Brief Summary:
In the digital age, university students are increasingly immersed in a technology-driven environment where smartphones, social media, and various digital platforms play a central role in their daily lives. While these technologies offer significant benefits, such as enhanced connectivity, access to information, and educational resources, they also pose potential risks to mental health. Excessive screen time, constant connectivity, and the pressure to maintain an online presence can lead to negative outcomes, including anxiety, depression, sleep disturbances, and reduced academic performance.
Detailed Description:
Recent research highlights the growing concern over the impact of digital overuse on students' mental well-being. The constant barrage of notifications, the pressure to stay connected, and the addictive nature of social media can create a state of perpetual stress and distraction. This, in turn, can hinder students' ability to focus, engage in meaningful social interactions, and maintain a healthy balance between their academic and personal lives.
A multi-assignment program offers a promising intervention to counteract these negative effects. By encouraging students to disconnect from digital devices and reduce their online engagement temporarily, a digital detox can provide the opportunity to reset their relationship with technology. This period of disconnection allows students to regain control over their time, reduce stress, and foster healthier habits that support their mental well-being.
