Abstract:

 The purpose of this study; to determine the relation between chronotype, depression, stress, anxiety, internet addiction and academic achievement levels of university students with a descriptive and cross-sectional research design. The study was conducted with 645 university students. Data was collected using Information Form, Depression, Anxiety, Stress-21 Scale DASS21, The Short Form of Youngs Internet Addiction Test YIAT-SF and Morning-Evening Questionnaire MEQ. Data were analyzed by means, numbers, percentages, independent t-test and correlation. It was determined that the students depression levels were moderate, their stress levels were mild, and their anxiety levels were mild. It was determined that the students were average internet users according to their total Young Internet Addiction Scale score averages. It was determined that the participants chronotypes could be evaluated as intermediate types. It was determined that female students stress and anxiety scores were statistically significantly higher than male students. p0.05. It was found that a significant positive, weak relationship was found between the YIAT-SF total score and the level of depression, stress, anxiety. In addition, a weak negative relationship was found between the YIAT-SF total score average and the Morning-Evening Questionnaire score. The study shows that chronotypes are closely related to students mental health and susceptibility to internet addiction, and that internet addiction plays an important role in academic success.

 Bu çalışmanın amacı; üniversite öğrencilerinde kronotip, depresyon, stres, anksiyete, internet bağımlılığı ve akademik başarı arasındaki ilişkiyi tanımlayıcı kesitsel araştırma deseni ile değerlendirmektir. Çalışma 645 üniversite öğrencisi ile gerçekleştirildi. Veriler Bilgi Formu, Depresyon, Anksiyete, Stres-21 Ölçeği DASÖ21, Young İnternet Bağımlılığı Ölçeği Kısa Formu YİBÖ ve Sabahçıl-Akşamcıl Anketi SAKCA kullanılarak toplandı. Veriler ortalama, sayı, yüzdelik ve bağımsız gruplarda t testi ve korelasyon ile analiz edildi. Öğrencilerin depresyon düzeylerinin orta, stres düzeylerinin hafif orta ve anksiyete düzeylerinin hafif orta olduğu belirlendi. Öğrencilerin Young İnternet Bağımlılık Ölçeği toplam puan ortalamalarına göre ortalama internet kullanıcısı oldukları belirlendi. Katılımcıların kronotiplerinin ara tip olarak değerlendirilebilecekleri saptandı. Kadın öğrencilerin stres ve anksiyete puanlarının erkek öğrencilere kıyasla istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı düzeyde yüksek olduğu belirlendi p0,05. YİBÖ toplam puan ortalaması ile depresyon, stres, anksiyete düzeyleri arasında pozitif yönde, zayıf ve anlamlı bir ilişki saptandı p0,001. Ayrıca YİBÖ toplam puan ortalaması ile Sabahçıl-Akşamcıl anketi puanı arasında zayıf düzeyde negatif yönde bir ilişki saptandı. Yapılan çalışma kronotiplerin öğrencilerin ruh sağlığı ve internet bağımlılığına yatkınlığı ile yakından ilişkili olduğunu ve internet bağımlılığının akademik başarı üzerinde önemli bir rol oynadığını göstermektedir.
