hello,
i have read much on the on going debate whether internet is an potential threat to man or not .i am currently studying social psychology at mumbai ,india ..and i have taken net addiction as my topic of research ....i am studying personality types and the coping skills used by net addicts in comparison to net surfers who r not hardcore net addicts ......(using richard davis "online cognition scale")...i would be obliged if any one of u could help get more literature on personality types of addicts in general (whether pathological gamblers ,alcholic,drug)and on coping skills used by addicts in general ....may be that will shade more light on net addiction telling us whether it is same as other addiction ...thus warranting psychologist to take notice and formally introduce in diagnostic manual as a disorder or addiction along with other addictions
