Problem and it’s Backgrounds
Introduction
Over the years technology has been evolving continuously. People now rely heavily on
gadgets in our daily lives. In terms of communication, information access, entertainment,
education, health, and transportation, it improves our lives. It has been useful to
humankind in many ways and it contributed to several advancements making our life
easier and enjoyable. The advancement of technology has led to the creation of brand-
new modern technology like cellphones, high-end laptops and others.
In today’s modern world, adults and kids are also overly reliant on technology devices,
whether they be TVs, smartphones, laptops, or tablets, etc. According to Laricchia (2023)
the number of mobile devices operating worldwide stood at almost 16.8 billion. In 2023 and
it increased from just over 15.96 billion in the previous year 2022. Cellphones or wireless
devices are at the top of the list and are the most popular electronic gadget worldwide and
also the top gadgets that use in learning of the students in 2023, pretty much all (96.8%)
consumers own a mobile phone . According to Kemp (2023) Meanwhile, in the Philippines,
the total of mobile phone users has a total of 168.3 million.
Many people use technology because of its great help, especially in education .
Technology have become essential tool in education. With the help of gadgets teachers
and students are now able to access and share information, work together on projects, and
engage with educational material in innovative ways. Students have an access to the
technology can expand their knowledge or broadens their mind more. They can look to
interactive lessons, educational videos, app and search engines by electric gadgets. You
can even participate in online seminars from inside of your own house thanks to
technological advancements. Gadgets may be used for enjoyment and stress reliever
aside from the field of education.
Student study habits and the way their learning have drastically changed .On the other
hand, study habits are considered how a student organizes his or her private reading,
outside of lecture hours, in order to become an expert on a particular topic ,the way that
the students learning has changed as a result of technology. Now that students may
access almost all material that is accessible to everyone from the comfort of their homes
through the Internet, the days of slaving over books in the library and taking notes on
paper are long gone. There is no need for them to travel or even visit a library. The Internet
has scanned many books, so all you need to do is search and click to access the results.
However, excessive gadget usage can also lead to several challenges that adversely
affect students’ study habits. Multimedia devices like the iPad, Android phone, and PC,
where almost all of games can be downloaded, have monopolized a lot of students’
attention and free time at home and in school. .One significant concern is the potential
distraction caused by gadgets, but it can also serve as a distraction from developing solid
study habits. Just the presence of a smartphone, according to studies, can affect cognitive
function when attempting to accomplish their other tasks. Social media platforms, addictive
games, and endless entertainment options can easily divert students’ attention away from
their studies, leading to decreased focus and productivity. Constant notifications, alerts,
and the allure of instant gratification can create a constant battle for attention, ultimately
hindering students’ ability to concentrate and retain information effectively
Considering the potential risks associated with excessive gadget usage, it is crucial for
educators, parents, and students themselves to be aware of the balance needed in
incorporating technology into the academic environment. By understanding the potential
consequences and implementing strategies to promote responsible gadget usage,
educators and parents can help senior high school students effectively manage their digital
lives while maintaining a focus on their studies.
Nowadays, not only the study habits of the students who use excessively gadgets that are
being affected but also lowered human interaction it changes how they interact with their
classmates and teachers. The presence of these electronic devices has an important
influence on the quality of our interactions with those around us. Children and students
who play violent video games for a long amount of time tend to be more aggressive. Such
youngsters are more likely to confront their instructors, peers, and their relatives
There are several devices that simplify our living, and this technology enhances the
efficiency of students. While there are some benefits to these devices, there are also
disadvantages as well. That is students become addicted to gaming, texting, or talking on
the phone or online, which interferes with their learning and causes them to skip their
studies at home. At this point, it is up to the students to decide whether they develop bad
study habits and a lazy attitude or learn useful skills. Additionally, it causes students to
lose sight of their basic learning because they completely rely on the internet instead of
books and ask instructors for .
This study shows how excessive use of gadgets can affect the study habits of Senior High
school students at Victory Elijah Christian College (VECC) As the title said. While gadgets
and technology undoubtedly bring numerous benefits to education, their excessive use can
have a detrimental impact on the study habits and academic performance of senior high
school students. Senior high school is a crucial stage in a student’s academic journey as
they prepare for higher education and future careers.The irresponsible gadget usage can
have a poor mental or physical health and poor study habits.Technology can have
negative impact to their focus on their educational journey. We must find ways to reduce
the negative impact of these electronic devices and how to minimize the use of gadgets by
students.
