What is computer addiction? The term "computer addiction" itself appeared in 1990, when the development computer technology has picked up a frantic pace. Psychologists call computer addiction a kind of emotional addiction, very similar to alcohol and drug addiction. She provokes the child to immerse himself in his fictional world, to believe in his own legend about himself and so get along with her that it becomes almost impossible to exist normally in the real world. It can be said that this disease leads to a split personality.

Who is affected by computer addiction? Initially, this disease manifested itself in adults, but later it increasingly appears in children and adolescents. Most often, computer addiction occurs in children aged 12-16 years, usually these are children with severely overestimated or low self-esteem.

How is addiction formed? Every person's brain is equipped with a pleasure center. If the virtualist is pulled away from the computer for 2 hours or more, he, like an alcoholic suffering from a hangover, experiences withdrawal symptoms.

Addiction to the Internet (setegolism) The endless stay of a person in the network. Signs of networkholism: an obsessive urge to constantly check email; anticipation of the next online session; increased time spent online; an increase in the amount of money spent online. Addiction to computer games (cyber-diction) It is divided into groups depending on the nature of a particular game: 1) Role-playing computer games (maximum escape from reality). 2) Non-role computer games (striving to achieve the goal - to complete the game, the excitement of achieving the goal, gaining points). The main types of computer addiction


Dynamics of computer addiction From the beginning of hobby there is a stage of a kind of adaptation, a person “gets a taste”, then a period of sharp growth, rapid formation of addiction begins. As a result of growth, the value of dependence reaches a certain maximum point, the position of which depends on the individual characteristics of the personality and environmental factors. Further, the strength of dependence remains stable for some time, and then declines and again is fixed at a certain level and remains stable for a long time.




Causes of computer addiction The more psychological barriers a child has in everyday real life, the faster and deeper he will plunge into virtual reality Character traits Lack of attention and understanding on the part of loved ones Features of upbringing and relationships in the family Consequence of diseases


Signs of computer addiction When parents ask to be distracted from playing on the computer, the teenager expresses a strong reluctance to do so; if, nevertheless, the child is distracted from the computer, then he becomes very irritable; the child is not able to plan the time when he will finish playing on the computer; the child spends a lot of money to update programs on the computer and acquire more and more new games; a teenager forgets about household chores and responsibilities, about school; the diet and sleep schedule gets completely lost, the child begins to neglect his own health;


Signs of computer addiction to constantly keep himself awake, the teenager begins to abuse coffee; food intake takes place without leaving the computer; when a child begins to play or work on a computer, he feels an emotional uplift; there is constant communication with people around for various computer themes; the child experiences a feeling of euphoria when at the computer; he anticipates and thinks over with all the details of his subsequent finding in the world of computer fiction, which helps to improve his mood.




What to do if you suspect your child has a computer addiction? Tune in to calmly overcome the painful state Set a restriction on the mode of using the computer Make sure that the child sits down at the computer only during rest If the child promises to change behavior, but does not follow it, it is necessary to contact a specialist Enter a dialogue with the child


Parents' work on prevention of computer addiction The first step is to change the stereotyped behavior. Offer your child activities that will interest him more than computer world... Look for areas of creative fulfillment that are interesting for your child. Demonstrate an example.


Prevention of "computer addiction" To acquaint him with the temporary norms of work on the computer. Monitor the child's extracurricular activities (circles, sections). Introduce household chores.

To monitor that the child sits down at the computer only in moments of rest and after completing basic duties. Teach your child how to cope with negative emotions, get out of stressful situations. Do not forget that parents are a role model, so do not break the rules that you set for your child (taking into account your norms).


Safety precautions when working at the computer Doing exercises for the eyes Regular breaks at the computer (every 40 minutes) The monitor should be centimeters from the user and slightly above eye level The computer is best placed in a corner Regular damp cleaning in the room



Slide 1

Slide 2

I chose the topic of my work - "Computer addiction in adolescents", because now computers are used for other purposes, in other words, to the detriment of myself. And what kind of harm are we talking about? How does the student use the computer? Can we fight the problems that we get from not working at the computer? Do people know about computer addiction?

