Description

The main hypothesis of the study was that there is a negative relationship between dimensions of attachment to school and Internet addiction. The data includes 525 respondents who are high school students in Kosovo, from whom data was collected with a questionnaire on the relationship between the dimensions of attachment to school and internet addiction. The data includes: demographic data, data related to school engagement in 5 dimensions, as well as data related to internet addiction. In the demographic part there are 8 questions, in the part about internet addiction there are 9 questions and for attachment to the school there are 24 questions divided into 5 dimensions. Responses to the Internet addiction scale require responses on a Likert scale: never, rarely, sometimes, often, and always. And those in the questionnaire for attachment to the school are also according to the Likert scale: 1 (strongly disagree), 2 (strongly disagree), 3 (strongly agree), 4 (strongly agree) and 5 (strongly agree). The results of the study suggest that there is a weak negative significant relationship between Internet addiction and dimensions of attachment to school, such as with feelings about school (- 0.283), interest in learning (- 0. 138), attitudes towards teachers (- 0.123 ) and students. school perception (- 0.274). But there was no significant relationship between internet addiction and attitudes towards students (0.058).

But there was no significant relationship between internet addiction and attitudes towards students (0.058). These results make sense because a strong attachment to school implies a lower Internet addiction and vice versa.
