Abstract: Internet Addiction Disorder has become a risky factor for physical and mental development and academic performance of adolescents. According to the studies about psychological prevention and intervention on adolescents’ Internet addiction in the past more than 10 years, there were different psychological treatment approaches and modalities, among which is predominated by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and group counseling. The programs in this field tend to integrate multiple approaches and modalities. Based on previous studies and different counseling theories such as Family Therapy, CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and internet addiction theories such as psychological need satisfaction, we have developed multi-level comprehensive prevention and intervention programs applied in the individual, family, or school, most of which have been tested by empirical studies. Future research can focus on biological factors of Internet addiction among adolescents, to eventually develop a systematic biopsychosocial program for psychological prevention and intervention on adolescents' Internet addiction.

Key words: Internet addiction, adolescent, intervention, prevention
