Ultimately, collected data were analyzed by using Enter regression analysis, multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA), and one-way ANOVA to verify the purpose of the study. The results showed a significant correlation between family function, loneliness and self-esteem with Internet addiction (P<0/001). Tthe results of regression model also showed that in total, predictor variables explain 60% of variance of criterion variable (R2=60).
