description The objective of the research was to determine the relationship between addiction to social networks and academic stress in students of the Tsa`chila Technological Institute, in Santo Domingo - Ecuador, year 2020. Study with a quantitative approach, the level or scope of the study is of type descriptive - correlational with non-experimental cross-sectional design. The sample consisted of 500 students of both sexes with an age range between 17 and 44 years of the current careers of a public institute. The instruments used were the Social Media Addiction questionnaire (ARS) with a Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient of 0.950 and the SISCO SV-21 inventory of academic stress with a Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient of 0.929. The results show that there is a significant low relationship between addiction to social networks with respect to the symptoms or reaction dimensions (tau-b = .135; p <.01) and coping strategies (tau-b = -.184; p <. 01) of academic stress in higher level students; with medium levels of addiction and moderate academic stress. It was concluded that a greater use of social networks on the Internet increased academic stress in higher-level students.

La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo determinar la relación entre la adicción a redes sociales y estrés académico en los estudiantes del Instituto Tecnológico Tsa`chila, en Santo Domingo, Ecuador, año 2020. El estudio es de enfoque cuantitativo, el nivel o alcance del estudio es de tipo descriptivo-correlacional, con diseño no experimental y de corte transversal. La muestra estuvo conformada por 500 estudiantes de ambos sexos con rango de edad entre 17 a 44 años de las carreras vigentes de un instituto público. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron el Cuestionario de Adicción a Redes Sociales (ARS) con un coeficiente de confiabilidad alfa de Cronbach del 0,950 y el inventario SISCO SV-21 del estrés académico con un coeficiente de fiabilidad alfa de Cronbach del 0,929. Los resultados demostraron que existe relación baja significativa entre adicción a redes sociales con respecto a las dimensiones síntomas o reacción (tau-b = .135; p<.01) y estrategias de afrontamiento (tau-b = -.184; p<.01) del estrés académico en los estudiantes de nivel superior; con niveles de adicción medio y estrés académico moderado. Se concluyó que, a mayor uso de las redes sociales en internet, mayor incremento del estrés académico en estudiantes de nivel superior.
