Abstract
Individuals residing in boarding houses frequently experience feelings of loneliness due to their distance from family members. This sentiment often prompts them to seek methods of mitigating these feelings, engaging in a variety of activities that are both social and personal in nature. One such method that has gained significant popularity is the utilization of the internet, which includes engaging in cybersex activities.The primary objective of this study is to ascertain the existence of a correlation between loneliness and cybersex behavior. The studys sample population consists of 63 students residing in boarding houses. The scale employed in this study was the Cybersex Behavior Scale (ISST), and the Loneliness Behavior Scale was utilized. The sampling technique employed was purposive sampling. The findings of the study indicated a correlation coefficient of r = 0.024 with a significance level of 0.855 (p > 0.05). This indicates that the hypothesis, which postulated the existence of a relationship between loneliness and cybersex behavior among students residing in boarding houses, was rejected.