Slide 3

Based on the results of my observations, I put forward a hypothesis - "Unwise use of a computer leads to the degradation of the spiritual and moral world of youth."

Slide 4

This project is relevant in that it is like scientific work explains to us all the pros and cons of computer addiction, explains in detail its reasons. I think that not only children, but also adults will be interested in such information. The goal of the project must necessarily have real solution otherwise, I do not see its further implementation, and this is so important not only for me, and not even for other students, it affects different segments of the population, and the problem of computer addiction concerns not only children, but also adults. This means that my project can also become an example for adults, a new goal is to explain to people about the rules for using a computer, not just reading them instructions, but to get them interested in this.

Slide 5

- to analyze theoretical approaches to the problem; - to study the measures for the prevention of computer syndrome; - study the mode of work of schoolchildren on a computer and identify the impact of this work on the student.

Slide 6

As I said, each person creates the conditions for risk for himself. The computer was created by professors for good intentions, for the good of the people. But not all children can appreciate it. As for the object of my research, it is a child, and the object is a computer and such a phenomenon as "computer addiction".

Slide 7

Active work with the computer keyboard leads to an overload of the joints of the hands, numbness of the fingertips occurs. At active work with a computer for a long time, diseases of the articular and ligamentous apparatus of the hand can become chronic

Slide 8

Slide 9

Firstly, image jerking is harmful due to a low vertical refresh rate or due to poor scan quality of the monitor. The second most important factor in eye fatigue is image content. Let's list the options for images in ascending order from the least harmful to the most harmful:. The very first danger associated with working at a computer is the detrimental effect on vision. The real eye killers are games. A moving image, small elements - all this leads to such overwork that it takes very long to remove.

Slide 10

Slide 11

The second most harmful factor affecting health when working with a computer is a cramped posture. Sitting at the computer, a child (or an adult) must look at the screen from a certain distance and at the same time keep his hands on the keyboard or controls. This forces his body to take a certain position, and not change it until the end of the work. In this respect, a computer is much more dangerous than a TV, which allows you to move freely. Due to the constrained posture, the following violations occur:

Slide 12

If this congestion occurs in the muscles of the shoulders, back or neck, headaches can occur as the muscles transmit "discomfort signals" to the nerves of the sensitive tissues of the face, head and scalp. Osteochondrosis. Labored breathing. This is the most insidious of all enemies. The elbows extended forward do not allow the chest to move freely, and this leads to asthma, the development of coughing attacks and other manifestations. Pain in the muscles of the back, neck and headaches. The human body is not designed to spend long hours in a fixed position. Prolonged periods of immobility reduce blood flow to the muscles, which leads to a build-up of metabolic waste products that irritate the nerves of the muscles involved.

Slide 13

The third most important factor is mental stress. A computer requires as much concentration as driving a car. Interesting games require tremendous voltage, which practically does not exist under normal conditions. This area is very little studied, since modern multimedia technology has appeared only recently.

Slide 14

Having studied a large number of materials (Internet, literature). I learned a lot about computer addiction. Psychologists distinguish the following symptoms of psychological dependence on a computer: - well-being or euphoria at the computer; - unwillingness to be distracted from work or playing at the computer; - irritation with forced distraction; - inability to plan the end of a session of work or play with the computer; - spending big money to ensure constant updating software(including games); - forgetting about household chores, official duties, study, meetings and agreements during work or play on the computer; - neglect of their own health, hygiene and sleep in favor of spending more time at the computer; - the person prefers to eat in front of the monitor.

Slide 15

Having studied and comprehended the material received, I conducted a computer dependence test between grades 5-7. It included a variety of questions. Pupils were asked to answer how much time they spend at the computer, what work they do on it, whether they have the Internet, and if so, what sites they visit.

Slide 16

I conducted tests for computer addiction in 6-7 grades. 85% of children turned out to be addicted! And I concluded: What's in modern world There are a lot of adolescents who are addicted to computers, if we consider grades 5 - 7.

