Which option shows high self-control over social media use?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Turning off notifications during study and using it only at fixed time
Self-control involves planning in advance and reducing triggers that interrupt an important task. Turning off notifications removes frequent cues, while using social media only at a fixed time creates a clear boundary. Checking every few minutes and prioritising entertainment increase distraction. Simply ignoring distraction without changing the environment is less reliable than preventing it.
