Abstract

With the prevailing trend of economic globalization, the Internet connects people all over the world. At the same time, the rate of adolescent depression has shown an upward trend and becoming a worth noting topic. Is there a connection between the two? In the existing studies, some researchers have suggested that Internet Addiction Disorder (IAD) is related to the occurrence of depression, but very few studies involve the analysis of the cross-factors of the simultaneous increase in the proportion of Internet Addiction and depression. Based on the existing theories, this article will systematically introduce what IAD and MDD are, and examine the cross-factors of IA and MDD, including family influence, the role of stress, as well as the interaction between self-esteem and IA and MDD. By analyzing these factors, this paper will make the relationship between Internet addiction (IA) and major depression disorder (MDD) clearer and stronger, providing more theoretical supporting evidence for the following scientific research exploring these two fields.
