Select the response that best matches how often each behavior occurs. Use typical behavior rather than unusual days, such as illness, travel, or special events.

Children's Internet Addiction Test

cyberpsychologycomputer addiction

This brief screening measure helps estimate a child’s degree of problematic internet use and related functional impact. The Children’s Internet Addiction Test is commonly used to support conversations with caregivers and to guide decisions about whether further evaluation is indicated.

The instrument consists of 20 items and takes about 4 minutes to complete. Items typically ask about patterns of online use, difficulty limiting time online, emotional or behavioral changes when access is restricted, and interference with school, family, or offline activities.

In clinical or school settings, the Children’s Internet Addiction Test may be administered to a caregiver as an informant report and used for initial screening and follow-up monitoring over time. If authorship is cited, it is often attributed to Kimberly S. Young.
