Abstract

Though it is a common sensation felt by people of all ages and cultures, the importance of boredom is sometimes underappreciated in favour of stronger emotions like joy or sadness. This essay explores boredom as a multifaceted phenomenon with two facets: predictable monotony and social rhythm problems. The study investigates boredom among college students using a mixed-methods approach that includes surveys, focus groups, and interviews, exposing its ubiquitous nature and variety of reasons. According to research, boredom is becoming more and more common in contemporary culture, which is made worse by the quick speed at which technology is developing and the social norm that demands constant participation. There is a strong correlation between stress and boredom, which is indicative of a larger cultural arrhythmia characterised by an unbalanced demand for meaningful connection and efficiency pressures. The study's findings emphasise the significance of understanding boredom as a result of the intricate interactions between personal experiences and society dynamics. This understanding will allow for a reassessment of institutions and social norms in order to promote engagement, creativity, and wellbeing.
