A recent observation indicates Indonesian students routinely use social media platforms like TikTok, WhatsApp, and Instagram during study time, often checking notifications reflexively. This pervasive use suggests a significant impact on the behavior of the younger generation. The study aims to analyze the psychological effects of this constant connectivity. Researchers are investigating how these platforms influence attention spans, social interactions, and overall well-being among students. Preliminary findings suggest a correlation between extensive social media engagement and altered behavioral patterns. Further research will explore the long-term consequences of these digital habits on academic performance and mental health. The study intends to provide insights into navigating the challenges and opportunities presented by social media in the modern educational landscape.
