The study comprised two stages (2005 and 2012). The analyses indicated that while the Internet’s intense use has lowered, the factors facilitating Internet risk addiction have become more pronounced. Such risk factors are: the manner of using the Internet(entertainment, pornography); relationships in the cyber community; and time spent online (the more time spent, the greater the risk of addiction). The lower the self-esteem the higher the risk of addiction. However, the percentage of people with Internet addiction symptoms has remained static.}, title={Use of Internet and its Addictive risk among Polish students – comparative analysis over a seven-year period}, keywords={use of Internet, polish students, satisfaction with life, prospective studies, internet addiction}, }
