The Relationship

The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between high school students' digital addiction levels and their inquiry skills. The sample of the study consists of 319 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade high school students chosen by random sampling. Of these students studying in Sivas province schools of Turkey, two are Anatolian High School, and one is an Anatolian Imam Hatip (Religious) High School. 190 of the students are girls (59.6%), and 129 are boys (40.4%). Data were collected through the "Digital Addiction Scale (DAS)" developed by Dilci (2019) and the "Inquiry Skills Scale (ISS)" developed by Aldan Karademir and Saracaloglu (2013). In analyzing the data, the arithmetic mean and standard deviation values of the scores obtained from the scales were found, and Pearson's correlation analysis and simple linear regression analysis tests were used. The study detected negative significant relationships, albeit low, between the DAS sub-dimensions of deprivation, impulsivity, underperformance, low self-perception, and social isolation and all the sub-dimensions of ISS (i.e. acquiring knowledge, controlling knowledge, and self-confidence). There was also a low negative significant relationship between the overall DAS and ISS scores of the high school students. Finally, digital addiction levels were determined to explain 5% of the variance in the high school students' inquiry skills.

As a data collection tool, the “Study and Learning Strategies Scale for High School Students” developed by Kutlu, Yapıcı and Korkmaz (2015), consisting of 46 items and five sub-dimensions, was used. As a result of the study, when the “Study and Learning Strategies” of the students are examined according to school types; It has been determined that there is a significant difference in the sub-dimensions of “Repetition” and “Enjoying Learning”. It has been observed that there is a significant difference between male and female students in “Repetition” and “Self-Confidence” sub-dimensions according to the gender of the students. There is no significant difference between the levels of 9th and 12th grade students studying at Science and Anatolian High Schools according to their grade levels.

The Relationship

The objective of this article was to better understand the relationship between students’ age and socioeconomic level, and its influence on students’ digital uses. We conducted a quantitative study of 401 elementary and high school students in Quebec. Four independent variables were initially selected: two related to age (actual age and education level) and two others related to the socioeconomic environment (school poverty index and parents’ employment status). The dependent variable that represented students’ digital uses was the number of different technologies they used weekly. We conducted correlation tests followed by a linear regression analysis. Socioeconomic level appears to have a stronger influence on students’ digital uses compared to age, and explanations for this are proposed.L'objectif de cet article est de mieux comprendre la relation entre l’âge et le milieu socioéconomique des élèves dans leurs usages numériques. Nous avons mené une étude quantitative auprès de 401 élèves du primaire et du secondaire dans la région de Montréal. Quatre variables indépendantes ont été sélectionnées initialement, dont les deux premières renvoient à l'âge (l'âge et l'ordre d'enseignement) alors que les deux dernières renseignent sur le milieu socioéconomique (l'indice de défavorisation des écoles et la situation d'emploi des parents d'élèves). La variable dépendante permettant de rendre compte des usages numériques des élèves était le nombre de technologies qu'ils utilisent sur une base hebdomadaire. Nous avons procédé à une régression linéaire précédée de tests de corrélation. Il en ressort que le niveau socioéconomique semble influencer davantage les usages numériques des élèves que l'âge pour plusieurs raisons explorées dans cette recherche.
