Internet use and Problematic Internet Use: a systematic review of longitudinal research trends in adolescence and emergent adulthood
Open accessAbstract
The aim of this systematic literature review is to map the longitudinal research in the field of Internet Use (IU) and Problematic Internet Use (PIU) in adolescents and emergent adults. Further, this study endeavours to examine the terminology and instruments utilized in longitudinal IU and PIU research and investigate whether statistically significant results have arisen from the areas of research focus. In a total of 29 studies, trends in the research of adolescent/emergent adult IU and PIU were discovered. These trends were conceptualized into individual, contextual and activity-related factors. Findings suggested that individual factors are the most researched and have demonstrated significant relationships with adolescent/young adult PIU. However, more research on contextual and activity-related factors is needed in order to achieve a clearer understanding of young people’s IU and PIU behaviours, and to incorporate into a comprehensive model that will guide future research in this growing field.

TL;DR
This systematic review maps 29 longitudinal studies of Internet Use (IU) and Problematic Internet Use (PIU) in adolescents and emergent adults, finding that individual factors are most researched and often significantly related to PIU, while contextual and activity-related factors are under-researched. It also documents inconsistent terminology and multiple self-report measures, and calls for a dimensional IU-PIU continuum and more balanced longitudinal research.
Key findings
- Across 29 studies, variables were grouped into individual (n = 22), contextual (n = 4), and Internet activity-related (n = 1) influences; 21 of the 22 individual variables had statistically significant risk or protective associations with IU-PIU.
- Gender was examined in 12 studies; 7 found males at higher risk with the difference widening over time, while 3 did not support gender-related differences. Psychopathology predicted PIU, with evidence of bi-directional relationships; substance use showed no predictive or protective relationships (0% significance ratio in Table 6).
- Contextual factors such as parenting/family factors and classroom environment had 100% significance ratios in Table 6; peer findings were mixed. For activity-related factors, online gaming was a consistently strong predictor of PIU, but only one Internet activity-related variable was found to have been examined longitudinally.
- Terminology and measurement varied: there was no standardized definition, 13 different scales were used, and the most widely used instruments were the Internet Addiction Test (IAT), Compulsive Internet Use Scale (CIUS), and Chen Internet Addiction Scale (CIAS); most studies reported high reliability.
Methods
- Systematic literature review; searched ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Academic Search Complete on 13 June 2016 using title/abstract terms for Internet/web/online/gaming/video game and longitudinal/longitudinally, limited to full-text, English, peer-reviewed, 1994–2016, human participants.
- 670 database records plus 8 from reference lists; after duplicates, 379 records screened, 115 full-text articles assessed, and 29 studies met inclusion criteria: longitudinal with at least 2 months between time points, IU/PIU as dependent variable, adolescents or young adults, and empirical data; sexual or gambling addictions were excluded.
- Methodological quality was evaluated with attention to reliability of IU/PIU measures; findings were synthesized qualitatively and tabulated by variables and significance ratios.
Limitations
- Stated: the review included only adolescent/emerging adult populations and IU-PIU as the dependent variable; future research should assess all developmental stages and multiple time waves, and cultural influences on IU-PIU predictors were not discussed.
- Evident: reliance on self-report measures (aside from one study also using parental reports) raises reliability and validity concerns; inconsistent definitions and 13 different scales limit comparability.
- Evident: only 29 studies were included, with contextual and Internet activity-related factors especially under-represented, limiting conclusions about those domains.

The paper relies on this without support.
The 29 reviewed longitudinal studies are sufficiently comparable in their definitions and measures of IU/PIU to be synthesized into aggregate trends.
“Despite methodological differences in construct measures, it is important to note that most of the studies displayed high reliability, regardless of which particular instrument was used (see Table 1 for reliability of instruments).”
The paper relies on this without support.
The development of behaviour that places an adolescent or emergent adult at the high end of the IU-PIU continuum is influenced by all three areas: individual, contextual and Internet-related factors.
“Provided that the development of behaviour, that places an adolescent/emergent adult at the high end of the IU-PIU continuum is influenced by all three of these areas, more balanced emphasis across individual, contextual and Internet-related factors needs to be adopted by future longitudinal research”

“The term ‘Internet addiction’ or ‘smartphone addiction’ is not used consistently in the literature. A review shows the use of different expressions; there is, for instance, ‘digital addiction’ [25], ‘problematic Internet use’ [26], or ‘Internet-use disorder’ [27].”

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.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
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.
