Nomophobia (no mobile phone phobia) can be defined as a situational phobia described by the fear of not having a smartphone available or being incapable of accessing the Internet. Based on these characteristics, the Nomophobia Questionnaire (NMP-Q) was designed, showing a four-factor structure and good psychometric characteristics. The current study intended to adapt the NMP-Q to European Portuguese (NMP-Q-PT) and test its factor structure and psychometric properties. Five hundred participants from the general population (convenience sampling) filled in the NMP-Q-PT, the Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version (SAS-SV) and the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scales (DASS-21). Three models were tested through confirmatory factor analysis. One higher order factor (global nomophobia) with four lower order factors revealed a good fit to the data. The NMP-Q-PT presented excellent consistency, construct and discriminant validity, as well as good concurrent and divergent validities. Overall, the NMP-Q-PT showed to be a reliable and valid instrument for measuring nomophobia.
无手机恐惧症（即对没有智能手机或无法上网感到恐惧的情境性恐惧症）可定义为一种情境性恐惧症。基于这些特征，设计了无手机恐惧症问卷（NMP-Q），该问卷呈现出四因素结构且具有良好的心理测量学特征。本研究旨在将NMP-Q改编为欧洲葡萄牙语版（NMP-Q-PT），并测试其因素结构和心理测量特性。来自普通人群的500名参与者（便利抽样）填写了NMP-Q-PT、智能手机成瘾量表简版（SAS-SV）以及抑郁、焦虑和压力量表（DASS-21）。通过验证性因素分析测试了三个模型。一个具有四个低阶因素的高阶因素（总体无手机恐惧症）显示出与数据的良好拟合。NMP-Q-PT具有出色的一致性、结构效度和区分效度，以及良好的同时效度和区分效度。总体而言，NMP-Q-PT是测量无手机恐惧症的可靠且有效的工具。
