Goals

This project studies the comorbidity of some problematic uses of the Internet with depression in order to assess their correlation. With that aim, a meta-analysis of 19 samples obtained from 13 different studies (n=33,458) was carried out. The subjects of these studies are adolescents between the ages of 12 and 18 years (μ=15.68) from different cultures and continents (Europe, Euro-Asia, America, and Asia).
