      <abstract xml:lang="en">
        <p>This study explores how social media affects the academic behavior of 11–12-year-old students. The findings show that students use their phones in a mostly balanced way for communication, entertainment, and sometimes learning. However, using phones during homework can reduce concentration, even if students do not always notice it. Overall, social media is neither fully harmful nor fully beneficial; its impact depends on how consciously students use it.</p>

        <p>В данном исследовании рассматривается влияние социальных сетей на учебное поведение учащихся 11–12 лет. Результаты показывают, что учащиеся в основном используют телефоны сбалансированно: для общения, развлечения и иногда для обучения. Однако использование телефона во время выполнения домашнего задания может снижать концентрацию, даже если учащиеся не всегда это осознают. В целом социальные сети не являются полностью вредными или полностью полезными; их влияние зависит от того насколько осознанно учащиеся ими пользуются.</p>

        <p>Ushbu tadqiqot ijtimoiy tarmoqlarning 11–12 yoshli o‘quvchilarning o‘quv faoliyatiga qanday ta‘sir ko‘rsatishini o‘rganadi. Natijalar shuni ko‘rsatadiki, o‘quvchilar telefonlardan asosan muvozanatli tarzda — muloqot, ko‘ngilochar faoliyat va ba‘zan ta‘limiy maqsadlarda foydalanadilar. Biroq uy vazifalarini bajarish jarayonida telefondan foydalanish diqqatning pasayishiga olib kelishi mumkin, hatto o‘quvchilar buni har doim ham anglab yetmasalar ham. Umuman olganda, ijtimoiy tarmoqlar na to‘liq zararli, na to‘liq foydali hisoblanadi; ularning ta‘siri o‘quvchilarning ulardan qay darajada ongli foydalanishiga bog‘liq.</p>
