Title: INTERNET ADDICTION AND THE TENDENCY TOWARD AGGRESSION AMONG ADOLESCENTS IN THE CITY OF TETOVO
Author: SHEFITI, Arnisa
Abstract: The use of the internet is an inseparable part of life, especially for young people and adolescents. Despite the positive effects that the internet has brought to the contemporary world, excessive use also has negative consequences, particularly during adolescence. In this regard, our study aims to predict the tendency for aggression among adolescents based on internet addiction. A total of 190 adolescents from two high schools in the city of Tetovo participated in the study, specifically from the Medical High School "Nikola Shtejn" and the Gymnasium "Kiril Pejčinović." The average age of the students is 16.6 years. The results show that, compared to girls, boys exhibit a higher level of internet addiction and that there are no gender differences regarding the tendency for aggression. Linear regression confirmed that internet addiction predicts the tendency for aggression among adolescents.
