Abstract

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the use of the internet has increased dramatically due to the widespread implementation of lockdowns, as well as the shift to remote work and online learning. While the internet can be a valuable tool for staying connected and accessing information during this time, it is important to recognize the potential for problematic internet use and the distorted beliefs in holding to those problematic behaviors. The present study examines the relationship between problematic Internet use (PIU) and cognitive distortions among University students.
