Abstract

This study aimed to determine the influence of social media scrolling habits on the learning concentration of students of Community Education at the Faculty of Education, Universitas Negeri Medan. This study employed a quantitative associative approach. The population of this study consisted of 331 students. The sampling technique used was proportionate stratified random sampling, in which the population was divided into several strata or groups based on certain characteristics. The sample consisted of 77 students from the Community Education Department, with an error tolerance of 10%. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using simple linear regression analysis. The results of the data analysis revealed that social media scrolling habits had a significant influence on students' learning concentration, with a t-value of 3.898 greater than the t-table value of 1.665, and an F-value of 15.195 with a significance level of 0.000 < 0.05. Since the t-value was greater than the t-table value, it could be concluded that H₀ was rejected and Hₐ was accepted. Furthermore, the coefficient of determination (R²) was 0.168, indicating that 16.8% of the variation in learning concentration could be explained by social media scrolling habits, while the remaining 83.2% was influenced by factors outside the scope of this study.
