smartphone overuse among healthcare college students.

Nineteen participants were assigned to experimental group and 21 to control group. An eight-session cognitive behavioral therapy program was implemented for the experimental group. Dependent variables were depression, impulsivity, interpersonal anxiety, and smartphone use.
