In order to test the hypothesis, the correlation analysis was conducted. The results showed that research participants with high self-regulated learning were 44.4% (n=122), while those with the medium category were 52% (n=143) and those with low categories were 3.6% (n=10). The research participants with the intention to use social media in the high category were 17.1% (n=47), in the medium category are 74.9% (n=206) and in the low category are 8.0 % (n=22).
