The increasing use of social media has been identified as one of the major contributing factors. Method: This study applied a descriptive quantitative design. Data were collected from 275 Indonesian adolescents aged 17–22 years (182 females and 93 males). Bedtime procrastination was measured with the Bedtime Procrastination Scale (BPS), while social media use was assessed using the Social Media Addiction Scale (SMAS). Data analysis employed Pearson’s product-moment correlation.Results: The findings indicated a positive and statistically significant relationship between social media use and bedtime procrastination (r = 0.27, p < 0.01). No meaningful gender differences were observed in either social media intensity or procrastination behavior.Conclusion: The study shows that higher social media use is associated with increased bedtime procrastination among adolescents. These results highlight the need for effective regulation of media use to maintain healthy sleep patterns
