| Introduction Students who have to cope with various exams and academic concerns in order to proceed to higher education may encounter many problems such as academic, economic, social, developmental, psychological, family problems and future anxiety throughout their higher education life. Objective This study examined the mediating effect of online gambling addiction in the effect of future anxiety on academic underachievement, based on four hypotheses. Methodology This study employed a relational screening model, and the sample for this study comprised 1,414 university students. “Future Anxiety Scale in University Students”, “Online Gambling Addiction Scale” and “Perceived Academic Underachievement Scale” were used as data collection tools. Results The results of the analyses performed to determine the relationship between the variables revealed that there was a moderate, positive, significant difference between future anxiety and perceived academic underachievement and a weak, positive, significant difference between online gambling addiction, while there was a weak, positive, significant relationship between perceived academic underachievement and online gambling addiction. Discussions The study also concluded that online gambling addiction has a positive and significant effect on academic underachievement. It was concluded that online gambling addiction plays a partial mediator role in the effect of future anxiety on academic underachievement. ConclusionAll four hypotheses (H1, H2, H3, and H4) were supported. Based on the results of this study, recommendations were offered. |
