Academic self-efficacy and academic procrastination as predictors of problematic internet
use in university students
ABSTRACT
A
Although computers and the internet, indispensable tools in people’s lives today,
facilitate life on the one hand, they have brought new risks with them on the other. Internet
dependency, or problematic internet use, has emerged as a new concept of addiction. Parallel
to this increasing in society in general, it is also on the rise among university students and is
widely believed to have a negative impact on their lives. The aim of this study was to investigate
whether academic self-efficacy and academic procrastination can act as predictors of
problematic internet use among university students. The study group consisted of 398 students
attending education, medicine, architecture and economics programs at the Karadeniz
Technical University in Turkey. The Problematic Internet Use Scale, Academic Self-efficacy Scale,
Academic Procrastination Scale and a Personal Data Form were used as scaling instruments.
Pearson’s correlation coefficient, multiple regression analysis, independent samples t-test and
one-way ANOVA were used to analyse the data collected. The results show a significant
negative correlation between academic self-efficacy and problematic internet use, while the
relation between problematic internet use and academic procrastination was not statistically
significant. Furthermore, academic self-efficacy was determined to be a significant predictor of
problematic internet use. The results also show a significant difference in problematic internet
use in terms of students’ programs, though levels of problematic internet use did not differ in
terms of sex or ownership of a computer. These findings are discussed in the light of the
relevant literature and some new directions for further studies are suggested.
INTRODUCTION
B
The internet, widely used in educational environments, is an important teaching and
2

learning resource when used in a manner appropriate to its aims. Thanks to the internet,
students can easily access the materials they need for their work and obtain information by
different routes. However, as with all technologies, in addition to facilitating individuals’ lives to
a considerable extent the internet also brings problems with it; in particular, unhealthy or
improper use of the internet may be described as a negativity that has begun affecting social
life. “Healthy internet use” has been described as internet use in order to achieve a specific
purpose, within an appropriate time frame, involving no emotional or behavioural disorder.
However, the number of “problematic internet users” to whom the concept of health provided
in this definition does not apply is also too great to ignore. Researchers have at various times
referred to this in the literature as “internet dependence”, “internet addiction”, “pathological
internet use” and “problematic internet use”. The common point in these descriptions involves
such indicators as spending excessive time on the internet, a state of distress and irritability in
situations when internet use is not available and feeling the need to spend even more time
online.
C
Internet use is highest in the 16-24 age groups, and this suggests that university
students, at a critical time in terms of their social and emotional development, are a potential
risk group for internet dependence. The fact that internet access is easier and faster in the
university environment increases the likelihood of university students being affected by the
negative consequences of the internet. Remaining online for a long period of time, without
being aware of the passage of time, in other words, problematic internet use, can soon lead to
tasks the individual needs to complete being postponed in an unrealistic manner. There are
major inconsistencies between the aims and behaviour of individuals with postponement
problems. Such people appear to approach the tasks to be performed with good intentions and
determination, but they fail to make good their intentions over the long-term and even to
embark on them on time. Academic procrastination, one variant of general procrastination, is a
problem in such areas as preparing for exams in school, doing homework and holding meetings
with student counsellors and completing projects.

D
Academic success is very important for students, whose aim in attending university is to
obtain the diploma necessary to enter a profession. Students’ belief in their academic self-
efficacy and their ability to begin and continue their studies is also highly important. Academic
self-efficacy is a belief regarding the student’s ability to successfully complete an academic task.
Academic self-efficacy is one important variable in the estimation of student success. In the
light of the above, we think that students need to use the internet in a healthy way, otherwise
they will encounter difficulties in displaying a good academic performance and that their belief
in their academic self-efficacy will be impaired and academic procrastination behaviour may
increase.
E
Studies have examined the correlation between problematic internet use and
depression, anxiety and psychomotor agitation, loneliness and social anxiety, hostility,
intolerance and obstinacy, shyness, locus of control, antisocial trends and social adaptation,
social self-efficacy and academic locus of control, dating anxiety, academic performance,
psychiatric symptoms, parent—adolescent conflict, low family function, psychological well-being,
anger, strain and tiredness but we encountered no studies setting out the relationship between
problematic internet use and academic self-efficacy and academic procrastination. Bearing in
mind the negative impacts of problematic internet use on academic success, we hypothesized it
would also be correlated with academic self-efficacy and academic procrastination. The findings
obtained will make a significant contribution to the determination of therapeutic measures
directed toward young people. This study was intended to investigate, in the light of a number
of problematic internet use variables, whether a belief in academic self-efficacy and academic
procrastination are predictive of problematic internet use.
METHODS
STUDY GROUP
F
The study group consisted of 398 students studying at the Karadeniz Technical
University, Turkey, Faculties of Medicine, Education, Architecture and Economic and
Administrative Sciences. Two hundred sixteen (54.3%) were female and 182 (45.7%) male. Ages

