The practice of phubbing has become an emerging phenomenon of worldwide interest to researchers. The cause is due to the fact that smartphones are ubiquitous and are often used in co-present interactions. This behavior is generally considered inappropriate and is called "phubbing". Phubbing, as described by Chotpitayasunondh and Douglas (2018), is the act of snubbing someone in a social setting by looking at one's phone instead of paying attention to the other person. The aim of this article is to provide an overview of research studies on phubbing through a review of the current literature. To do this, a search was carried out in an international database, finding 84 relevant articles in English that appeared in peer-reviewed journals published between 2012, the year in which the term 'phubbing' appears, and January 2020. The review covers the main fields of research studies on phubbing behaviors. Likewise, the results of the study show the distribution of published articles on phubbing by year that detail the type of study and the methodological approach and, finally, the research journals that have published articles on phubbing. The results of this review are expected to stimulate and guide future research in this field.
低头族行为已成为一种引起全球研究人员关注的新兴现象。原因在于智能手机无处不在，且常被用于共同在场的互动中。这种行为通常被认为是不恰当的，被称为“低头族行为”。如Chotpitayasunondh和Douglas（2018年）所描述的，低头族行为是指在社交场合中通过看手机而不是关注他人来冷落某人的行为。本文的目的是通过回顾当前文献，对低头族行为的研究进行概述。为此，在一个国际数据库中进行了搜索，找到了84篇相关英文文章，这些文章发表在2012年（“低头族行为”一词出现的年份）至2020年1月期间出版的同行评审期刊上。该综述涵盖了低头族行为研究的主要领域。同样，研究结果显示了按年份划分的关于低头族行为的已发表文章的分布情况，详细说明了研究类型和方法，最后还列出了发表过关于低头族行为文章的研究期刊。预计本次综述的结果将激发和指导该领域未来的研究。
