Abstract
The time spent on-screen has become a global concern in the past decade especially Post COVID 19 pandemic. The exposure of young adults to screens, technological gadgets and internet has particularly become a major concern to the educational and psychological fraternity. This over use of technological gadgets like mobiles and laptops is breaking the connection of youth with reality and thereby poses a grave threat to their mental well - being and relationships. The present study aims to explore the relationship between the on-screen time and social anxiety among college students. A sample of 110 students aged 18-25 from accredited higher education institutions were taken using convenience sampling. The Social Avoidance and Distress Scale, a 28-item questionnaire was used to measure the level of social anxiety of the sample. The results indicated a significant difference in social anxiety of males and females, with females experiencing a much higher levels of social anxiety. However, ETA correlation indicated no relationship between on-screen time and social anxiety of the college students. Percentage analysis revealed that over half of the sample (54.55%) had an On-Screen timing of 10 hours or more. Males had longer on-screen time duration whereas females exhibited higher social anxiety.