ranged between 18 and 28, with a mean of 20.34 (SD: 1.47).
DATA COLLECTION
PROBLEMATIC INTERNET USAGE SCALE
G
The PIUS was developed to measure problematic internet use levels among university
students, the PIUS was developed as a dimensional, quantitative scale based on individual self-
assessment showing a spectrum of internet use from normal to pathological. The scale consists
of 33 items. Possible scores range from 33 to 165, higher scores indicating that individuals’
internet use is increasingly unhealthy, that is it has a negative impact on their lives and may give
rise to a tendency to pathology, such as internet dependence. Scale factor analysis results
revealed the three sub-factors of which it consists, “negative consequences of the internet,”
“social benefit/social comfort” and “excessive use.” Together, these three factors constitute
48.96% of total variance. Scale internal consistency coefficient was (a) 0.94. The internal
consistency coefficient of the scale regarding the data collected from our study group was (a)
0.93, while those of the three factors constituting the scale were 0.93, 0.84 and 0.73,
respectively.
ACADEMIC SELF-EFFICACY SCALE (ASS)
H
The ASS was developed by Jerusalem and Schwarzer (1981) to measure university
students’ self-efficacy with regard to academic learning, the scale was adapted into Turkish by
Yilmaz et al. (2007). The ASS is a one-dimensional Likert-type scale consisting of 7 items.
Possible scores range from 7 to 28. High scores indicate that subjects have a high level of belief
in their self-efficacy regarding learning. The original scale has a Cronbach Alpha reliability value
of 0.87, while that adapted into Turkish has a value of 0.79.
ACADEMIC PROCRASTINATION SCALE
|
The APS was developed by Cakici (2003) with the aim of determining students’ academic
procrastination behaviour, the scale consists of 19 statements, 12 negative and 7 positive,
involving tasks students have a responsibility to perform in their academic lives. The APS has a

1.6 Page 6

▲back to top


Cronbach Alpha reliability coefficient of 0.92. Cronbach Alpha coefficients calculated for the
scale’s first and second factors are 0.89 and 0.84, respectively.
PERSONAL DATA FORM
J
The Personal Data Form was developed by the authors and consists of questions about
age, sex, faculty attended and computer ownership.
DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS
K
Scales were administered to students in groups, in a class environment. Before
administration of the scales, students were given the requisite information about the aim of the
research and how the measurement scales should be answered. Firstly, the relations between
students’ problematic internet use and academic self-efficacy and academic procrastination
were investigated. Then, it was investigated whether problematic internet use differed
significantly according to the independent variables in the personal information form. Data
were analysed using SPSS 15.00. Pearson’s Product Moments Correlation Coefficient, multiple
linear regression analysis, the independent t-test and one-way ANOVA were used for data
analysis. Significance was set at a minimum of 0.05, while other significance levels (0.01 and
0.001) are also shown.
DISCUSSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
L
The data obtained from this investigation into the relations between problematic
internet use and academic self-efficacy and academic procrastination show a significant
negative correlation between problematic internet use and academic self-efficacy, but no
significant correlation between problematic internet use and academic procrastination. In
addition, we concluded that academic self-efficacy could account for problematic internet use,
but that academic procrastination made no significant contribution to problematic internet use.
The literature contains studies that directly and indirectly support our findings. Studies on this
subject have reported that because of the attractive nature of the internet the more time many
people who spend a large part of their time online the more their productivity in their school or

1.7 Page 7

▲back to top


working lives decreases. In a study of 572 university students, Kubey, Lavin, and Barrows (2001)
determined that just over 9% of students were internet dependent and that the academic
performance of dependent students was four times lower than that of non-dependent
students, and also those dependent students were significantly lonelier than other students. In
another study, Young (2008) reported problems such as impaired organization, reduced study
success and having to take years again in 58% of students with internet use dependency.
Bdltikbas (2003) reported that cyber cafe users were, toa large extent, students and that 67.3%
spent more time than planned online, one of the main internet dependency criteria. Since
students who exhibit problematic internet use are constantly concentrated on the net and
spend a very large part of their time on line, we think they are unable to devote sufficient time
to their academic work and studies and that they constantly postpone the academic work they
should be doing, as a result of which the academic failure they experience causes a decline in
their belief in their academic self-efficacy.
M
Another finding from the study is that there is no sex difference between university
student problematic internet use levels. Alongside studies in the literature showing no
difference between the sexes in problematic internet use there are also studies revealing
greater problematic internet use among females than males. There is currently an increase in
computer use among university students of both sexes. Because of easy access to computers
and the internet, thanks to the increasing technological progress being made every day and the
meeting of every-day needs by means of the internet in various spheres, such as education,
entertainment, communications and shopping have made the computer an indispensable tool
for both male and female students.
N
The findings in our study show that problematic internet use does not vary in terms of
computer ownership. No similar or conflicting findings were encountered in the literature.
Studies performed have more shown a correlation with length of computer use (Scherer, 1997).
There is no need for university students to possess a computer to be able to access the internet.
They can do this from friends’ computers, university laboratories or cyber cafes.

