- Abstract
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an abrupt migration to virtual classes requiring the students to use technology more and constantly, and therefore, a risk of addiction in its use with its respective academic consequences. In the present study, 250 university students participated to explore 1) the significant differences by sex in academic procrastination and addiction to social networks, as well as 2) the association between both phenomena. Differences were found in self-regulation and problems due to the use of social networks, and significant correlations between the dimensions of both constructs. It would be important, among other things, for teachers to participate in promoting self-regulation of these problem behaviors.
