الامن النفسي وعلاقته بالدافعية لدى المراغق المتمدرس

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between social media addiction and psychological alienation among school-aged adolescents in Algeria. Using a descriptive method, the study employed a random sample of 100 adolescents and utilized the Social Media Addiction Scale and Psychological Alienation Scale. The results showed a significant positive correlation (r = 0.531) between social media addiction and psychological alienation. However, no significant gender differences were found in either social media addiction or psychological alienation. The study highlights the need for awareness and intervention regarding the psychological impacts of social media use among adolescents.
