Ortaokul Öğrencilerinde Algılanan Anne-Baba ve Öğretmen Akademik Katılımı ile Akademik Erteleme Davranışı Arasındaki İlişkide Akıllı Telefon Bağımlılığının Rolü

Abstract

The main aim of this research is to examine the role of smartphone addiction in the relationship between perceived parental and teacher academic involvement and academic procrastination behavior among middle school students. The data for the research were collected from 590 students who study in middle schools in Odunpazarı district of Eskişehir through personal information forms and scales. The scales used in the study consist of items that inquire about the levels of perceived parental and teacher academic involvement, academic procrastination behavior and smartphone addiction of the students. In line with the aims of the research, the data were analyzed using the SPSS 22.0 package program. Descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and regression analysis were used to answer the research questions. According to the results obtained from the study, it was determined that middle school students’ levels of perceived parental and teacher academic involvement were above average, their levels of smartphone addiction were below average and finally their frequency of academic procrastination behavior was below average. As a result of the study, it was determined that there were negative and statistically significant relationships between perceived parental and teacher academic involvement and the academic procrastination behavior of students. As a result of the regression analyses conducted for the main purpose of the research, it was revealed that smartphone addiction partially mediated both the effect of perceived parental academic involvement on academic procrastination behavior and the effect of perceived teacher academic involvement on academic procrastination behavior. Within the scope of the study, it was suggested to examine other possible variables that may cause academic procrastination behavior, which is one of the most important factors that negatively affect student success.
