“…The association between online flow and IA confirms several cross-sectional findings (Yang et al, 2014;Stavropoulos et al, 2013b), and highliths online flow's link to online satisfaction (Stavropoulos et al, 2013b;Hoffman & Novak, 2009;Zaman et al, 2010). Since addictive behaviors have been associated with gratification (Sussman & Sussman, 2011), higher levels of flow (and thus online gratification) may place adolescents at higher risk for IA.…”

“…Given the relationship between online flow and gratification (Hoffman & Novak, 2009) and the role of the latter as a precipitating and perpetuating factor in the development of addictions (Leung, 2014), it is assumed that adolescent users who experience more online flow are at higher risk for IA. This hypothesis is supported by a number of recent cross-sectional studies (Yang, Lu, Wang, & Zhao, 2014;Stavropoulos et al, 2013b). However, provided that levels of executive functions involved with flow experiences increase over time during late adolescence, it is likely that the association between online flow and IA symptoms severity would vary between 16 and 18 years (Bernheim et al, 2013;Stavropoulos et al, 2013b;Steinberg, 2007).…”

Internet Addiction (IA) constitutes an excessive internet use behavior with significant impact on the user's wellbeing. Online flow describes the users' level of being absorbed by their online activity. The present study investigated age-related, gender, and flow effects on IA in adolescence. The sample comprised 648 adolescents who were assessed twice at age 16 and 18 years. IA was assessed using the Internet Addiction Test and online flow was assessed using the Online Flow Questionnaire. A three-level hierarchical model estimated age-related, gender, and online flow effects on IA symptoms and controlled for clustered random effects.IA symptoms decreased over time (for both genders) with a slower rate in males. Online flow was associated with IA symptoms and this remained consistent over time. Findings expand upon the available literature suggesting that IA symptoms could function as a developmentrelated manifestation at the age of 16 years, while IA-related gender differences gradually increase between 16 and 18 years. Finally, the association between online flow and IA symptoms remained stable independent of age-related effects. The study highlights individual differences and provides directions for more targeted prevention and intervention initiatives for IA.

“…Međutim, iako postoje dokazi o povezanosti zanesenosti i dobrobiti, postavlja se pitanje u kojoj je mjeri doživljavanje zanesenosti u specifičnim područjima povezano s dobrobiti studenata, odnosno koja je uloga zanesenosti u akademskom području u odnosu na stanja zanesenosti u drugim područjima života. Naime, zanesenost sama po sebi ne dovodi nužno do pozitivnih posljedica kao što su razvoj i dobrobit, nego može dovesti i do nepoželjne ovisnosti, kao što je zanesenost u području upotrebe interneta i videoigara (Yang, Lu, Wang i Zhao, 2014). Čak i kad je aktivnost u kojoj se doživljava zanesenost poželjna i produktivna, hoće li zanesenost u toj aktivnosti dovesti do razvoja i dobrobiti osobe, ovisi o ulozi koju ta aktivnost ima u vrijednosnom sustavu osobe i kulture u kojoj živi (Delle Fave, 2009).…”

