Binge-Watching And Its Impact On The Academic Performance Of College Students

Abstract

The research was aimed at discovering the impact of Binge-watching on the academic performance of college students hailing from North-East India. The Paper is a Quantitative Research Study done by using both a Printed and an Online Structured Survey Questionnaire. The Snowball Sampling technique was employed in view of the then-rising cases of COVID-19. The data analysis was done using IBM SPSS software. As compared to many prior studies in other parts of the country or the world at large, this study found no major impact, neither positive nor negative on the academic performance of students. The study however did find that Binge-watching was causing sleep deprivation among the students.
