Resumo

Background/Objective: The aim of this study is to analyze whether the big five personality traits are predictors of problematic internet use (PIU) and whether PIU predicts changes in emotional well-being and externalizing behaviors, as well as in risk internet-related behaviors (cyberbullying and sexting). Method: This study analysed data from 624 adolescents studied on two occasions (T1 and T2) separated by a one-year period, with evaluations of the big five traits, PIU, and the potential outcomes. Results: The results show that low conscientiousness predicts increases in PIU from T1 to T2. Furthermore, results show that a high PIU predicts increases in both proactive and reactive aggressive behavior and in substance use. A high PIU score predicts a decrease in positive emotions. The results also suggest that a high PIU predicts increased cybervictimization and cyberbullying. Conclusions: This study makes it possible to verify that personality predicts the development of PIU in adolescence and that PIU contributes to the development of externalizing problems and the deterioration of subjective well-being.
