recommendation1. The students should realize the most important things in their lives and should prioritize things not based on their intuition instead it should be based on the order of importance because the researchers found out that most of the respondents are prioritizing computer games over other matters this isn’t that bad but they must learn how to value their time such as time with their family, friend, and love ones.2. The students who felt socially inactive should learn how to extend their feelings because these individuals have separated themselves from the social world by the means of playing computer games they should learn how to get out of the box and express their selves more to improve their social being.

3. Those respondents who are playing for more than 4 hours a day should learn to decrease their playing time. In doing this they will minimize their expenses and will enable themselves to do other activities that can improve their social life.4. To have computer gaming as a hobby isn’t that bad as long as it doesn’t affect your social interaction with others. A player who founds himself addicted to the game must engage in other recreational activities to suppress their addiction. 5. The time that they give in playing computer game should be divided amongst other matters like going to the church, and attending organizational meeting
