Jan 1, 2026
This cross-sectional study surveyed 2,317 college students to examine associations between smartphone addiction and sleep quality. Smartphone addiction was associated with poorer sleep quality, and mediation analyses indicated that higher perceived stress and lower health-promoting lifestyle scores partially…
Problematic smartphone use and disengagement in first-year college students: A daily diary study of between- and within-person differences.

Jan 1, 2026
This 30-day daily diary study of 104 first-year undergraduates in China examined links between problematic smartphone use (PSU) and disengagement at within- and between-person levels. The analyses reported bidirectional next-day associations, where higher-than-usual PSU predicted higher-than-usual disengagement and…
The impact of smartphone use on working memory in college students: a functional near-infrared spectroscopy study.

Jan 1, 2025
This study compared 42 college students grouped by high versus low screen time during a 2-back working memory task while measuring brain activity with fNIRS. The low screen time group performed better on working memory accuracy/hit rate, while reaction time and false alarms did not differ. Neuroimaging results…
The relationship between mobile phone location sensor data and depressive symptom severity.

Jan 1, 2016
This observational study examined whether passively collected smartphone GPS features relate to depressive symptom severity in 48 college students over 10 weeks. Several mobility features (including location variance, entropy, and circadian movement) were reported to correlate with PHQ-9 scores. Associations were…
