UNASSIGNED: This study aimed to evaluate the detailed clinical manifestations of smartphone addiction as a delineated clinical syndrome.
UNASSIGNED: A cross-sectional study design was employed to assess smartphone addiction prevalence and its health impacts among Syrian undergraduates using the Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version (SAS-SV 2013), the Kessler psychological distress scale (K-6), and a comprehensive assessment of the clinical manifestations frequently linked to smartphone addiction in the literature. Different statistical modeling techniques were applied; a P value of < .05 was considered statistically significant.
UNASSIGNED: Of 1532 invited undergraduates, 1401 (91.45%) completed the assessment adequately. Most participants were females (59.7%) and below 23 years of age (73.2%). The prevalence of smartphone addiction was 67.80%; statistically significant smartphone addiction associations were revealed with psychological distress (P < .0001) with odds ratios of 3.308. Most screened physical manifestations also showed a significant association with smartphone addiction.
UNASSIGNED: A high prevalence of smartphone addiction was observed with a broad spectrum of associated mental and physical manifestations. As smart device addiction becomes a global health concern, combining the clinical findings reported in the related literature into one clinical identity is necessary to develop a holistic management approach for the delineated clinical syndrome.
■本研究旨在评估智能手机成瘾的详细临床表现,作为一种划定的临床综合征。
■采用横断面研究设计,使用智能手机成瘾量表(SAS-SV2013)评估叙利亚大学生的智能手机成瘾患病率及其对健康的影响。凯斯勒心理困扰量表(K-6),以及对文献中经常与智能手机成瘾相关的临床表现的综合评估。应用不同的统计建模技术;P值<0.05被认为具有统计学意义。
■在1532名受邀本科生中,1401(91.45%)充分完成评估。大多数参与者是女性(59.7%)和23岁以下(73.2%)。智能手机成瘾的患病率为67.80%;具有统计学意义的智能手机成瘾关联与心理困扰(P<.0001),比值比为3.308。大多数筛查的身体表现也显示出与智能手机成瘾的显着关联。
■观察到智能手机成瘾的患病率很高,伴随着广泛的相关精神和身体表现。随着智能设备成瘾成为全球健康问题,将相关文献中报道的临床发现合并为一个临床身份是开发针对所描绘的临床综合征的整体管理方法所必需的.
