Technological progress not only brings with it resources that improve and facilitate the day-to-day life of the people who make up society but also entails health risks, with the emergence of terms, such as nomophobia, which is considered an anxiety disorder produced by the fear that not having a mobile phone generates in a person. This research aims to identify the relationship and influence between levels of nomophobia and the age or educational stage of students. The research method is based on a correlational and predictive design of quantitative methodology. The instrument used is the NMP-Q questionnaire. The study population is students from different educational stages (obligatory secondary education, baccalaureate, vocational training and university). The results show that students over 12 years old present an average level of "nomophobia" (no-mobile-phone phobia), namely, not being able to communicate with the family where the highest levels are presented. We conclude that students over 12 years of age and of any educational stage present an average level of nomophobia, and it cannot be determined that either the educational stage or the age are determining factors in the presentation of this problem. This can occur at any age and at any level of the different educational stages, although there are risk indicators that we should bear in mind to avoid the appearance of nomophobia.
技术进步不仅带来了改善和便利社会成员日常生活的资源，还带来了健康风险，出现了“手机恐惧症”等术语，这被认为是一种由担心手机产生的焦虑症。 这个人。 本研究旨在确定“手机恐惧症”水平与学生年龄或教育阶段之间的关系和影响。 研究方法基于定量方法的相关性和预测性设计。 使用的工具是 NMP-Q 问卷。 研究人群是来自不同教育阶段（义务教育、学士学位、职业培训和大学）的学生。 结果表明，12 岁以上的学生表现出“手机恐惧症”（无手机恐惧症）的平均水平，即无法与家庭进行沟通，而家庭中表现出的最高水平。 我们得出的结论是，12 岁以上的学生处于任何教育阶段都表现出平均水平的“手机恐惧症”，不能确定教育阶段或年龄是出现这一问题的决定因素。 这可能发生在任何年龄和不同教育阶段的任何水平，但我们应该牢记一些风险指标，以避免出现“手机恐惧症”。
