Abstract: This study aimed to explore the relationship and mechanism among the sensation seeking,internet service preference and the Internet addiction of college students. 319 college students finished Sensation Seeking Scale of College Students,Adolescent Pathological Internet Use Scale,and Internet Service Preference Scale. The result demonstrated that there is no gender difference in the proportion of Internet addiction for college students. The significant positive predictive role was found between the disinhibition dimension of sensation seeking and Internet addiction,but the thrill and adventure seeking dimension of sensation seeking has no influence on Internet addiction. The Internet Service Preference Scale for college students includes three dimensions: extended service,information service and entertainment service. The information service preference plays partially mediating role between disinhibition dimension of sensation seeking and Internet addiction. This study suggested that disinhibition dimension of sensation seeking could not only directly influence Internet addiction for college students but indirectly impact on Internet addiction through Internet entertainment service preference.

Key words: sensation seeking;Internet service preference;Internet addiction;mediating effect
