Obraz siebie u mężczyzn uzależnionych od internetu. Analiza porównawcza

Self-image constitutes an axial element of the human personality structure that regulates their behaviour. It plays an important role in the self-regulation process. Internet addiction is a disorder, the main symptom of which is the loss of self-regulating abilities and control of one’s behaviour in relation to the machine, which is the result of, inter alia, functioning of mechanisms that distort self-perception. The following article presents the results of a comparative analysis carried out on a group of 70 men addicted to the Internet and 66 non-addicted men, within the self-image structure measured by the Adjective Check List (ACL) by B. B. Gough and A. B. Heilbrun. Research results indicate that there are statistically significant differences in the structure of self-image within both groups. Purposive sampling and small sample size (N = 136) limit the scope of inference, however, they have a significant application value, which is worth considering while designing preventive and therapeutic interventions strengthening deficit areas in addicts.
