Investigation of the Differential Power of Young's Internet Addiction Questionnaire Using the Decision Stump Tree.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: Internet addiction is one of the serious consequences of recent advances in the use of social media. Early detection of Internet addiction is essential because of its harms and is necessary for timely and effective treatment. Aim: The aim of this study was to use data mining and an artificial intelligence algorithm to estimate the differential power of each question in the Young Internet Addiction Test and build a decision stump model to predict which item in the questionnaire can be representative of the whole questionnaire. Methods: This is a descriptive study conducted at the University of Tabriz, in which 256 undergraduate students were selected in randomized cluster sampling, and they completed Young's IAT (Internet Addiction Test) questionnaire and some demographic questions. The data were statistically analyzed with SPSS and were divided into two groups, normal and addicted, by using a cut-off point. Also, the data of the subjects was used to model the decision stump tree in WEKA. The clustering item was the normal and addicted specifier. Results: The study shows that Cronbach's alpha of the IAT is 0.88, which shows good internal integration of subjects that are used to develop the model in WEKA (the Waikato Environment for Knowledge Analysis). Data analysis showed that by using the second question of this questionnaire as the root of the decision stump tree model, it is possible to distinguish between Internet addicts and healthy users with 82% accuracy using this model. Conclusion: The study shows innovative ways in which decision stump trees and data mining can help to improve methods used in Clinical Psychotherapy and Human Science. Regarding this, the study showed that early detection of Internet addiction would be possible by using the 2
