What age group is the most addicted to the Internet?

Adolescents aged 12-16 years.

According to the Statistical Report on the Development of China's Internet Network, as of December 2017, the scale of China's Internet users reached 100 million, of which the student group was the largest, accounting for.

Adolescents aged 12-16 are at high risk of Internet addiction. Although there is a lack of data from large epidemiological surveys, previous studies have shown that the prevalence of gaming addiction is about, with some extreme cases.

It should be junior high school and high school, because the family will definitely buy computers for children's learning, electronic products and the like, and children have no self-control to play more and more, so this age group is a frequent group of Internet addiction.

When it comes to Internet addiction, most people's first reaction is teenagers, but in recent years, there has been an "aging" trend in the "Internet addiction group", and the number of "silver-haired and low-headed people" is increasing. Over-reliance on social networking and online groups, swiping mobile phones day and night, and not thinking about tea and dinner, has become the daily life of some elderly people.

Why did the elderly Ling Li Liquid become addicted to the Internet?

First, biological factors. Behavioral addiction shares many similarities with substance addiction, both involving a mesolimbic dopamine reward system related to human motivation. The system is designed to make us feel happy and happy.

Second, psychological factors. People who are prone to behavioral addiction may have problems such as impulsivity, introversion, poor emotional regulation, anxiety, depression and disturbance, low self-esteem, low life satisfaction, and perceived stress.

Third, family social factors. Lack of social support and interpersonal communication, disharmony in family relationships, singleness or divorce can exacerbate "internet addiction."

Teenagers are very curious, so it is not uncommon for many teenagers to be attracted to the Internet.

The reason why teenagers are prone to developing Internet addiction:

First of all, because the family does not care enough for the child, the child's heart changes, and he always feels that no one cares about him, and he can vent his emotions from the Internet, which will make teenagers addicted to the Internet and form Internet addiction for a long time.

There are also adolescent influences, social pressures, poor online supervision, and individual adolescent causes.

Internet addicted adolescents are self-isolated, have little prosocial behavior, lack interest in many things, are depressed, lack pursuit and ambition, want to be accepted and recognized by others, but are afraid of rejection. They often deal with difficulties and setbacks in immature ways such as "withdrawal", "avoidance", "self-blame", and "fantasies".

According to statistics, among children with severe Internet addiction, more than 70% of families have the problem of disharmony between husband and wife, more than 60% of families have the problem that their parents' educational views are completely different, and more than 50% of children say that they do not feel warmth in the family. Therefore, the author believes that the problem of Internet addiction is more of an educational problem, and it cannot be solved by sending addicted children to the so-called ** institutions.

Internet addiction is just a child's problem, not a real disease. What children need more is the care and help of parents and society.

1.Some elderly people go online in order to maintain family feelings and acquaintances, in order to be able to laugh and speak the same language with younger generations, so as not to have too big a gap, and some elderly people also learn to use mobile phones to play games, contact areas they never understand, and eventually like many young people, cause their own Internet addiction.

2.There may be a push from capitalist forces behind this. Elderly mobile phones are on silent and without any operation.

Some apps will naturally pop up some ads, and the sound is very loud, which forces many elderly people to watch, although some can be turned off through the mobile phone settings, but can not be completely blocked, in the long run, it will form a habit.

3.Some urban elderly people have more and more leisure time after launching the workplace, and their children have their own families, not always able to be with their parents, so it is easier to produce a sense of loneliness, it just so happens that the colorful content on the Internet can become a kind of spiritual sustenance for them, bringing them a new life, so that they have a sense of dependence.

4.The elderly have poor self-discipline, I believe this is also a problem for many young people, "go out to exercise fitness" or "brush your mobile phone at home" I believe that many young people will choose the latter, the fatigue of going out to exercise is far less than the comfort of brushing your mobile phone at home, although they know the pros and cons of both, then compared with young people, the elderly have more physical function decline, and they are more likely to have a sense of fatigue, and they are more inclined to choose online entertainment.

