Internet addiction reducing students' interest in studies, increasing mental anxiety

With the rapid development of technology, the world is now in the palm of our hands. However, the excessive use of technology that has made human life easier has now become a new cause for concern for students. Experts say that excessive use of the internet and digital devices is reducing students' interest in studies, negatively impacting academic results, and creating risks for mental health. Recent research from Swansea University in the UK and McMaster University in Canada has found that excessive internet use is leading to decreased concentration, reluctance to study, and increased social isolation and mental anxiety among students.
