Abstract

The goal of this study was to see how using gadgets affected the emotional development of elementary school children in the Masmambang, Talo, and Seluma districts. This is a quantitative study that employs inferential statistical techniques, which are statistics used to analyze sample data and produce results that apply to the entire population. The population in this study consisted of 30 high school elementary school children, and the sample consisted of 20 high school children from Masmambang village, Talo sub-district, Seluma district, chosen at random. Based on the t_test, the results of this study were t_count = 3.369 and t_table at level (0.05) with dk = 18 of 2.101. This indicates that t_count is greater than t_table, with 3.369 > 2.101. The t statistic test criteria indicate that the hypothesis (Ha) in this study is accepted, namely that there is a significant influence between the variables of gadget use on the emotional development of elementary school children in the Masmambang sub-district, Talo sub-district, and Seluma district, whereas the hypothesis (Ho) is rejected.