The charm of the Internet is indeed great, long-term swiping of mobile phones is like taking drugs, it will bring you a short-term sense of mental pleasure and excitement, making it difficult for you to forget this feeling, once you have poor self-control, it is easy to fall into it and be harmed, and "excessive Internet addiction" to the elderly is significantly more harmful than young people:

1.The most direct is the harm to the eyes, mild dry eyes, visual fatigue, severe neurasthenia, shoulder, neck and back pain, loss of appetite, etc. It goes without saying that the physical condition of the elderly is obviously not as good as that of the young people, so the harm to their physical health is naturally greater.

2.In terms of mental dependence, the elderly are significantly stronger than the younger. As the elderly get older, they may suffer various shocks, such as the death of an old friend or wife, and the coldness with their children, etc., and the loneliness will be more intense, and this loneliness will deepen their dependence on something or someone they already have.

For example, if he likes a certain anchor, he will feel uncomfortable if he can't see it, so in this case, someone asks him to reward or 'run out', and the elderly are not easy to distinguish the authenticity, so it is easy to be fooled. Not only property damage, but also mental blows, and this blow is far more severe than that of young people.

3.Some elderly people pay attention to health and physical health, which is a good thing, but they are easily affected by some articles in the short ** and circle of friends**, superstitious about various home remedies, and do not go to regular hospitals when they are sick, which leads to delays and deepening of the condition.

Therefore, it is urgent to guide the correct concept and help the elderly solve the problem of Internet addiction.

There are many reasons why the elderly are becoming more and more addicted to the Internet. First of all, with the popularization of the Internet and the development of informatization, people's lives are becoming more and more dependent on the Internet. Especially for the elderly, their physical health has deteriorated, and many people choose to pass the time at home through the Internet.

Secondly, many elderly people have less contact with family or friends, feel lonely, and look for social interaction and a sense of belonging in the online world. In addition, some older people lack effective time planning and have no restrictions and self-control over Internet use. The high incidence of adverse consequences of Internet addiction has attracted a lot of attention, and people should not ignore it, and should pay attention to and care about the cyber security and health of the elderly.

There are many reasons for Internet addiction in the elderly, mainly in the following aspects:

More free time: As older people get older, their work and social circles gradually decrease, resulting in relatively free time. At this time, the Internet has become a way for the elderly to spend time and enrich their lives.

Social needs: Older people have different social needs than younger people, and they need companionship, care, and communication more. Whereas, the internet provides a convenient channel of communication through which it is easy to communicate and share with people.

Lack of family affection and love: Some elderly Zheng people face the problem of lack of family affection and care in their later years, and the sense of loneliness and helplessness increases. At this point, going online becomes a way for them to seek comfort and affection.

Low level of cognition and technology: Sun Zaosong, a very elderly person, has a relatively low level of knowledge and technology of the Internet, and is prone to confusion and loss when using the Internet. And this confusion and disorientation can lead to the elderly becoming addicted to the Internet and forming Internet addiction.

In short, there are many reasons for Internet addiction among the elderly, and we need to start from many aspects to provide better life security and moral support for the elderly. At the same time, the elderly should establish a correct concept of surfing the Internet, use the Internet reasonably, and avoid falling into the danger of Internet addiction.

The increasing number of elderly people who are addicted to the Internet is because with the popularization of the Internet, the proportion of elderly people using computers and mobile phones is also increasing. On the one hand, because older people have plenty of time in retirement and are eager to find ways to have entertainment and socialize, they often use the Internet. On the other hand, due to the relatively low level of technology of the elderly, they are easy to indulge in watching news, chatting on WeChat, searching for information, etc., and in the face of boredom and loneliness in reality, they are highly dependent on the Internet, and it is difficult to extricate themselves from the disadvantages, which in turn brings the problem of Internet addiction.

