Abstract	The present study aimed to examine the level of Cybermania among Higher Secondary students and to analyse differences in Cybermania with respect to selected demographic variables such as gender, locality, type of residence, family type, and group of study. Employing the normative survey method, data were collected from a sample of 751 Higher Secondary students using a standardized Cybermania Scale. Descriptive statistics and t-tests were used for data analysis. The findings revealed that students exhibit a moderate level of Cybermania overall. Significant differences were found across all selected demographic variables, with female students, rural students, hostel-stayed students, joint-family students, and science group students showing higher levels of Cybermania. The study highlights the need for targeted educational and counselling interventions to promote healthy digital behaviour among adolescents.
