Abstract
The article presents the results of a study in which we examined the phenomenon of self-assessment as a factor in the emergence of Internet addiction among young people. The research was conducted on the basis of two methods - Marilyn Sorensen’s method to determine the level of self-assesteem, Kimberly Young’s method to identify Internet addiction. The study involved 30 respondents. As a result of the analysis of answers to the questions, we conducted a correlation analysis of the data and confirmed the hypothesis – the lower the self-esteem, the higher the predisposition to Internet addiction.
