Abstract Objective To investigate the prevalence of Internet addiction among primary and middle school students in Jiaxing City, so as to provide insights into the development of interventions for Internet addiction among primary and middle school students. Methods A total of 1 701 students were sampled from two primary schools, two junior high schools, two senior high schools and two vocational high schools in Jiaxing City during the period between September and October, 2021, using the stratified cluster sampling method. The Internet addiction status was evaluated using the Internet Addiction Test, and the depression status was tested using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), while the anxiety was assessed with the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7). Results The participants included 783 men (46.03%) and 918 women (53.97%), and 873 rural students (51.32%) and 828 urban students (48.68%). The overall detection of Internet addiction was 6.53% among the participants, and the prevalence of moderate and severe Internet addiction was 5.88% and 0.65%, respectively. A higher prevalence of Internet addiction was detected in rural students (χ2=4.695, P<0.05), junior high school students (χ2=65.337, P<0.05), students with a poor relationship with family members (χ2=39.231, P<0.05), teachers (χ2=28.799, P<0.05) and classmates (χ2=36.341, P<0.05). The prevalence of depressive and anxiety symptoms was 23.81% and 21.52%, respectively, and the prevalence rates of depressive and anxiety symptoms were both higher among primary and middle school students with Internet addiction (68.47% and 56.76%) than among those without Internet addiction (χ2=130.556 and 87.327, both P<0.05). Conclusion The prevalence of Internet addiction is high among primary and middle school students living in rural areas and with poor interpersonal relationships in Jiaxing City. Students with Internet addiction are more likely to develop depressive and anxiety symptoms.
