Summary

This trial tests a structured cognitive behavioral psychoeducation program designed to help nursing students reduce internet addiction and academic procrastination. Participants attend sessions that teach them to recognize unhelpful thoughts and emotions, manage automatic thinking patterns, and build coping skills. The study measures changes in internet addiction severity and procrastination tendencies using standard questionnaires.

What this could lead to
