In addition, a survey conducted in 2015 showed that 46 percent of Americans reported that they

could not live without their smartphone (Smith, 2015). Similar numbers can be observed in other parts

of the (Western) world (OECD, 2017). Therefore, it should come as no surprise that in recent years

professional life. In particular, it has been related to tertiary students’ academic performance.

The significant growth of smart phone ownership among student nowadays new connection and

after students’ attitudes towards the technology item. Lately, students become strongly attached to

researchers which reveals that four in five students have significant mental and physical distress, panic,

confusion, and extreme isolation when forced to unflag from technology for an entire day. The globe
