Features of Computer Dependence Comparative Characteristics of Computer-Dependent and Computer-Independent Adolescents by Anthropometric Indicators

Abstract

Analyzed the data obtained. We have diagnosed 74 adolescents aged 13-14 years. Observations showed that 41% of the respondents revealed the possibility of developing computer addiction and 24% of the respondents revealed pronounced computer addiction. It was found that in computer-dependent adolescents, due to prolonged overstrain of the muscles of the right hand, hypertrophy with the withdrawal of the little finger to the lateral side is observed and on the right side there is a "dome-shaped" brush with the withdrawal of the little finger to the side. In computer-dependent adolescents, asymmetry of the trunk is noted due to the forced posture in front of the computer, followed by the formation of scoliosis.
