In this paper we investigate factors that affect excessive use of Internet among elementary school students in Vojvodina. The quantitative analysis was performed using datasets from research carried out in 66 elementary schools across Autonomous Province of Vojvodina. Using a large data set on elementary school students, we have tried to describe the profile of students who excessively use Internet. Results reveal the significant impact of using Internet in non-study related purposes for differentiation between students who excessively use Internet and those who do not.
