Resumen

Mientras el mundo se tambalea bajo los efectos de la pandemia COVID-19, la mayoría de las personas se han enfrentado al cambio hacia modos de comunicación en línea en esferas como la educación, el trabajo desde casa e incluso el entretenimiento. Los estudiantes recurrieron a plataformas over-the-top (OTT) para relajarse y aliviar el estrés. El presente estudio intenta medir el uso de plataformas OTT y su efecto en la vida académica de los estudiantes en relación con el rendimiento académico, la concentración y la productividad, los problemas de salud, la gestión del tiempo y su perfil sociodemográfico. El estudio empleó diseños de investigación descriptivos explicativos y utilizó instrumentos que miden el uso de OTT y otras variables a 800 estudiantes de toda la India. El estudio obtuvo 535 respuestas exitosas de los estudiantes que cursaban desde el 11º grado hasta el posgrado. El análisis de datos incluyó estadística descriptiva, prueba t paramétrica, ANOVA y MANOVA. El estudio reveló que los estudiantes utilizaban ampliamente las plataformas OTT para entretenerse. Los datos descriptivos dieron cuenta detallada de su vida académica durante la crisis de la COVID-19. El uso de OTT afectó a su rendimiento académico, concentración y productividad, salud y gestión del tiempo. El estudio recomienda a futuros investigadores encontrar los efectos positivos y negativos del uso de OTT en los jóvenes en el escenario pospandémico.
