&quot;INTERNET ADDICTION AND PSYCHOLOGICAL MATURITY IN ADOLESCENTS OF PERU&quot;<br />
<br />
<p>The objective of the study was to establish the relationship between Internet addiction and psychological maturity in adolescents in Peru. To this study we take 1 707, third, fourth and fifth high school students between the ages of 13 and 18 were evaluated. 52.6% of students were women and 47.4% were men, we used the Internet Addiction (TAI) test, developed by Young (1998), was adapted to the Peruvian reality by Matalinares, Raymundo and Baca (2014); The Psychological Maturity Questionnaire (PSYMAS) was also applied, it was created by Morales, Capms and Lorenzo, (2012) and adapted to our reality for the present study. The results determine the existence of a significant and inverse relationship between the Internet addiction (tolerance, withdrawal and negative consequences) with all the dimensions of psychological maturity (orientation to work, autonomy and identity), this indicates that with a greater psychological maturity the adolescents will be less likely to develop an addiction to the Internet.</p><br/>The following message is being delivered on behalf of Interamerican Journal of Psychology.
