Internet use appears to cause a decline in psychological well-being, according to a recent research. This result really attracts a lot of attention from the public. The two-year study showed that even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet experienced more depression and loneliness than those who logged on less frequently. And it wasnˊt that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet, but that using the Net actually appeared to cause the bad feelings. People felt exhausted if they had been online for more than ten hours. Researchers are puzzled over the results, which were completely contrary to their expectations. They expected that the Net would prove socially healthier than television, since the Net allows users to choose their information and to communicate with others. But the fact that Internet use reduces time available for family and friends may account for the drｏp in well-being according to the study. Faceless, bodiless ″virtual″ communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversation, and the relationships formed through it may be shallower. Another possibility is that exposure to the wider world via the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.
