The Impact of Social Isolation and
Technology Dependence to Senior
High Students in College of Subic
Montessori

3.
� Introduction
� Research has demonstrated that social isolation leads to
loneliness, anxiety, depression, and subsequently to negative
health consequences. Social isolation can be defined as a lack of
quantity and quality of social contacts. There are many risk
factors associated with loneliness and isolation; examples
include poor health, reduced social networks, poverty and low
self-esteem. These factors have a reciprocal relationship since
the impact of all factors is bilateral. Hence, there is increasing
policy recognition that the alleviation of social isolation and
loneliness among teenager people should be prioritized. And
technology can be a tool to manage and adapt to changing
circumstances and loss of capabilities. It has great potential to
support teenagers in living and adulthood stage by addressing
their mental, physical, and social challenges. By being dependent
to social, stimulating, meaningful, and enjoyable activities,
various technologies can enhance levels of connectedness and
overall quality of life.
