Abstract

The study aimed to examine the use of internet among female madrasa students who were enrolled in different madrasas of Bahawalpur. Around 300 pupils from various locations, registered in different madrasas in the district of Bahawalpur were randomly selected for data collection. The information was gathered by researchers personally by adopting/modifying a scale to quantify the study on use of internet among female madrasa students in district Bahawalpur while using internet addiction scale used and developed by Widyanto, L., & McMurran, M. (2004). The percentage means score, and different formulas through SPSS were worked out for the data investigation, which shows the lowest mean score while using the internet as compared to students going out with others. The lowest mean score was found among students who felt a bored and joyless life while disappearing from the internet. The majority of the respondents are disagreeing with the statement of disturbing thoughts of their life blocked with soothing thoughts of the internet. They also disagreed about the statement of neglecting their domestic responsibilities for the reason of spending their excess time online. The study suggests that students must practice a positive use of the internet to develop deep understanding in their studies.
