ABSTRACT:
Internet overuse poses a serious risk to students and teenagers in the form of decreased face-to-face interaction, reduced outdoor creativity, cyberbullying, wastage of time, abandonment of family, invasion of privacy, lack of sleep, reduced physical activity, low morale, psychological blocks, elimination of book reading, etc., all of which have an adverse effect on relationships, increased anxiety, and excessive online spending1. In the current study, information was gathered on what degree college students in Udaipur knew about interventional strategies on internet overuse and when the usage needed to be reduced through the reading of an informational booklet. A simple non-probability random selection method was used to choose a sample of 169 students. Once the information booklet was distributed, the mean knowledge score was 17.7. The study's conclusions showed that there was no statistically significant correlation between post-test knowledge scores and particular baseline factors. The study's conclusions confirm the necessity of educating students about information booklet for internet overuse. Students' knowledge was increased because of the distribution of the instructional pamphlet. The study strongly advises implementing an organised teaching programme in institutions and schools to boost students' mental well-being, lower their risk of internet addiction, and encourage a healthy lifestyle.