Slide 17

They had to write the whole work within 5 - 10 minutes, and the rest of the time that I allocated for all the work with the 5th grade, I devoted to reading the opinion of professors on what a computer is, I also briefly told about when and who created the first computer. In this class, 73% of dependent children. I concluded: what older child, the more it goes into the virtual world. I also prepared an assignment for grade 5. The task consisted in the fact that my friend and I handed out to each student a piece of paper on which it was written: "The computer is this" and everyone had to write their opinion on this matter, as well as everyone could write what was interesting to him. The work was calculated for 15 - 20 minutes.

Slide 18

Slide 19

Let's list the main causes of computer addiction in younger students (7-10 years old) and adolescents. Lack or lack of communication and warm emotional relationships in the family. When parents (or other close relatives) do not devote time to the child. The child has no serious hobbies, interests, hobbies, attachments that are not related to the computer. The inability of the child to establish desirable contacts with others, lack of friends.

Slide 20

SOLUTION OF THE PROBLEM I am interested, even for myself, to find out: the reasons for this dependence, the way to identify it, as well as the way to remove it from yourself as far as possible Considering the impact of computers on health, we note several risk factors: - problems associated with electromagnetic radiation; - vision problems; - problems with muscles and joints; - stress, depression and other nervous disorders caused by the influence of the computer on the human psyche. In each of these cases, the degree of risk is directly proportional to the time spent at the computer and near it. Of course, this question should not remain unresolved, so I considered several ways to solve this problem.

Addiction to computer games as a negative factor in the formation healthy way life in children and adolescents A. A. Fedosova Faculty of Medicine and Prevention, 5 course Supervisor: Ph.D., Associate Professor L. P. Mamchits EE "Gomel State Medical University"


Today, according to numerous studies, up to 80% of schoolchildren at the age of years suffer from computer addiction. Children for days without food and rest can be in front of a computer at home or in specialized clubs.










62% of 11-year-olds and 46% of 14-year-olds visit computer gambling establishments almost daily. An analysis of the data of an anonymous survey carried out by us on 177 students of educational institutions in the city of Gomel showed that computer clubs are attended by children of all age groups. But they are especially popular among children of 11 years old (up to 76%) and 13 years old (up to 80%).




Being at the computer in the late evening and night time leads to lack of sleep, disrupts the physiological daily biorhythms of the child's life. Excessive passion for computer games leads to physical inactivity and a lack of time for leisure in the fresh air, which is necessary for the development of a healthy body. In addition, club visits can take place during school lessons. At the same time, academic performance decreases, conflicts arise with teachers and parents, as indicated by more than 15% of the children surveyed.


We have identified subjective symptoms of overstrain of the nervous system and eyes, changes in mood and poor sleep in children attending computer clubs. Headache was noted in 20%; heaviness in the head was noted in 10% of the interviewed adolescents; 15% of children complained of poor sleep after playing computer games with a tense plot.


A common complaint was eye pain (29%); flickering before the eyes (14%); blurred image (5%); 33% of the surveyed schoolchildren complained of eye fatigue, but this complaint was most pronounced among 11-year-old visitors to computer clubs (up to 62%). Namely, at this age, the formation of the main parts of the visual analyzer ends, the formation of its functions occurs.


In 48% of the children surveyed, games in clubs led to a deterioration in mood; aggressiveness developed in 8% of adolescent children. It should be noted that it is the adolescent period that is characterized by the lability of the psyche, the autonomic nervous system, the predominance of excitation processes over inhibition processes.


Most role-playing computer games are designed for adolescence. They are drawn and programmed by older people, without taking into account age-related psychological characteristics. Such games can strongly influence the formation of the personality during the period of active socialization and role identification.


Computer addiction arises due to the fact that schoolchildren do not have enough live communication with parents and peers. More often, children and adolescents who have unstable and conflict family or school relationships, who are not committed to any serious hobbies, become addicted.


