Four hundred University Undergraduates were selected through convenient sampling techniques which were used in sampling participants from their various departments within the school. Pearson Product Moment Correlation and Multiple Regression analysis were used to analyze the data collected. Results revealed that there is a significant relationship between self-concept and internet addiction (r = 0.097 p <0.05), there is no significant relationship between gender and internet addiction (r = 0.041 p <0.05), there is a joint relative relationship between self-concept, gender and internet addiction (F2, = 1.92, p <0.05) predict internet addiction (t = 0.639 p < 0.05) and self-concept statistically predict internet addiction (t =1.656 p<0.05).

Abstract

Poor performance in numeracy at the primary level of education may result from inadequate instructional materials, methods, techniques, or strategies used in teaching it. This study investigated the effects of constructive and social play on pupils' academic performance in numeracy in Niger State. The study examined the interaction effects of constructive, social play, gender, and school type on pupils' academic performance in numeracy in Niger State. The study adopted the social-cultural theory of Lev Vygotsky. The research design used was a pretest-posttest control group non-equivalent quasi-experimental design. A stratified random sampling technique was adopted to select six schools for the study. The instrument used was Numeracy Performance Test (NPT). The Pearson Moment Correlation Coefficient was used to ascertain the reliability coefficient of 0.76 coefficients that were obtained. Frequency counts, percentage, mean, and ANCOVA were used to analyze the data collected. The results revealed that social and constructive play substantially impacted pupils' numeracy performance in Niger State. There was no gender-related difference in student performance in maths and no statistically significant interaction between therapy and gender on pupils' performance in numeracy. In Niger State, there was no discernible correlation between the type of school and pupils' performance in numeracy. Gender and school type did not significantly affect pupils' academic performance in numeracy, suggesting that social play and constructive play increased higher performance in math than the traditional style of instruction.