Statement of the problem.
This study is aim to determine “The effect of Excessive use of Gadgets in the Study of
Senior High School Students of Elijah Christian College for the effects of Excessive Use
of Gadgets in The Study Habits of The Students”.
1. What are the effects of excessive use of in the study habits of the students ?
2. What are the different types of gadgets that students use the most in their study?
3. How to minimize the excessive use of gadgets?
Theoretical Framework
The widespread use of gadgets in today’s society has significantly impacted the lives of
individuals, particularly among the younger generation. Senior high school students are
increasingly exposed to and reliant on gadgets for various purposes, including
communication, entertainment, and education. This research aims to determine the
effect of excessive use of gadgets on the study habits of senior high school students by
focusing on two key theories: Self-Regulation Theory and Technostress.
Self-Regulation Theory
Zimmerman is an educational researcher at the City University of New York and
Zimmermann’s self-regulation theory suggests that people possess the capability to
manage their cognitive processes, affective responses, and actions to attain their
objectives. The way students utilize their gadgets is heavily influenced by their ability to
self-regulate, making it a vital factor in this study. Overusing electronic devices can
hinder students’ self-discipline, resulting in adverse effects on their educational routines.
People who are able to govern themselves effectively in learning processes possess
certain traits, as detailed by Zimmerman (2000), including setting defined objectives,
creating approaches to achieve those objectives, and keeping track of their own
advancement. They possess the ability to adapt and modify their approaches through
self-evaluation and response from others. Overuse of electronic devices can disrupt
these procedures, as students can be easily sidetracked by the never-ending flow of
notifications and stimuli from their gadgets. As a consequence, there may be a decline
in their capacity to concentrate on educational responsibilities, efficiently handle their
schedule, and sustain their drive for acquiring knowledge. In addition, regulating oneself
requires the utilization of cognitive approaches like organizing, supervising, and
assessing one’s own acquisition of knowledge (Zimmerman, 2000).
Frequent use of electronic devices among students can interfere with their ability to think
about their own thinking, as they may prioritize responding to device notifications instead
of deliberately pursuing their goals. An outcome of this could be a reduction in their
capacity to plan and coordinate their study sessions, keep track of their understanding
and progress, and assess the efficacy of their learning approaches.As a result, the
frequent utilization of electronic devices by students can impede the development and
sustenance of efficient learning routines, ultimately leading to a detrimental effect on
their study habits or academic performance.
Technostress
The term Technostress was first coined by Brod in 1984 and it pertains to the stress that
people may undergo as a result of the persistent exposure to and utilization of
technology. The students who use gadgets excessively may develop Technostress that
could have an adverse effect on their mental health and, as a result, their study habits.
Brod is a Visiting Clinical Lecturer in Law at Yale Law School and a partner at Cleary
Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP, and he published the book “ Technostress ” And
according to brod there are multiple factors that play a role in causing Technostress,
such as excessive information, fast-moving technological advancements, and the
intrusion into individual privacy. The study suggests that if students overuse their
electronic devices, they could become inundated with an excessive amount of
information, which may hinder their ability to properly comprehend and retain academic
material. Furthermore, the perpetual requirement to stay current with modern technology
might induce a feeling of stress and unease among pupils, amplifying their level of
strain.
Technostress can exhibit itself in various physical symptoms such as eyestrain,
headaches, and trouble sleeping (Brod 1984). These symptoms. Ultimately hinder the
student’s focus and performance in their study habits. Additionally, the uninterrupted
access provided by technology devices may blur the distinction between students’
academic and personal realms, resulting in a difficulty to detach from technology and
establish a sustainable balance between work and leisure..
Technostress could have adverse effects on students’ study habits by hindering their
focus on studies, hindering their time management skills, and disrupting their work-life
equilibrium.
This theoretical framework provides a foundation for understanding the potential
consequences of excessive use of gadgets on the study habits of senior high school
students at victory Elijah Christian College. By examining the relationships between
excessive use of gadgets, self-regulation and Technostress, this research aims to
contribute to the existing body of knowledge on the impact of technology on students.

According to Rahayu and Dewi (2023), a society that relies heavily on technology,
especially cellphones, for everyday chores. This is due to the fact that technology, in the
form of smartphones and applications, is available everywhere. Children of the Z
generation are also getting more and more dependent on technology, demonstrating
that the trend is not just present in adults. In order to prevent children from using
gadgets excessively, this study emphasizes the need of parents and teachers having a
solid awareness of technology usage, digital content and information dissemination, and
the hazards and changes brought about by advances in technology. However, many
parents appear to be unaware of the numerous detrimental implications that this
excessive usage of technology by kids may have, such as screen addiction, behavioral
problems, early development, and more.
