Abstract

Mobile phones have become an essential part of daily life, especially among college students, due to their convenience in communication, entertainment, social networking, and academic activities. However, excessive use of mobile phones may lead to addiction, affecting students’ physical health, mental well-being, academic performance, and social relationships. This study aims to examine the level of mobile phone addiction among college students. The research focuses on identifying the patterns of mobile phone usage, the factors contributing to addiction, and its impact on students’ academic, psychological, and social life. The study may employ a survey method using questionnaires administered to college students from various institutions in the district. Variables such as gender, course of study, duration of mobile phone usage, and purpose of usage are also considered to analyze differences in addiction levels. The findings are expected to provide insights into the prevalence of mobile phone addiction and its consequences among college students. The study further emphasizes the need for awareness programs, counseling services, and healthy digital practices to promote balanced and responsible use of mobile phones among students.
