this research aimed at analyzing the psychological and ethical impact of modern technologies on youth.
Youth is spending more than 50 hours on their phones every week, which is almost the same as working
full-time. The new modern communication technology is a frontier that is rich with opportunities and
risks, particularly for young people. Through modern communication technology young people are
engaging in a range of activities, including social networking, blogging, vlogging, gaming, instant
messaging, downloading music and other content, uploading and sharing their own creations, and
collaborating with others in various ways. This research paper is qualitative in nature and primary and
secondary data were employed. The primary data techniques consist of questionnaire, interview, focus
group discussion and informal discussion. Secondary data were collected from books, research article,
magazines, news papers and online articles. When I started researching on the use of technology, I
discovered that modern technology has many advantages, but it also has the disadvantages of youth.
Without a doubt, technology is improving our lives better. We create technology as an alternative for
all difficult tasks.But we must not ignore the disadvantages of technology in youth. The research found
that, the many youth are using internet in the wrong approach. The results forecast that many youth are
affected by the usage of modern technology, and the usage of modern technology does not only affect
the psychological and ethical aspects of youth but also it has an influence on the physical aspects too.
In the light of findings recommendations were made to reduce the usage of contemporary
communication technology and increase the efficiency on usage of the modern technology
communication among the youth.
