Abstract

In order to explore whether adolescent callous-unemotional traits and different types of internet use preference can predict internet addiction, this paper uses the Internet Use Questionnaire, the Callous-Unemotional Traits Scale (CUS), and Young’s Internet Addiction Scale to investigate 535 middle school students. Then SPSS 22.0. is used to analyze data collected by questionnaire mentioned above. The results show that there are no significant differences in the performance of callous-unemotional traits among adolescents of middle school, but the Internet use preferences and Internet addiction scores are significantly different from each other. Callous-unemotional traits, social networking, and internet entertainment can positively predict internet addiction, and different dimensions of callous-unemotional traits can predict different Internet use preferences, but there is no mediation effects between these factors and Internet addiction. In conclusion, the callousness-unemotional traits can be combined with online social networking and Internet entertainment to predict internet addiction.
