Incidence and predictive factors of Internet addiction among Chinese secondary school students in Hong Kong: a longitudinal study

ConclusionsPrevalence and incidence of IA conversion were high and need attention. Interventions should take into account risk predictors identified, such as those of the HBM, and time management skills should be enhanced. Screening is warranted to identify those at high risk (e.g. high CIAS score) and provide them with primary and secondary interventions.