1.8 Page 8

O
Another variable considered in this study is the faculty attended. A significant difference
in terms of problematic internet use was determined among the faculties included in the study.
Medicine was the faculty with the lowest problematic internet use scores, followed by
architecture. The faculties with the highest problematic internet use scores were education and
economic management sciences. Ozcan and Buzlu (2007) also determined a higher level of
problematic internet use among students of social sciences. The findings in the literature
support those from this research. This may be ascribed to the academic and practical intensity
of medical faculty students’ school programs and to their therefore having less free time
available. The favourable result from the faculty of architecture may be interpreted as due to
the intense nature of project and drawing assignments involved. Education and economic
management sciences faculties, which bear a close affinity to social science, are less intensive
compared to medical and architectural faculties and the projects and assignments given are
more suited to being carried out ina computer environment, which suggests that these findings
may be ascribed to this.
P
The conclusion from this study is that as problematic internet use rises, academic self-
efficacy declines. In addition, no significant correlation was determined between academic
procrastination and problematic internet use. These findings clarify the relationship between
academic self-efficacy and academic procrastination and problematic internet use.
Q
There are some limitations to this study. In particular, the participants were university
students, and this research could be repeated with other student populations. This study has
established one fact, that there is a need to research to investigate and determine the reasons
for problematic internet use. We investigated the relations between problematic internet use
and academic self-efficacy and academic procrastination, and those between other variables
and problematic internet use could also be investigated. We hope that our findings will
contribute to the preparation of programs to prevent problematic internet use among
university students in the future. Bearing in mind that problematic internet use is a cognitive
feature, we also think that cognitive-behavioural therapies will play a role in overcoming this

‘Vocational education can create jobs'
The Namibian, Business | 2019-03-22 Page no: 18
TJIPENANDJAMBI KUHANGA
(ADAPTED)

2.2 Page 12

TECHNICAL and vocational education is a way of creating jobs, particularly among the youth,
Standard Bank's head of marketing Magreth Mengo says.
Mengo, who was speaking at the launch of the 2019 national skills competition organised by
the Namibia Training Authority (NTA) in Windhoek a fortnight ago, said research had shown
that technical and vocational education and training (TVET) is important for promoting
economic development, expanding employment numbers, as well as improving the quality
of employment, innovation and entrepreneurship.
“This is especially important for a country like Namibia, which continues to export its natural
resources in raw form, and yet it is faced with a very high level of youth unemployment,”
she stated.
Mengo observed that vocational education and training is a very important sub-component
of the education system, but was neglected in the early years of independence, and is
generally shunned by both parents and students alike. This situation is exacerbated by
societal perceptions that such career options are dirty, low-paying, of low status and do not
offer any opportunities for personal growth and advancement.
“But it is important to highlight that no nation has ever developed without the backbone of
a strong vocational education system. The most industrialised countries such as Germany,
Japan, China, the UK, USA and South Korea are well-known for their well-run vocational
education and training systems,” she added.
Meanwhile, the 2019 national skills competition will feature 13 occupational skills areas in
automotive technology, bricklaying, carpentry, welding, cooking, electrical installations,
joinery, hairdressing, refrigeration and air-conditioning, plumbing, restaurant services, as
well as wall and floor tiling. Additionally, 14 industry-sourced workshop coordinators, who
will serve as technical advisers, will be deployed. Next year Office Administration and

Information and Communication Technology will be added to this skills list.
Although technical and vocational training is essential to our country’s development, many
Namibians erroneously regard these qualifications and careers as inferior. Given the above
background information, imagine that your town or village is situated far from one of the
country’s TVET centres. You do, however, believe that better access to such training will greatly
increase employment opportunities in your area and help towards the eradication of poverty.
You are drafting a recommendation report to be submitted to the Minister of Higher Education,
Training and Innovation, in which you outline the need for a TVET centre in your town, and the
three most important technical and/or vocational skills that should be taught there.
Write the following sections of the report to complete it; use appropriate headings and
numbering for each section, where applicable:
a) The title of the report
(2)
b) The introduction section of the report, in which you provide some background
information, the purpose of the report, and the report overview
(4)
c) The conclusion section of the report, with all required elements included

d) The recommendations section of the report, which should include at least two
recommendations

The Arctic fox is compareble in size to the domestic cat. It inhabits the so-called “kingdom of
the polar bear” the area midway between Norway and the North Pole. This canine predators
adapt to extreme weather conditions. During the winter months, it’s white coat is an ideal
camouflage in these rough northern climates. The Arctic fox can roam all winter without
hibernating its fur is the most thick of all Arctic mammals. Its insulation enable it to survive,

even though winter temperatures normally drop to 50 degrees celsius. When nutrition
becomes scarce, the Arctic fox may follow polar bears as they pursue seels on the perilous sea
ice. This strategy is hazardous not only because of the possibility of falling into freezing water,
but also because polar bears will pray on Arctic foxes if they can catch them.

Although wells often have visible debris floating in them, they are nevertheless, utilised
as drinking water without treatment as explained by Wanke et al. (2014: p, 120) that:
Contamination is enhanced by a lack of sanitation or waste-water
treatment systems in the rural areas. This lack of adeveloped water supply
system in some parts of the region increases the risk of water-borne
infection in these areas because people utilize water from hand-dug wells
for household use regardless of its quality and safety.