The Internet has become an indispensable existence in modern society, and we can strive to improve the quality of life and health of the elderly and reduce the phenomenon of Internet addiction by encouraging the elderly to learn new technologies and find a more healthy lifestyle.

The phenomenon of "Internet addicted elderly" is mainly due to the following reasons:

Changes in social structure: With the trend of social aging and the change of family structure, more and more elderly people live alone or empty nest at home, lacking social channels and spiritual sustenance, so they use the Internet to reduce the loneliness and pressure of their relatives.

The popularization of digital lifestyle: With the development of technology and the popularization of digital lifestyle, the elderly have gradually joined the online world, using various smart devices to enjoy the convenience and entertainment brought by the Internet.

Lack of correct awareness and prevention of Internet addiction: Due to the limited awareness and understanding of the Internet and the lack of correct awareness of Internet addiction and prevention, the elderly are prone to indulge in the online world, resulting in the phenomenon of "Internet addiction". In order to solve the problem of "Internet addiction" in the elderly, the following measures can be taken:

Strengthen education and publicity: The elderly should be disseminated with correct knowledge of Internet use, and their awareness of Internet addiction and prevention should be raised.

Establish social channels and activities: Older persons should be encouraged to actively participate in social activities and various cultural and recreational activities to enhance their social and spiritual sustenance.

With the popularization and mobility of the Internet, the Internet has become an indispensable part of our lives. However, the various entertainment activities and social interactions on the Internet are also easy for some elderly people to indulge in them and become victims of Internet addiction. In addition, the aging of society and the alienation of family relatives have also led to more and more elderly people seeking communication and entertainment online.

Moreover, the relatively free use of the Internet at home and the loose control make it easy for them to form dependencies and habits. Therefore, it is necessary to guide the elderly to maintain a healthy lifestyle as much as possible, pay attention to the scientific and rational use of the Internet, and protect their physical and mental health.

The way of life and entertainment of the elderly has changed, and they are increasingly dependent on the Internet, especially the mobile Internet. Due to the development of modern technology, the elderly can access the Internet, socialize, play, watch and so on through computers, smartphones, tablets and other devices at home.

Older people have smaller social circles and feel lonely and bored. Many older people retire and lose their jobs, co-workers, and workplaces, making their lives lonely and monotonous. Socializing, gaming, and entertainment on the web became an important form of entertainment for them, making them feel comfortable and comforted.

The spiritual needs of the elderly are not being met. Older people feel lost about the meaning and contribution of their lives, and they need something that makes them feel valuable. In online dating, games, learning and other activities, the elderly can feel their importance and sense of existence.

The elderly lack of cyber security awareness and precautions. Many elderly people do not understand the common methods of cyber security and fraud, and are vulnerable to cybercrime, which also leads to improper consumption and activities of some elderly people online.

To sum up, the increase in Internet addiction among the elderly is due to the development of modern technology and the changes in the lives of the elderly, and the elderly should be guided to use the Internet correctly and enhance their awareness of network security.

After the elderly quit the workplace, their leisure time gradually increases, and they are more likely to feel lonely, and the Internet can bring new space and spiritual sustenance to their lives, coupled with the decline of physical function of the elderly, and the decline of self-discipline, so it is easy to indulge in the Internet, and with the gradual popularization of smart phones, the proportion of the elderly using smart hand boring key machines is increasing year by year. In the context of the aging of the population and the fact that Zheng Qiaoshen is not around, the number of empty nesters living alone has increased, and the convenience, speed, and entertainment of network technology have deepened the dependence of the elderly on the Internet.

Empty and lonely! The children grew up and worked and were not around, and they didn't even have a person to talk to. The lack of mobile phones and internet can give them a great sense of satisfaction.

You can also learn some new knowledge by meeting different friends in the big network of fierce caves. The family didn't interact with them, but there were them on the Internet! On the other hand, it just reflects the loneliness of old age.

There are many elderly people who need mobile phones to start a business online. In general, it is a matter of personal needs.
