While Internet use plays an increasingly important role in individuals’ lives, little is known about its potential to influence addictive behaviors. Guided by the acculturative stress theory, we examined the relationships between acculturative stress, gender, age, length of stay, and Internet addiction among international college students. Data were collected from 111 international undergraduate and graduate students studying in the United States. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses reported that acculturative stress and gender significantly predict Internet addiction among international college students. In this sample, neither age nor length of stay predicts Internet addiction. Our findings paint a picture of the potential influence of acculturative stress on Internet addiction. We offer suggestions for future research on Internet addiction and acculturative stress, particularly for international college students
