Abstract: The rapid increase in digital technology usage has led to growing concerns about screen addiction, particularly among adolescents. This study was undertaken to assess the impact of screen addiction on the behavioural and psychosocial well-being of adolescents in selected schools. The present study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Nurse-Led Interventional package on the knowledge regarding the impacts of screen addiction. A quantitative research approach with a quasi-experimental design was used. A total sample of 400 adolescents was selected through multi-stage sampling. The sample was divided into the control and experimental groups. A pre-test was administered before implementing the nurse-led interventional package in both the control and experimental groups. The interventional package was delivered only to the experimental group. After 10 days of pre-test, a post-test was conducted in both the experimental and control groups. Data was collected using a socio-demographic profile, a screen addiction behaviour test, a structured knowledge questionnaire and a Likert attitude scale. The study was conducted at the eight selected schools of four districts of Punjab, namely Amritsar, Bathinda, Shaheed Bhagat Singh Nagar and Shri Fatehgarh Sahib. The sample comprised of adolescents aged between 13-18 years studying in selected schools.
