This research aims to study the existing relationships among the factors of state anxiety, depression, impulsivity, and alcohol consumption regarding problematic mobile phone use, as assessed by the Mobile Phone Problem Use Scale. The study was conducted among 1,126 participants recruited among the general Spanish population, aged 16-65 years, by assessing the predictive value of these variables regarding this problematic use. Initially tobacco use was also considered being subsequently refused because of the low internal consistency of the scale used. In general terms, the results show that this problematic use is mainly related to state anxiety and impulsivity, through the dimensions of Positive and Negative Urgency. Considering its predictive value, multiple regression analysis reveals that state anxiety, positive and negative urgency, and alcohol consumption may predict problematic mobile phone use, ruling out the influence of depression.
本研究旨在通过手机问题使用量表评估，研究状态焦虑、抑郁、冲动性和酒精消费等因素与问题性手机使用之间的现有关系。该研究在1126名年龄在16 - 65岁的西班牙普通人群中进行，通过评估这些变量对这种问题性使用的预测价值。最初也考虑了烟草使用，但由于所使用量表的内部一致性较低，随后被排除。总体而言，结果表明，这种问题性使用主要通过积极紧迫性和消极紧迫性维度与状态焦虑和冲动性相关。考虑到其预测价值，多元回归分析表明，状态焦虑、积极和消极紧迫性以及酒精消费可能预测问题性手机使用，排除了抑郁的影响。
