The aim of this study is to examine the levels of sociotelism among students in terms of various variables. The sample of the research consists of a group of 271 individuals from the Near East University Faculty of Education at Atatürk University, selected through a simple random sampling method during the 2023–2024 academic year. The “descriptive” method was used in the study. As data collection tools, a scale group consisting of “Sociotelism, Phone Addiction, Internet Addiction, Social Media Addiction, Game Addiction, and SMS Addiction” was used. In analyzing the results of the research, T-tests, ANOVA, and Tukey tests were applied to determine differences between groups. Pearson’s test was used for correlations between scales.
