Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The use of the internet is very popular in adolescence. Notwithstanding the benefits from the internet, many users are addicted to the internet and develop problematic behaviours which are regarded as "Internet addiction" (IA). Trained nursing students, who are the future nurses and well-equipped with basic health knowledge, as the interventionists to deliver a bCBTMI intervention to the eligible subjects. The result of this study is expected to provide evidence of the feasibility and effectiveness of training nursing students to conduct bCBTMI in Hong Kong Chinese adolescents with IA for a definitive RCT.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A two-arm, parallel-group, feasibility cluster randomized controlled trial will be conducted. 60 adolescents with IA will be recruited from secondary schools in Hong Kong. Participants in the intervention group will receive 4 weekly 30-45 minute sessions using the brief CBT and the brief MI models by nursing students. Control group participants will receive routine care for IA.

Control

Routine care for IA.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Control

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The control group will receive health talks about internet addiction consequences and impacts on young people by nursing students who are not involved in the intervention group to mimic the time and attention spent on the intervention group. These health talks are considered routine care for IA health promotion.
