Abstract

Adolescence and youth is one of the most significant risk factors for the formation of various dependencies. Recently, due to the computerization of society, cyber-addiction has become widespread, to which schoolchildren are more susceptible due to their fragile psyche. The Internet is becoming the center of their attention; there is a loss of interest in life; with noaccess to the virtual reality, there appears a feeling of emptiness and irritability. These conditions result in socio-psychological maladaptation and anxiety-depressive disorders, which, in turn, are favorable soil for the development of suicidal behavior. The relevance of this topic is due to the annual increase in the number of digital technology users worldwide, which inevitably leads to an increase in the number of Internet addicts. The aim of the work is to identify the effect of computer addiction on the occurrence of anxiety-depressive disorders, and the main tasks are to reveal the prevalence of cyber addiction, as well as to determine the level of anxiety and depression in schoolchildren. The study used the hospital anxiety and depression scale test method (HADS) and a questionnaire method using a specially designed questionnaire. The analysis of the obtained data showed that 29 % of schoolchildren are addicted to the Internet and computer technology. All students with signs of cyber addiction have a high level of anxiety depression.
