Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of digital distraction on student performance across courses, and to assess the moderation effect of the average student age, using Hierarchical Linear Modeling (HLM). Multilevel modeling analyses, conducted with 11,237 students across 95 courses revealed that digital distractions negatively affected student performance. However, there was no moderating effect of student average age within each course on the relationship between digital distraction and performance across courses.
