This study investigated the relationship between Facebook usage and student academic performance in terms of GPA. A survey was administered to over 100 female students at King Saud University. The results found that 55% of students felt Facebook and social media negatively impacted their academic performance, providing partial support for the hypothesis. However, the study was limited by only examining female students, measuring GPA as the sole indicator of performance, and not accurately quantifying time spent on activities. Future work should improve measuring of variables like study and leisure time to better understand their interaction.