Based on Anizar Rahayu and dewi technology device has been used in the new
generation not only in the adults. However, this excessive use of gadgets by children
has several negative effects in this generation who use gadgets and because students
used gadgets in learning the parents became unaware of the demitrinal effects of

According to Balistoy and Murcia (2019)Although gadgets are incredibly helpful, they
can sometimes have drawbacks. Frequent use of these devices may cause students to
lose interest in learning, which frequently results in low grades. However, it is
impossible to deny that gadgets make our lives more pleasurable and comfortable.
Whoever possesses one of these pieces of technology is happy with it and tends to
spend their time online or playing video games, unconcerned with whether or not their
grades have deteriorated. Our ability to be active, communicate with people, and mental
health can all be negatively impacted by addictive technology. People frequently use
these devices excessively, which can lead to eye fatigue or other health problems. If we
don’t use gadgets responsibly, they could hurt us.
Based on Axl Balistoy and Francis Murcia Gadgets are incredibly helpful to make our
lives easier. But according to them using gadgets excessively can cause a health
problems and they could hurt us.
According to Pinon etc.(2019) The role of gadgets in today’s world is crucial. It is
incredibly useful and makes everyone’s work easier. It is always evolving and improving
over time. Gadgets have had a significant impact on everyone, especially on lifestyle
and study habits. We have become so accustomed to them that it is quite challenging
for us to complete projects or concentrate on our studies without them
Based to Chris Pinon and Liezel Planas gadgets have impact on everyone specially on
lifestyle and study habits that challenging us to concentrate to studies without them.It
said that we need to do our school works without the help of any devices for us to
become a dependent students.
According to Antigo(2021) The understudies generally utilized different electronic
contraption
Principally versatile/cellphones and PC. The utilization of electronic devices in all
actuality do meaningfully affect understudies’ family relationship, but rare on
understudies’ medical issue and furthermore with understudies’ review propensities
separately. In addition, this study reveals that age, gender, and grade levels of students
have no significant impact on the use of electronic devices in relation to family
relationships or study habits. However, the effects of using electronic devices on health
conditions vary significantly depending on the grade level of the students. Additionally, it
was likewise observed that there is irrelevant connection between the scholastic
execution and the degree of impacts on the utilization of electronic devices as to family
connections, wellbeing and study propensities. In this study, parents are encouraged to
keep an eye on how their kids use electronic devices; that the students should use the
electronic device for educational purposes and occasionally for leisure purposes.
Based to Cristina Antigo and Marie De Guzman electronic devices had a impact to our
studies that why parents are the responsible to encourage and keep an eye on how
their kids use electronic devices for their study. But sometimes students need to control
themselves in using gadgets .
According to Sia and Tabelon (2022) Some people in the modern era struggle to
envision life without electronics. Every student now owns at least one device, which
they can use throughout the day and carry wherever they go depending on its purpose.
People would occasionally find ways to use gadgets, such as in school, at work, and
many other places. We overuse it and depend on it for the majority of our lives since it
is so easy and effective. Although gadgets have made many great contributions to our
society, overspending on them could harm our physical and mental health. Gadgets are
one of the many things that have their opposites.
Based on Mikee Sia and Kryy Tabelon Students has a gadgets that can use anytime
but by using gadgets excessively can affect our physical and mental health . Gadgets
can help a lot of people specially students but gadgets have a negative impact in
everyone.
According to Adan and Villanueva etc.(2021)The reason why students spend ten hours
a day using their gadgets is because they spend much of that time playing mobile
games and utilizing social media apps, which causes them to lose track of time.
Additionally, because students take online classes and use technology for schoolwork,
they occasionally are unable to resist spending a lot of time in front of the computer.
Various health issues are being experienced by students as a result of their use of
technology. They are experiencing headaches, back pain, impaired vision, and eye
strain. They also notice certain changes in their behavior, such as feeling more
lethargic, easily agitated, and uninterested in engaging in exciting activities.
Based to Shiella Adan and Ethel Villanueva students spending to much time on
gadgets which causes them to lose track of time for school work . according to them
gadgets can affect students learning and gadgets can effect our health.
