With technological progress, the use of the internet and smartphones has become an inseparable part of our lives and their use is increasing. The uncontrolled use of both the internet and smartphones is defined as problematic use. This study examined the effects of problematic internet and smartphone use on dietary behaviors and abnormal body weight status in young adults. Participants were 560 university students. Participants completed measures of demographics, dietary behaviors, internet and smartphone usage habits, Young's Internet Addiction Test and Smartphone Addiction Scale. Negative associations were found between dietary behaviors and problematic internet and smartphone use. Significant inverse associations were also found between these uses and recommended consumption levels of several food groups. For a healthy future generation, it is recommended that policies be developed to prevent or manage these problematic uses, especially in young adults with negative dietary behaviors and abnormal body weight.
随着技术进步，互联网和智能手机的使用已成为我们生活中不可分割的一部分，且其使用量正在增加。对互联网和智能手机的无节制使用被定义为问题性使用。本研究调查了年轻人中互联网和智能手机问题性使用对饮食行为及异常体重状况的影响。参与者为560名大学生。参与者完成了人口统计学、饮食行为、互联网和智能手机使用习惯、杨氏网络成瘾测试及智能手机成瘾量表的测量。研究发现饮食行为与互联网和智能手机问题性使用之间存在负相关。这些使用与几个食物组的推荐摄入量之间也存在显著的负相关。为了下一代的健康，建议制定政策来预防或管理这些问题性使用，尤其是在有不良饮食行为和异常体重的年轻人中。
