Prevalence of Internet Addiction and Its Association With Lifestyle Factors Among University Students: A Pilot Study in Eastern India
Our study revealed a high prevalence of IA among university students, which was significantly associated with eating preferences. Although students with IA were less involved in physical activity, it was not statistically significant. Further studies can generate more evidence on IA in the eastern region of India.
