Internet is essential part of everyday life and certainly facilitate it on several levels. It is a helpful information tool, and knowledge, but its unlimited range often is risky for users. The behaviors and outcomes of internet abuse have already been well‐documented in the literature; less is known about the role of personal factors that reinforce internet addiction. Based on the Interaction of Person‐Affect‐Cognition‐Execution model (I‐PACE), the current study investigates the role of trait emotional intelligence and self‐esteem, age, and gender in relation to addictive internet behaviors. We conducted an online investigation among respondents. The participants were Italian university students who voluntarily completed the Abuse Internet Addiction scale (UADI) and the Rosenberg Self‐esteem scale. Path analysis results revealed that both trait emotional intelligence and self‐esteem had a protective direct effect on addictive internet behaviors. Age negatively affects addictive internet behaviors; younger are more likely to develop addictive internet behaviors than older individuals. Finally, we did not find an effect of gender on addictive internet behaviors. Our results suggest the need to develop prevention plans for addictive internet behaviors and educational programs to increase emotional intelligence and self‐esteem components to help younger to improve interpersonal and emotional management skills to better handle their internet use.

成瘾的互联网行为:特质情商、自尊、年龄和性别的作用

互联网是日常生活的重要组成部分,当然可以在几个层面上促进它。它是一种有用的信息工具和知识,但其无限的范围对用户来说往往是有风险的。互联网滥用的行为和结果已经在文献中得到充分记录;人们对加剧网络成瘾的个人因素的作用知之甚少。基于人-情感-认知-执行模型(I-PACE)的相互作用,本研究调查了特质情商和自尊、年龄和性别与成瘾网络行为的关系。我们在受访者中进行了在线调查。参与者是自愿完成滥用网络成瘾量表(UADI)和罗森伯格自尊量表的意大利大学生。路径分析结果表明,特质情商和自尊对成瘾的网络行为都有直接的保护作用。年龄会对成瘾的互联网行为产生负面影响;年轻人比老年人更有可能发展成瘾的互联网行为。最后,我们没有发现性别对网络成瘾行为的影响。我们的研究结果表明,需要制定成瘾性互联网行为的预防计划和教育计划,以提高情商和自尊成分,帮助年轻人提高人际关系和情绪管理技能,以更好地处理他们的互联网使用。年轻人比老年人更有可能发展成瘾的互联网行为。最后,我们没有发现性别对网络成瘾行为的影响。我们的研究结果表明,需要制定成瘾性互联网行为的预防计划和教育计划,以提高情商和自尊成分,帮助年轻人提高人际关系和情绪管理技能,以更好地处理他们的互联网使用。年轻人比老年人更有可能发展成瘾的互联网行为。最后,我们没有发现性别对网络成瘾行为的影响。我们的研究结果表明,需要制定成瘾性互联网行为的预防计划和教育计划,以提高情商和自尊成分,帮助年轻人提高人际关系和情绪管理技能,以更好地处理他们的互联网使用。
