スマートフォン依存傾向に関連する要因

―日常生活に対する主観的評価と自己意識との関連―

In this study, a questionnaire was administered to approximately 800 high school students to examine the relationship between respondents' self-awareness; their subjective evaluation of aspects of their daily lives, such as learning activities and relationships with school friends; and their dependency on smartphones. Their scores on a tendency toward smartphone dependency scale were set as the dependent variable in an analysis. The results showed an interaction between participants' subjective evaluations of their daily lives and their public self-awareness as well as an interaction between the same subjective evaluations and their private self-awareness. These results suggest that high school students who have high self-awareness but lack a positive subjective evaluation of their daily lives have a stronger tendency toward smartphone dependency.
