Martina Lešnjak Opaka[1], Simona Tancig[2] Abstract While research increasingly seeks to establish links between digital technology use and educational outcomes, it rarely focuses on self-regulated learning and early adolescents. The data for the current study were collected through a survey, and the results show that Internet use for the purposes of having fun is negatively related to self-regulated learning among early adolescents, while the relation with Internet use for school purposes tends to be positive. Moreover, Internet-related multitasking during schoolwork was found to be negatively associated with self-regulated learning. Keywords: self-regulated learning, Internet use, early adolescents, multitasking [1] Martina Lešnjak Opaka, M.Sc., is a special education teacher at the OŠ Jožeta Moškriča primary school in Ljubljana and a doctoral student at the Faculty of Education of University of Ljubljana ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
