Are School-Based Interventions Effective in Preventing Internet Misuse? A Systematic Review
© 2023. The Author(s)..
Problems related to the use of the internet have triggered the appearance of internet addiction. With this problem comes the need for prevention. The objective of this study is to update the knowledge about the effectiveness of internet addiction prevention programs in schools. The specific aims are: (1) to identify the objectives of school's prevention programs, (2) to analyse the components and instruments used, (3) to evaluate the quality of the relevant studies and (4) to compare the results of the publications. A search with the terms "Internet", "Internet Use Disorder", "addiction", "prevention", "school", "effectiveness", and "prevention program" was carried out in 10 bibliographic databases in August 2021. For the selection of articles, the 25 quality criteria of the CONSORT 2010 list were used. Only articles that evaluated school prevention programs and had a quality score greater than 10 were selected. The results are shown in three tables. Eleven publications that met the inclusion criteria were identified. The measurement scales used are very heterogeneous. Ten of the 11 programs were effective in preventing adolescent internet misuse, abuse, or addiction. Increasing students' self-control reduces the problem of internet abuse. The validity of the results is discussed considering the methodological quality of the studies.