These same students continue to be at the computer and at school, in computer science lessons. According to the data of the Gomel Regional Center for Hygiene, Epidemiology and Public Health, in the Gomel region there are 760 classrooms for educational and computer technology, of which only 71% fully comply with the SanPiN requirements. In 2007, 2556 workplaces with computers in schools of the region were surveyed, of which 7.6% do not meet sanitary standards, and according to laboratory research, an excess of levels of electromagnetic radiation at workplaces is noted in 10% of the surveyed workplaces.




The influence of a long stay at computer games on the health of schoolchildren: 1. Decreased immunity. 2. Psycho-neurological disorders - chronic fatigue syndrome, insomnia, nervous exhaustion, which can cause severe long-term depression and even suicidal attempts. There were cases of convulsive seizures provoked by the effect of "flickering" of the monitor and the frequent change of the image during the game. Japanese scientists have come to the conclusion that children who are overly addicted to computer games lose the ability to control their behavior. Gambling addicts are a high-risk group for committing offenses, crimes and even murder (in Russia and the United States, teenage gambling addicts killed their classmates and teachers); several cases of death of children from stroke after hours of computer games are known (in Russia and China). 3. Neurovegetative changes - fluctuations in blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, fever, headaches. 4. Vascular disorders. Due to the monotonous posture, congestion in organs and tissues, edema, varicose veins develop.


5. Changes in posture (especially important for children under 15 years of age), spinal osteochondrosis, herniated discs. 6. Violation of reproductive function due to the effect of electromagnetic radiation on the endocrine glands. 7. Deterioration of vision. 8. Endocrine disorders.


The student neglects his own health and hygiene in order to spend more time at the computer. Thus, the hobby of school-age children for computer games at home or in computer gaming establishments can be regarded as one of the negative factors influencing the formation of their healthy lifestyle.


This is how one of the gambling addicts recalls his pathological addiction: “Then there was nothing in my life more important than a game. I was losing my friends, my studies were not going well. There was no such thing as free time for me - it was all spent on games. I began to have a prolonged depression, with a frequent desire to commit suicide. Emptiness and melancholy grew in my soul. "


Recommendations for the prevention and overcoming of computer addiction in children and adolescents: 1. It is necessary to take preventive measures to prevent computer addiction in children and adolescents at the family and school levels. Parents and teachers help their child explore the real world. It is important that they also teach children “safety rules” in the virtual world.


4. Persons exercising control over the child's work should monitor his preferences in computer games, talk about the consequences of a long stay at the monitor. 2. The main principle of the weakening and treatment of addiction is substitution: the formation of a full-fledged spiritual and intellectual life, live communication with parents and peers, attention and care, classes in circles and sports sections, assistance in housework. 3. It is necessary to develop a culture of communication with a computer. It is important to show a minor that it is interesting to develop intellectually with the help of a computer, to receive necessary and useful information, to study, etc.


5. Effective method the fight against addiction to computer games and Internet addiction is the use of various control programs. The Game Control program, for example, is able to distinguish between studying at the computer and play activities: if a child uses a computer to prepare lessons, the monitor does not turn off, and if he plays computer games beyond the set time, then the monitor will turn off exactly on schedule. The Naomi 2.7 program will help limit minors' access to inappropriate resources by controlling information downloaded from the Internet, thus prohibiting access to computer games of chance, porn sites, and sites containing violent scenes.


6. The computer must be located where it is more convenient to control its use by minors, as well as establish clear requirements for the use of the computer and the Internet, and always demand their strict implementation. 7. In order to preserve the health of the younger generation, it is necessary to properly organize workplace at the computer, constantly monitor posture, as well as regularly take breaks for rest and exercise.


China has valuable experience in the prevention and treatment of computer addiction. For example, in this country, computers are equipped with a program that automatically turns off after two hours of being at computer games, and it is impossible to turn on for some time. Already in 2005. in China opened a clinic for the treatment of computer addiction, and in 2007. the opening of new Internet cafes and computer rooms was prohibited.
