The phenomenon of anxiety stemming from the absence of a smartphone or mobile device, known as nomophobia, has become increasingly prevalent in contemporary society. This condition is particularly pronounced among young adults and is associated with several adverse psychological outcomes, including depression, anxiety, stress, somatic complaints and anxiety- related disorders.
This study aims to examine the prevalence of nomophobia and its psychopathological correlations.
The study sample comprised = 200 college/university students and working adults in the age group of 18-25 years. The Nomophobia Scale, developed by Yildirim and Correia (2015), and the short version of the Personality Assessment Inventory (PAI) by Morey (1991) were employed. The research utilised SPSS-26, a quantitative analysis software, and applied descriptive statistics along with Pearson Product-Moment correlation and simple linear regression.
The results indicated a significant positive correlation between nomophobia and certain subscales of psychological symptoms, such as depression, somatic complaints, anxiety, and anxiety- related disorders. And Nomophobia significantly predicted psychopathologies among young adults.
因缺少智能手机或移动设备而产生焦虑的现象，即无手机恐惧症，在当代社会中日益普遍。这种情况在年轻人中尤为明显，并与多种不良心理后果相关，包括抑郁、焦虑、压力、躯体不适以及与焦虑相关的障碍。
本研究旨在调查无手机恐惧症的患病率及其与精神病理学的相关性。
研究样本包括200名年龄在18至25岁之间的大学生和在职成年人。采用了由耶尔德勒姆和科雷亚（2015年）编制的无手机恐惧症量表，以及莫雷（1991年）编制的《人格评估量表》简版。本研究使用定量分析软件SPSS-26，并应用描述性统计以及皮尔逊积差相关和简单线性回归。
结果表明，无手机恐惧症与某些心理症状分量表之间存在显著正相关，如抑郁、躯体不适、焦虑以及与焦虑相关的障碍。并且无手机恐惧症显著预测了年轻人的精神病理学状况。
