Are you addicted to Facebook? Take the test to find out

A university in Norway has developed  a test to see if you’re addicted to Facebook.

The test is based on six statements, and are scored on the following scale: (1) very rarely, (2) rarely, (3) sometimes, (4) often, and (5) very often.

The six statements are:

  • You spend a lot of time thinking about Facebook or plan use of Facebook
  • You feel an urge to use Facebook more and more
  • You use Facebook in order to forget about personal problems
  • You have tried to cut down on the use of Facebook without success
  • You become restless or troubled if you are prohibited from using Facebook
  • You use Facebook so much that it has had a negative impact on your job/studies

If you answer “often” or “very often” to these questions, then you may be suffering from an addiction.

The researchers said a Facebook addiction produces similar symptoms to a drug or alcohol addiction.
