The development of digital technology has brought about significant changes in adolescent social interaction patterns. Easy internet access, smartphone use, and the rise of social media provide ample space for adolescents to communicate, share information, and build relationships without the constraints of time and space. Previously limited to face-to-face interactions have now shifted to a more free and open digital realm. However, despite these conveniences, technological developments also have the potential to influence adolescent behavior, particularly in social interactions, which tend to lead to promiscuity if not accompanied by adequate control and understanding. This study aims to analyze the dynamics of adolescent promiscuity in the era of digital technology development and identify influencing factors. The study used a qualitative approach with descriptive methods through literature review, namely by reviewing various books, scientific journals, and relevant sources related to digital technology and adolescent behavior. The results indicate that high intensity of social media use, lack of parental supervision, weak digital literacy, and environmental influences are contributing factors to changes in adolescent social interactions. Therefore, synergy between families, schools, and communities is needed to provide education, supervision, and reinforcement of moral values and character education so that adolescents can use technology wisely and responsibly.
