ABSTRACT
The study examined smartphone usage and social interaction among students of the faculty of social sciences, Delta State University. Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) served as the theoretical framework of the study. Four research questions were raised to guide the study. Questionnaire was used to illicit responses from one hundred and eighty six respondents on how they use their smartphone for social interaction and how they can balance their social life and academics. Findings show that smartphone is commonly used in social interaction. It also shows that majority of the students spend more time interacting with others than focusing on their academics. Based on these findings, it is recommended that the students set their priorities right by giving ample time for their academics, ask relevant questions which will improve their level of interaction with others, put their smartphones in flight mode or silence to avoid distractions in the classroom.
