Investigation of nomophobia and smartphone addiction predictors among adolescents in Turkey: Demographic variables and academic performance
Most individuals spend a great amount of time on their smartphones. The
intense usage of smartphones leads to some physical symptoms, good and
bad feelings, pathological addiction, depression, symptoms such as
fear-anxiety, productivity and low academic achievement. For this
reason, prevention activities must be prioritized when dealing with the
intense and uncontrolled usage of smartphones. The aim of this study is
to determine nomophobia levels and smartphone addiction among 12-18 age
group secondary and high school students and to investigate the
demographic and academic variables predicting these levels. Designed
with a relational model, the population of this research consists of 612
students studying at all levels of secondary school and high school.
Personal information form and two different scales were used in the
research. Descriptive analyses and hierarchical linear multiple
regression analysis were used in the analysis of the data obtained by
means of data collection in the research. As a result of the research,
there is a significant relationship between smartphone addiction and
nomophobia. In this study, Model 4 has been identified to be the most
important predictor of smartphone addiction and nomophobia. In Model 4,
variables related to smartphone usage are included in the analysis.
Recommendations have been made according to the results of the study.
