Abstract

Background: There are a large number of psychological problems caused by Internet addiction. We aimed to explore the intervention effect of narrative therapy in combination with Pilates exercise on Internet addiction among adolescents. Method: From July 2021 to October 2021, 42 adolescents with Internet addiction selected from four communities in Yiyang City of China were randomly divided into the intervention and control groups with 21 members in each group. The intervention group participated in the intervention of narrative therapy in combination with Pilates exercise eight times, whereas the control group did not receive any intervention. The 12-item General Health Questionnaire, Self-rating Young’s Diagnostic Questionnaire of Internet Addiction, and Positive Affect Subscale were used to measure the psychological indexes of the adolescents before and after the intervention. Results: Compared with those in the control group, the adolescents in the intervention group had an obvious decrease in the degree of Internet addiction with a statistically significant difference before and after the intervention (P < 0.001). After the intervention, the intervention group had significantly higher mental health scores and significantly lower scores for anxiety, depression, social dysfunction, and loss of interest than the control group. After the intervention, the intervention group showed an obvious increase in the score for positive affect with a statistically significant difference before and after the intervention (P < 0.001). Conclusion: The intervention method proposed in this study could effectively solve the problem of Internet addiction among adolescents.

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.
