Abstract
The purpose of this study was to understand the influence of social network site (SNS) addiction on the ability of nursing students to adjust to university life and to generate the basic data to develop programs that could improve this ability. The data was collected from questionnaires that were filled out by 255 nursing students in two universities located in Jeollanam-do and Gyeonggi-do from May 16, 2020 to May 20, 2020. The data was analyzed using the SPSS 23.0 program (frequency, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, multiple regression). The mean scores of SNS addiction and adjustment to university life were 2.16±0.54 (range:1-5) and 3.13±0.39 (range:1-5) respectively. SNS addiction accounts for 27% of the variance in adjustment to university life. The study concluded that SNS addiction negatively affects adjustment to university life among nursing students. To ensure better adjustment a program should be developed to treat SNS addiction early. Also, a study will have to be conducted to determine the time when tendency toward SNS addiction becomes apparent, to initiate treatment.
