Problematic Internet Use: Out-patient Clinic Greek Data

The data involves anonymous intake assessment and therapy progress/outcome information of 203 adult clients seeking treatment in a public outpatient unit specialized in problematic internet use in Greece (Psychiatric Hospital of Attica: 18-ano). Data was collected between 2011 and 2015. Informed consent was provided by the participants for the use of the data by researchers other than the data collection team for future research purposes. Data contains socio-demographic and internet abuse information, alongside measures of psychopathology (Symptoms Check List-90 Revised; Derogatis & Unger, 2010), personality traits (Five Factor Questionnaire; Asendorpf, 2002) and addictive internet use (Internet Addiction Test; Young 2009). Approval for the public deposit of the data has been provided by the current director of the unit S. Christidi (MD).
