Hierarchical regression showed that the total variance of demography in predicting internet addiction was 15%;the total variance of life events, social support, coping styles and emotion variables in predicting internet addiction was 23%. After the variables of demography were controlled, the best predictors for internet addiction were life events,social anxiety, negative coping and objective support, and these four variables explained 18.5% of the total variance of intemet addiction. Dominance analysis indicated that for the regression equation in predicting internet addiction, life events contributed 84. 52%, social anxiety contributed 8. 21% and negative coping contributed 4.72%, objective support contributed 2.54% of the predicted variance.
