Özet

The study's goal is to comprehend how internet addiction affects students' academic performance. However, very few research has been able to explain how excessive internet use causes students to lose interest in their academic work. Many studies have examined the detrimental association between addictions and academic performance. This research consists of two factors: internet addiction (emotional and cognitive preoccupation with internet and loss of control and interference with daily life) and academic engagement (enthusiasm and commitment). Through questionnaires, data was gathered from 186 students at a higher institution in Nigeria. Both correlation and regression were used to evaluate the data. The results of the investigation demonstrated that internet addiction significantly and unfavorably affects enthusiasm and commitment. It's interesting to note that internet obsession on an emotional or cognitive level was not shown to be a reliable indicator of internet addiction or loss of control.
