| Sumario: | 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. |
