dc.description.abstract-translatedThe advent of the internet in the 21st century has progressively become more systematic and indispensable, integrating with human functionality for immediate and efficient operations. Particularly after the Covid-19 pandemic, its use became imperative, as schooling shifted online, electronic platforms became essential for daily activities, and remote work persisted. However, an abuse of internet usage is observed in daily life, often devoid of practical purpose, serving only entertainment or diversion from other obligations. Internet addiction has garnered significant attention from researchers in recent years, emerging as a consequence of technological advancement. The repercussions of uncontrolled internet use can lead to a lack of interest in activities and subjects previously engaging, alongside the possibility of exhibiting deviant or aggressive behaviors. Moreover, studies suggest correlations between internet addiction and depressive symptoms, with individuals that evoke low self-esteem and a heightened need for approval often prone to such. This paper aims to compare findings from studies examining undergraduate students, focusing on how internet usage affects their psychology and whether they exhibit depressive symptoms or suffer from depression. It discusses the frequency of internet usage among students averaging 20 years old and the epidemiology of diagnosing young individuals as internet-dependent. Additionally, it explores the relationship between depression and internet addiction and how this differs between genders.en
