Abstract

In the lives of young people, particularly the students, the internet has become all-pervasive. Internet development has sparked debates on how the online activities and online behaviour of youths can affect their well-being. While the positive aspects of internet usage have the potential to learn and improve social relationships, overuse of the internet can lead to addiction, as well as online risks such as abuse, cyberbullying, and sexual exploitation. This research aims to examine the impact of e-lifestyle on wellness dimensions and the total well-being of Muslim youth in Malaysia. The data was collected through a survey of 255 Muslim respondents aged between 18 and 24 years and analysed using SmartPLS 3.0. The results indicate that the second-order construct of e-lifestyle has a significant effect on all wellness dimensions, while only social wellness has a significant effect on the total well-being of Muslim youth. Later, the future implications are discussed, and a conclusion is provided.
