The issue of smartphone addiction among high school English learners is becoming more and more significant in this era of information technology, and it is directly associated with their anxiety.
To examine the correlation between high school English learners' anxiety level and the severity of smartphone addiction, the anxiety and smartphone addiction levels of high school English learners were explored. SPSS 26 and MPLUS 8.3 were utilized for data analysis. The sample selected by stratified random sampling comprised 248 high school English learners from a high school in Shanxi Province, and a diary survey was conducted for seven consecutive days, obtaining a total of 1,610 valid data points.
The findings of the multilevel regression model indicated a substantial correlation between anxiety level and the severity of smartphone addiction among high school English learners. Anxiety level was a substantial favorable indicator of the severity of smartphone addiction; a notable disparity existed in the smartphone addiction levels of males and females; however, no significant difference was observed between the genders regarding the predicted influence of anxiety level on the severity of smartphone addiction.
This study examined the effect of anxiety levels on the severity of smartphone addiction and analyzed whether there were gender differences. Based on the results, this study proposes a study on anxiety and smartphone addiction interventions for high school English learners in basic education. The proposal offers evidence from both empirical and theory-based investigations to substantiate the healthy development of high school English learners.
在这个信息技术时代，高中英语学习者的智能手机成瘾问题变得越来越显著，并且它与他们的焦虑直接相关。
为了研究高中英语学习者的焦虑水平与智能手机成瘾严重程度之间的相关性，对高中英语学习者的焦虑和智能手机成瘾水平进行了探究。使用SPSS 26和MPLUS 8.3进行数据分析。通过分层随机抽样选取的样本包括来自山西省一所高中的248名高中英语学习者，并连续七天进行日记调查，共获得1610个有效数据点。
多层次回归模型的结果表明，高中英语学习者的焦虑水平与智能手机成瘾严重程度之间存在显著相关性。焦虑水平是智能手机成瘾严重程度的一个重要正向指标；男性和女性的智能手机成瘾水平存在显著差异；然而，在焦虑水平对智能手机成瘾严重程度的预测影响方面，性别之间没有观察到显著差异。
本研究考察了焦虑水平对智能手机成瘾严重程度的影响，并分析了是否存在性别差异。基于研究结果，本研究提出了一项针对基础教育阶段高中英语学习者的焦虑与智能手机成瘾干预研究。该提议提供了基于实证和理论研究的证据，以证实高中英语学习者的健康发展。
