기기입식 설문지를 배부한 후 최종 354부의 자료를 분석하였다. 분석방법은 정보윤리의식 도구의 구성개념 타당성 검증을 위해 구성요소의 하부항목에 대한 탐색적 요인분석을 실시하였고, 측정변수들이 인터넷 중독성향에 미치는 영향을 살펴보기 위해 각 변수간의 상관관계를 Pearson 상관분석으로 검증 후, 단계선택법을 이용한 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과, 인터넷 이용시간, 정보윤리의식의 하위요인인 인터넷 이용의 건전성, 자기통제력이 인터넷 중독성향에 각각 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 대학생의 인터넷 중독을 예방하기 위하여 정보윤리의식의 배양 및 인터넷 이용시간과 자기통제력을 조절할 수 있는 다양한 중재 프로그램의 개발 및 운영이 필요할 것으로 사료된다
