Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris
The objective of this study is to identify the relationship between internet addiction, student behaviour and academic performance of urban secondary school students. This study also aims to examine the prevalence of internet addiction in urban secondary schools. A qualitative research design was used to answer three research questions. Three sets of instruments were used to identify internet addiction and to measure its impact on student behaviour and academic performance. Purposive sampling was used to select ten F4 students as respondents. The non-verbal projective test was interpreted using hermeneutic science. The findings of the data analysis of the Internet Addiction Test (IAT) showed only 50% had mild to moderate addiction. However, the findings of the Loganathan and Sivakumar’s Baum Test (LSBT) test showed 90% had mild to severe addiction. The LSBT projective test provided more information as it accesses the unconscious mind whereas the IAT questionnaire is answered using the conscious mind. In conclusion, this study proposes that the impact of internet addiction is not always negative as the respondents who have internet addiction in this study do not have discipline problems in school. On the contrary this group of students showed high levels of self-discipline and good academic results. The implication of this study is internet addiction can be identified early and intervention can be done to help those who are addicted to the internet. The study has provided a new insight into students who habitually use excessive internet. Teachers can use this information to encourage the use of the internet in a positive manner. School counsellors can use the LSBT to get a better understanding of the students’ discipline problems so that they can be counselled and advised correctly.
