Abstract

This study aims to determine the relationship between gadget addiction and the social interaction patterns of students in vocational high schools. The method used in this study was qualitative with a phenomenological approach. Participants were selected based on tendencies toward addictive behavior in gadget use, based on information from guidance counselors. The results showed that students experienced difficulty managing time, emotional dependence, and a decline in the quality of direct social interactions. Limitations of this study lie in the homogenous background of the participants and the lack of in-depth exploration of students' personal experiences. These findings can be used to design preventative services such as information services, group guidance services, and curative services that include collaboration between school counselors and parents, the implementation of group counseling using the CBT model, as well as family counseling.
