“…In other words, as the MTU increases, APB also increases. This result coincides with the findings of existing literature Günlü & Ceyhan, 2017;Yurdakoş & Biçer, 2019). In the literature, there exists other studies showing that MTU predicts APB (He, 2017;Rashmei & Khosravi, 2016;Rozgonjuk, Kattago, & Täht, 2018).…”

“…In another study, students who tend to show APB use media and technologies more often comparing with the others with no or less APB (Rozgonjuk et al, 2018). Similar studies found positive and significant association between problematic Internet use and APB Günlü & Ceyhan, 2017, Yurdakoş & Biçer, 2019. More specifically, students who are members of social media sites are more engaged with social media, and as the usage time of social media sites increases, engagement with social media increases (Teyfur et al, 2017).…”

“…The literature suggested that intensive use of media and technology results in the postponement of academic tasks and, consequently, the emergence of APB (Akdemir, 2013;Ergenç, 2011;Günlü & Ceyhan, 2017;Gür et al, 2018;Gürültü, 2016;Uzun, 2016). Specifically, studies unearth the negative association between social media usage and AA (Anand, 2007;Chen & Peng, 2008;Felisoni & Godoi, 2018;Jacobsen & Forste, 2011;Junco, 2012;Lepp, Barkley & Karpinski, 2014;Leyrer-Jackson & Wilson, 2017;Paul et al, 2012).…”

In today’s learning society, use of media and technology affects students in all educational levels. There are a number of studies conducted among university students in this context. However, adolescents, who are sensitively exposed to the negative effects of the excessive use of media and technology, have been neglected. The aim of this study is to investigate the association among adolescents’ use of media and technology, their academic procrastination behavior, and academic achievement. This study also examines the possible mediating effect of academic procrastination behavior on the relationship between adolescents’ media and technology use and academic achievement. This quantitative study included data from 1278 middle and high school students. We collected data via a questionnaire comprising of the demographic information form, media and technology usage and attitude scale, and academic procrastination behavior scale as well as students’ grade point averages to measure students’ academic achievement. The results revealed that as media and technology usage increased, students’ academic achievement decreased. In addition, academic procrastination behavior had a mediating effect on this relationship. In other words, adolescents' media and technology use cause academic procrastination behaviour to adversely affect their academic achievement. The implications for future research and the limitations of the study were also discussed

“…The most common use of the internet is between the ages of 16-24 and coincidence with adolescence (Anlayisli & Serin, 2017), the increase in internet use compared to previous years (TÜİK, 2019) makes it easier to start the addiction process in early ages (Cengizhan, 2005;Ceyhan, 2008;Doğan, 2013) and is considered as an important risk factor in the rapid development of addiction (Gürcan, 2010;Ögel, 2012;Taylan & Işik, 2015). Due to the effects of the general development characteristics of adolescence on the individual (Arisoy, 2009;Cunningham, Gulliver, Farrer, Bennett, & Carron-Arthur, 2014;Ögel, 2014;Machado, Bruck, Cat, Soares, & Silva, 2018) focuses more attention on internet addiction, which is described as a kind of behavior problem and causes the formation of various psychological symptoms (Arisoy, 2009;Caplan, 2006;Çetin & Ceyhan, 2014;Ögel, 2014;McCord, Rodebaugh, & Levinson, 2014;Machado et al, 2018;Vries, Nakamae, Fukui, Denys, & Narumoto, 2018;Tahiroğlu, Çelik, Bahali, & Avci, 2010). When the literature is analyzed in the literature, it is stated that internet use triggers a high level of emotional loneliness in individuals (Odaci & Kalkan, 2010) and low rates of positive emotions (Koç, 2017); shyness in adolescents (Ayas, 2012), loneliness (Batigün & Hasta, 2010;Esen & Siyez, 2011;Ümmet & Ekşi, 2016), anxiety (Evren, Dalbudak, Evren, & Çiftçi-Demirci, 2014;Jie et al, 2014) recently fear of missing developments in social settings , state of violence (Yayan, Suna-Dağ, & Düken, 2019), social appearance anxiety (Tras, Öztemel, & Baltaci, 2019), depression …”