SažetakZanesenost je izrazito ugodno psihološko stanje koje ljudi doživljavaju kada su u tolikoj mjeri usmjereni na aktivnost kojom se trenutno bave da su potpuno njome zaokupljeni. Glavni je uvjet za pojavu stanja zanesenosti ravnoteža između izazova i vještina, pri čemu i izazovi i vještine moraju za pojedinca biti iznadprosječni. Zanesenost se najčešće istraživala u slobodnim aktivnostima, ali je ljudi doživljavaju i u aktivnostima koje su nametnute ili u njima ima manje slobode izbora, kao što su posao i obrazovanje. Zanesenost ima pozitivne posljedice ne samo na učinkovitost u različitim područjima života nego i na dobrobit pojedinca. I u akademskom je kontekstu zanesenost povezana s različitim pozitivnim ishodima, uključujući bolje svladavanje nastavnog programa, veća akademska postignuća, ali i veću dobrobit studenata. Kada je u pitanju studentska populacija, iskustva zanesenosti u akademskim aktivnostima manje su učestala nego u ostalim područjima studentskog života (slobodno vrijeme, uobičajene svakodnevne aktivnosti, povremeni posao), ali je veza između zanesenosti i dobrobiti najizraženija upravo u akademskom kontekstu. U ovom se radu daje pregled istraživanja akademske zanesenosti u studentskoj populaciji, posebno onih koja upućuju na moguće uzroke navedene povezanosti, kao što su važnost i korisnost akademskih aktivnosti za ostvarenje budućih životnih ciljeva, važnost akademskih aktivnosti za izgradnju socijalnog identiteta te smanjenje akademskog stresa i sagorijevanja.Ključne riječi: akademska zanesenost, dobrobit, socijalni identitet, akademski stres, studenti UvodPojavom se pozitivne psihologije značajno povećao broj istraživanja fenomena koji uključuju pozitivna stanja, pozitivnu osobu i pozitivnu zajednicu (Rijavec i Miljković, 2006). Analiza je objavljenih znanstvenih radova u tom području pokazala da je najviše istraživanja provedeno o dobrobiti (preko 40%), a slijede istraživanja snaga karaktera, nade, zahvalnosti, otpornosti i samorazvoja (Donaldson, Dollwet i Rao, 2015). Bez obzira na to što nije među najčešćim temama istraživanja, i stanje zanesenosti (engl. flow), kao jedno od pozitivnih stanja, također je privuklo veliku pozornost istraživača. PSIHOLOGIJSKE TEME, 27 (2018), 3, 519-541 520 Zanesenost je izrazito ugodno psihološko stanje koje ljudi doživljavaju kada su u tolikoj mjeri usmjereni na aktivnost kojom se trenutno bave da ih ta aktivnost u potpunosti zaokupi (Csikszentmihalyi, 1975(Csikszentmihalyi, /2000. To je stanje u kojem se pojedinac stapa s aktivnošću, potpuno je u nju uronjen, osjeća apsolutnu kontrolu nad njezinim izvođenjem, gubi osjećaj za vrijeme, a aktivnost postaje autotelična, tj. sama je sebi svrhom (Csikszentmihalyi i Rathunde, 1992; Nakamura i Csikszentmihalyi, 2009). Stanje zanesenosti je ugodno i zbog toga što je u tom stanju kapacitet svijesti u potpunosti usmjeren na aktivnost, pa pojedinac nema vremena za neugodne i anksiozne misli (Csikszentmihalyi, 1997).Prema originalnom modelu zanesenosti (Csikszentmihalyi, 1975(Csikszentmihalyi, /2000 da bi došlo do ...

“…Although those consequences are not to be underestimated, one of the most significant perils of social media is its potential as a source of addiction, which has been subjected to considerable discussion lately (Carbonell and Panova, 2017;Kircaburun and Griffiths, 2018;Yang et al, 2016). SNS addiction happens when the user has a problematic dependency on SNS usage (Turel and Serenko, 2012;Yang et al, 2014;Yang et al, 2016). In fact, research posits that social media is one of the most addiction-generating technologies, in general (Andreassen et al, 2017;Kircaburun and Griffiths, 2018;Yang et al, 2016), interfering negatively not only in users' daily activities [e.g.…”

Purpose Today’s society interest in mobile photography drives consumers’ and brands’ growing usage of Instagram. This paper aims to address the consequences of excessive use of Instagram on the negative feeling of losing information when not connected and the emotional fatigue resulting from an overcharge with new information. The mediating role of addiction between Instagram overuse and the two outcomes is also analyzed. Design/methodology/approach Data from 342 active Instagram users were used to test the proposed model, applying the partial least square equation modeling method (SmartPLS 3). Findings Addiction partially mediates the impact of overuse on emotional fatigue and instastress. Addiction to Instagram was mainly due to respondents’ lack of control over the time spent on it resulting in incapability to reduce its usage. Social implications Social networking site managers, educators, families and public institutions should promote an adequate use of Instagram, making users (especially the young) aware of the potential threats of its excessive usage. The control on the amount of time devoted to Instagram is a key factor for detaining overuse and addiction, as well as avoiding the negative outcomes analyzed in this research. Originality/value The findings contribute to the extant knowledge on the negative side of the digitization of the individual, as little is known about it to the best of the authors’ knowledge.
