20.500.12556/DKUM-92341 Povezanost prekomerne uporabe interneta in osamljenosti Link between excessive internet use and loneliness Internet je postal nepogrešljivo orodje, ki je v zadnjih desetletjih močno spremenil način komuniciranja in preživljanja prostega časa. Zmanjšalo se je število pristnih družbenih interakcij v živo, pojavila se je izolacija in s tem občutki osamljenosti. Namen te diplomske naloge je bil raziskati povezanost med prekomerno uporabo interneta in občutki osamljenosti v Sloveniji ter ugotoviti, kako demografski dejavniki posameznika vplivajo na njegovo uporabo interneta. V teoretičnem delu smo opredelili osnovne pojme in predstavili spoznanja preteklih raziskav, v empiričnem delu pa smo predstavili izvedbo raziskave med slovensko populacijo. Pridobljene podatke smo statistično obdelali s pomočjo programa SPSS. Rezultati raziskave so pokazali šibko dvosmerno povezavo med prekomerno uporabo interneta in občutki osamljenosti. Posamezniki, ki pogosteje uporabljajo internet, nekoliko bolj poročajo o določenih občutkih osamljenosti in obratno. Poleg tega so rezultati pokazali, da starost, zakonski stan in zaposlitveni status vplivajo na čas uporabe interneta, medtem ko spol ter stopnja izobrazbe na to nimata vpliva. Raziskava potrjuje, da prekomerna uporaba interneta vpliva na posameznikovo družbeno življenje in duševno počutje. Čeprav rezultati ne kažejo močne povezave med prekomerno uporabo interneta in osamljenostjo, nakazujejo na potrebo po nadaljnjih raziskavah tega področja, predvsem v smeri preventivnega ukrepanja. The internet has become an essential tool that has significantly changed the way people communicate and spend their leisure over the past decades. The number of face-to-face interactions has decreased, leading to greater isolation and, consequently, feelings of loneliness. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the relationship between excessive internet use and feelings of loneliness in Slovenia and to determine how demographic factors influence a persons’ internet use. In the theoretical part, we defined key concepts and presented findings from previous studies, while the empirical part focused on conducting research among the Slovenian population. The collected data was statistically analysed using the SPSS program. The results of the study showed a weak reciprocal relationship between excessive internet use and feelings of loneliness. People who use the internet more frequently tend to experience certain feelings of loneliness slightly more often, and vice versa. Additionally, the findings indicate that age, marital status, and employment status influence the amount of time spent using the internet, but gender and level of education do not. The study confirms that excessive internet use affects an individual’s social life and mental well-being. Although the results do not show a strong connection between excessive internet use and loneliness, they suggest the need for further research in this area, particularly with regard to preventative measures. prekomerna uporaba interneta osamljenost internet excessive internet use loneliness internet true true false Slovenski jezik Angleški jezik Diplomsko delo/naloga 2025-03-31 17:34:11 2025-08-08 11:34:28 2025-08-09 03:20:02 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 Maribor 0 0000-00-00 NiDoloceno NiDoloceno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 245230851 UN_Cerar_Lovro_2025.pdf UN_Cerar_Lovro_2025.pdf 1 222064D317E50B7BFCFE5E79579CD85C 56b534a268b48c33251de7e9aa0484a762ee2f21f27ac3cbdd9f2b5f709c5925 5885c28d-0edd-11f0-811a-00155d000105 https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=189893 Fakulteta za organizacijske vede 0 0 0
