Abstract:

Internet has become an inevitable part of modern life. It has both positive and negative impact in our life. The history of the Internet begins with the development of electronic computers in the 1950s. The Internet developed from the ARPANET, which was funded by the US government to support projects within the government and at universities and research laboratories in the US – but grew over time to include most of the world's large universities and the research arms of many technology companies. The Internet has made life a lot easier by making information more accessible to all and creating connections with different people around the world. However, it has also led many people to spend too much time in front of the computer, so much so that it becomes the center of their lives. This can lead to an Internet or computer addiction. The aim of this research to understand the frequency of internet addiction among college students.

Keywords: Internet Addiction, Gender Difference, Difference in Education Level, Internet Addiction Test.
