As a device with multiple functions, a smartphone become more and more relevant in everyday life. However, this goes along with an increase in reports about smartphone addiction and its unwanted consequences. One of the most important variables in the etiopathogenesis of addictive smartphone use is personality. This study aimed to investigate predictors of problematic smartphone use. Clinically relevant differences in personality, psychopathology, and social support between students with and without problematic smartphone use were investigated. All currently enrolled students at the Sigmund Freud University in Vienna ( = 1,836) were surveyed. Response rate was 27.07% ( = 497, age: M = 19.6, SD = 8.04). The Smartphone Addiction Scale (SPAS), the 10-Item Big Five Inventory (BFI-10), the Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI-18), and a questionnaire on social support (F-SozU-K-14) were used. A total of 75 students (15.1% of the total sample) showed problematic smartphone use. In terms of personality, respondents with problematic smartphone use showed significantly higher values for extraversion and neuroticism compared than non-addicted users. Students with problematic smartphone use showed significantly higher levels in terms of depression and anxiety. Contrary to expectations, individuals with problematic smartphone use showed significantly higher values for perceived social support than with individuals without problematic smartphone use. Therapy for problematic smartphone use should be carried out taking into account discussed, important etiological factors, such as personality.
作为一种具备多种功能的设备，智能手机在日常生活中变得越来越重要。然而，与此同时，关于智能手机成瘾及其不良后果的报道也日益增多。成瘾性智能手机使用的病因学中最重要的变量之一是人格。本研究旨在调查问题性智能手机使用的预测因素。对有和没有问题性智能手机使用的学生在人格、精神病理学和社会支持方面的临床相关差异进行了调查。对维也纳西格蒙德·弗洛伊德大学所有目前在册的学生（=1836人）进行了调查。回复率为27.07%（=497人，年龄：M=19.6，SD=8.04）。使用了智能手机成瘾量表（SPAS）、大五人格量表简版（BFI-10）、简明症状量表（BSI-18）以及一份关于社会支持的问卷（F-SozU-K-14）。共有75名学生（占总样本的15.1%）表现出问题性智能手机使用。在人格方面，有问题性智能手机使用的受访者在外向性和神经质方面的得分显著高于未成瘾用户。有问题性智能手机使用的学生在抑郁和焦虑方面的水平显著更高。与预期相反，有问题性智能手机使用的个体在感知到的社会支持方面的得分显著高于没有问题性智能手机使用的个体。针对问题性智能手机使用的治疗应考虑到所讨论的重要病因因素，如人格。
