Background: Internet addiction is a behavioral addiction - a common mental health problem today, especially among adolescents, with many negative physical, mental, and social impacts. Factors related to Internet addiction have yet to receive a consensus in the literature. Therefore, we conducted the study: "Associated factors of Internet addiction in inpatients aged 10 to 24 years at the Institute of Mental Health". Objective: "Factors related to Internet addiction of inpatients aged 10 to 24 years at Bach Mai National Institute of Mental Health".
