Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh penggunaan media sosial dan gaya pengasuhan orang tua terhadap motivasi belajar dan prestasi belajar remaja. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas XI di empat sekolah; masing-masing dua sekolah di Kabupaten Bogor (mewakili wilayah perdesaan) dan Kota Bogor (mewakili wilayah perkotaan). Contoh diambil menggunakan metode proportional random sampling sebanyak 120 siswa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan penggunaan media sosial remaja di kota lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan remaja di kabupaten. Sebagian besar orangtua remaja di kedua wilayah menerapkan gaya pengasuhan otoritatif. Motivasi instrinsik dipengaruhi oleh gaya pengasuhan otoritatif dan permisif, serta durasi penggunaan media sosial. Motivasi ekstrinsik dipengaruhi oleh gaya pengasuhan otoritatif dan otoritarian, serta durasi penggunaan media sosial. Remaja di perkotaan mencapai prestasi akademik yang lebih baik dibandingkan remaja di perdesaan, begitu pula dengan remaja perempuan dibandingkan remaja laki-laki. Sementara itu, gaya pengasuhan otoritarian terbukti menurunkan prestasi akademik remaja.
