Özet
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the group program based on Cognitive-Behavioral Counseling Theories for preventing internet addiction (adolescent education) and to investigate whether families' receiving education about internet addiction and safe internet use (family education) made any differences on the problematic internet use. The study also investigated the common effect of the education provided to both families and adolescents (family-adolescent education) on students' problematic internet use. The study adopted a quasi-experimental design; methodological triangulation method was applied by using the quantitative data with the qualitative data obtained from the interviews conducted with the families and the documents administered in the sessions. While the adolescent education group was provided with a ten-session "Internet Addiction Prevention Psychoeducation Program", the family education group was provided with a three-session education program on internet addiction and safe internet use; the students in the family-adolescent group were composed of the adolescents who received both education programs. The control group was not provided with anything. The findings obtained from the study showed that with the decrease in the problematic internet use levels, the family-adolescent education group demonstrated a significant decrease in the Online Social Interaction Preference and Emotion Regulation levels, and this finding was permanent. The problematic internet use and Negative Results level of adolescent education group decreased significantly, and this finding was found to be permanent. It was also found that the Negative Results level of the family education group decreased significantly, which was found to be permanent.
