In this study we examined the phenomena of smartphone addiction, online harassment, and school bullying/victimization to predict the prospective influence these could have on the onset and persistence of sleep problems and depression among children.
Responses from 2155 fifth-grade children recruited from 30 primary schools in Taipei were assessed, and a follow-up was performed in the 6th grade. Self-administered questionnaires were collected for each year.
Children who reported smartphone addictions, online harassment, and school bullying/victimization coupled with an increase in those factors were more likely to experience the onset and persistence of sleep problems. In addition, children who reported smartphone addiction, online harassment, school bullying/victimization, and poor sleep quality were more likely to experience the onset and persistence of depression.
School nurses or pediatric nurses should be able to assess children's Internet use and risks to understand potential influences on sleep quality and mental status and provide recommendations for children, parents and schools.
本研究旨在探讨智能手机成瘾、网络欺凌以及校园欺凌/受凌现象对儿童睡眠问题和抑郁发生与持续的前瞻性影响。
从台北 30 所小学招募的 2155 名五年级儿童参与了该研究，在六年级时进行了随访。每年都收集了自我报告的问卷。
报告智能手机成瘾、网络欺凌和校园欺凌/受凌，且这些因素增加的儿童更有可能出现睡眠问题的发生和持续。此外，报告智能手机成瘾、网络欺凌、校园欺凌/受凌和睡眠质量差的儿童更有可能出现抑郁的发生和持续。
学校护士或儿科护士应该能够评估儿童的互联网使用情况和风险，以了解其对睡眠质量和精神状态的潜在影响，并为儿童、家长和学校提供建议。
