We employed quasi-experimental and pretest – posttest design with control group. The statistical population comprised primary and secondary school students in Malaysia, in which out of 24 students were from primary school and 22 students were from secondary school. Participants were selected purposely by school counselors based on students’ vulnerability of having problematic internet use (PIU). Participants then were randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups. The experimental group has undergone counseling session of group reality therapy, while the control group did not receive any intervention. The research tools included Generalized Problematic Internet Use Scale 2 (GPIUS 2) and Interpersonal Competence Questionnaire (ICQ-15). MIX ANOVA was used to analyze the data.
