Elevated social Internet use and schizotypal personality disorder in adolescents
Open accessAbstract
Introduction In the past decade, the use of the Internet as a forum for communication has exponentially increased, and research indicates that excessive use is associated with psychiatric symptoms. The present study examined the rate of Internet use in adolescents with personality disorders, with a focus on schizotypal personality disorder (SPD), which is characterized by marked interpersonal deficits. Because the Internet provides an easily accessible forum for anonymous social interaction and constitutes an environment where communication is less likely to be hampered by interpersonal deficits, it was hypothesized that SPD youth will spend significantly more time engaging in social activities on the Internet than controls. Methods Self-reports of daily Internet use in adolescents with SPD (n=19), a control group with other personality disorders (n=22) and a non-psychiatric control group (n=28) were collected. Results Analyses revealed that the SPD participants reported significantly less social interaction with 'real-life' friends, but used the Internet for social interaction significantly more frequently than controls. Chat room participation, cooperative Internet gaming, and to a lesser degree, e-mail use, were positively correlated with ratings of SPD symptom severity and Beck Depression Inventory scores. Discussion Findings are discussed in light of the potential benefits and risks associated with Internet use by socially isolated SPD youth.

Participation in chat rooms may contribute to worsening symptoms in young people with psychotic disorders.
“participation in chat rooms may contribute to worsening symptoms in young people with psychotic disorders (Mittal, Tessner, & Walker, 2007)”
From Social Media and Mental Health: Benefits, Risks, and Opportunities for Research and Practice (2020) · cites this paper as Mittal, Tessner, & Walker, 2007
The Results report that adolescents who spent more time in chat rooms had more severe schizotypal personality disorder (SPD) symptom ratings. The Discussion raises the possibility that reducing Internet access might reduce symptom severity, but says experimental studies are needed; it does not establish that chat-room participation worsens symptoms. The study concerns adolescents with SPD, not young people with psychotic disorders generally. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
