However, most review studies do not differentiate between the adolescent and young adult population. The sample of this meta-analysis consists of 20 studies (K = 28) comprised of 21 878 adolescents whose mean age was 15.13 years. Regarding the methodology, the protocol of registration of the research of the Cochrane systematic review manuals in Higgins and Green (2011) and PRISMA (2015) was followed. The results show a high heterogeneity. Thus, the Random Effects Model has been necessary followed. The effect size of the Internet addiction is Z = 16.04; p = 0.000 with a 95% confidence interval (3.164 – 4.045). In other words, the population does not suffer from severe Internet addiction, although the incidence is still alarming. Moderator variables, such as age, explained 24% of variance; instrument explained 31% of variance, in particular CIAS (Z = 1.75; p = 0.07) and IGD-20 (Z = 4.53; p = 0.00); and finally culture explained 47%, and more concretely, the international sample (Z = -1.71; p = 0.00). Thus, Internet addiction is inversely proportional to age and is influenced by the geographical area in which one resides. On the other hand, it should be noted that there is no agreement on the diagnosis of Internet addiction or on the instruments used to measure it. It is necessary to build an explanatory and intervention model for this pathology based on an international framework. The absence of clear criteria has generated multiple psychometric instruments around which there is no solid consensus. Finally, a complex etiology is presented in which educational, socio-familial, cultural and individual variables are involved. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/S57-20R info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by-nc-nd http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/ 3.3 2022 SOCIAL WORK 4 / 44 = 0.091 2022 Q1 T1 FAMILY STUDIES 10 / 46 = 0.217 2022 Q1 T1 0.974 2022 Education 2022 Q1 Sociology and Political Science 2022 Q1 Social Work 2022 Q1 Developmental and Educational Psychology 2022 Q2 5.0 2022 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Latorre-Martínez, MªPilar Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-8486-6885 Cortés-Pascual, Alejandra Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-2839-7041 4012 650 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
