- Abstract
Nowadays, technology addiction poses great risks, especially for adolescents. In this study, the relationship between high school students' technology addiction levels and school belonging feelings was tried to be revealed. For this purpose, the data were collected from 232 students studying at state high schools during in the 2018-2019 academic year in Western Black Sea Region of Turkey. Two scales were used as a data collection tool in the study, and relational screening method was used. The first of these scales is The Technology Addiction Scale and the second is the Sense of Belonging to School Scale. The data obtained from the scales were analyzed using SPSS package program. As a result of the analysis, technology addiction levels of high school students were found to be low. When the addiction level is examined in terms of gender, it was observed that technology addiction levels of male students were higher than female students. It was also found that male students' level of school belonging was lower than female students. When the feeling of rejection is analyzed in terms of gender, it was found that male students felt more rejected than female students. In terms of academic achievement, it was seen that technology addiction negatively affected academic achievement in general. It was concluded that the technology addiction levels of the 10th grade students were higher than the 11th grade students. According to the type of school, the technology addiction levels of vocational high school students were higher compared to students in other high schools, whereas the level of sense of school belonging was lower than the students studying in other high schools. There was a moderate negative correlation between technology addiction and sense of school membership.
