- Abstract
This study seeks to investigate how mobile phone addiction affects academic performance. It focuses on mobile phone addiction, including internet addiction, game addiction, and ‘mobile youth culture.’ In this study, a conventional survey using a questionnaire was distributed face-to-face to 200 students in Petaling Jaya aged ranging from 13 to 17 years old. The Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS - 21) software was used to analyse survey respondent data and sample distribution. Both genders and age groups were studied to identify the connection between mobile phone addiction and academic achievement. A review of the survey results revealed that students who are addicted to mobile phones received lower grades in school. Thus, addiction to mobile phones has a negative impact on academic performance. This study focuses on a contemporary phenomenon, it is hoped that the findings and discussion instrument contribute to current literary works and help future researchers to better understand the relationship between mobile phone addiction and academic performance.
