Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate effects of psychosocial factors and problem drinking on the SNS(social networking services) addiction among adult children of alcoholics (ACOAs).
Methods: The participants were 694 college students in Chungchongbuk do and Jeollabuk do. The CAST-6, AUDIT, UCLA
loneliness Scale, PHQ-9, MSPSS, and SNS addiction scale were used. Collected data were analyzed using SPSS 18.0.
Results: First, 34.6% of subjects were identified as ACOAs. Second, the ACOA group demonstrated greater depression, problem drinking, and SNS addiction, as well as less social support than did the non-ACOA group. Third, there were significant associations between SNS addiction and gender (females), higher SNS use, depression, loneliness, and problem drinking.
Conclusion: Psychosocial factors and problem drinking were significant predictors for SNS addiction. We suggest the development of an integrated psychosocial intervention program for ACOAs in college setting . The implications and limitations of these findings were discussed and directions for future studies were also proposed.
