Abstract
With the popularization and development of the Internet, the problem of Internet addiction among rural middle school students has become increasingly prominent, exerting adverse effects on students’ physical and mental health, academic performance, and family relationships. This study aims to deeply analyze the causes of Internet addiction among rural middle school students and explore effective countermeasures. The investigation reveals that Internet addiction is closely related to multiple factors, including the family environment, school education, social atmosphere, and personal traits. It should start from multiple levels to jointly construct a system for preventing and treating Internet addiction among rural middle school students.
