This brief self-report measure screens for problematic patterns of online social communication and related functional impact. The Cybercommunication Addiction Assessment is intended to support an initial estimate of severity and to guide follow-up clinical interview when concerns are identified.
The instrument includes 20 items and typically takes about 4 minutes to complete. Items focus on habitual use, perceived loss of control, and the extent to which online communication affects mood, daily responsibilities, and interpersonal functioning. Developed by Kimberly S. Young, the Cybercommunication Addiction Assessment is best used as a screening tool rather than a stand-alone diagnostic procedure.
