While moderate smartphone use contributes to information gathering and relationship building, excessive smartphone use, also referred to as problematic smartphone use (PSU), has raised concerns because of its addictive nature and associated health consequences. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between treatment readiness and prognosis in individuals with PSU and to assess the predictive ability of smartphone log data in evaluating treatment readiness.
A sample of 47 patients with PSU participated in this study. Treatment readiness was assessed using the Stages of Change, Readiness, and Treatment Eagerness Scale (SOCRATES), and log data were collected using a smartphone log application.
The results showed a significant correlation between baseline SOCRATES scores and the difference in Global Assessment of Functioning scores between baseline and 6 months (Spearman's = 0.640, P-value = .001), suggesting that treatment readiness may explain part of the treatment outcomes (Pearson's = 0.379, P-value = 0.032). In addition, baseline log data, including the log acquisition rate, showed a positive correlation with treatment readiness (Spearman's = 0.328, P-value = 0.045).
These findings provide valuable insights into the relationship between treatment readiness and clinical outcomes in patients with PSU, and suggest the potential of log data as objective indicators of treatment motivation.
适度使用智能手机有助于信息收集和人际关系建立，然而过度使用智能手机，即问题性智能手机使用（PSU），因其成瘾性及相关健康后果引发了人们的关注。本研究旨在调查PSU患者的治疗准备程度与预后之间的关系，并评估智能手机日志数据在评估治疗准备程度方面的预测能力。
47名PSU患者参与了本研究。使用改变阶段、准备程度和治疗渴望量表（SOCRATES）评估治疗准备程度，并使用智能手机日志应用程序收集日志数据。
结果显示，基线SOCRATES评分与基线至6个月间功能总体评估评分的差异之间存在显著相关性（斯皮尔曼相关系数=0.640，P值=0.001），这表明治疗准备程度可能解释部分治疗结果（皮尔逊相关系数=0.379，P值=0.032）。此外，包括日志获取率在内的基线日志数据与治疗准备程度呈正相关（斯皮尔曼相关系数=0.328，P值=0.045）。
这些发现为PSU患者的治疗准备程度与临床结果之间的关系提供了有价值的见解，并表明日志数据作为治疗动机客观指标的潜力。
