Abstract

This study explores the impact of TikTok on the moral conduct of 12th-grade social science students at MAN Purwakarta. Using a quantitative approach, a survey was conducted among 118 students, selected through stratified random sampling, to assess the relationship between social media usage and student behavior. Data collection involved structured questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, observations, and document reviews, ensuring high ecological validity. Statistical analysis, including linear regression and hypothesis testing, revealed that TikTok use does not significantly influence student morals, accounting for only 46% of the behavioral variance. The remaining 54% is attributed to individual characteristics, family environment, and peer interactions. These findings highlight the need for a more holistic approach to moral education, emphasizing family, school, and community roles alongside responsible social media use. Limitations of this study include its cross-sectional nature and focus on a single social media platform. Future research should consider longitudinal studies and a broader scope of media platforms to understand better the complex interplay between social media and moral development.
