Abstract

|
|
Objectives ： This study aimed to investigate the mediating effects of self-control on the relationship between smartphone use time and stress.
Methods ： This study was conducted on 1,669 19 to 39-year-old men and women who participated in online research in 2017. We clarified the relationship among smartphone use time, self-control, and stress and tested the mediation model. Correlation analysis was performed to identify the relationship between the main variables. To test the mediating effect of self-control on the relationship between smartphone use time and stress, a structural equation model was implemented using the AMOS program.
Results ： There were significant correlations between the variables of smartphone use time, self-control, and stress. Self-control had a mediating effect (the indirect path coefficient 0.048, 95% CI: 0.022-0.080) in the relationship between smartphone use time and stress.
Conclusion : This study showed that self-control could mediate smartphone use time and stress. Therefore, not only the convenience of using a smartphone but also the disadvantages (e.g., stress) that a smartphone can cause should be addressed.
