4-6 Yaş Çocukların Dijital Oyun Bağımlılıklarında Kardeş Etkisi: Nomofobi, Akıllı Telefon Kullanma, Dijital Oyun Oynama

Abstract

Bu araştırmada 4-6 yaş çocukların dijital oyun bağımlılıklarında büyük kardeşlerin nomofobi düzeylerinin etkisi ve büyük kardeşlerin akıllı telefon kullanma ve dijital oyun oynama sürelerinin çocukların dijital oyun bağımlılık düzeylerinde anlamlı farklılık yaratıp yaratmadığı incelenmiştir. Araştırmaya Erzincan Binali Yıldırım Üniversitesi Sağlık Hizmetleri ve Refahiye Sağlık Hizmetleri Meslek Yüksekokulları’nda öğrenim gören, 4-6 yaş grubunda kardeşi olan 157 ön lisans öğrencisi ve anneleri dahil edilmiştir. Araştırmada ergenlere Nomofobi Ölçeği (NMP-Q), annelere ise 4-6 yaş çocukları için Dijital Oyun Bağımlılığı Ölçeği (DOBE) uygulanmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda ergenlerin nomofobi düzeyleri ile 4-6 yaş çocukların dijital oyun bağımlılıkları arasında pozitif yönde zayıf ilişkiler tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca ergenlerin akıllı telefon kullanma ve dijital oyun oynama sürelerinin 4-6 yaş çocukların dijital oyun bağımlılıkları üzerinde anlamlı farklılık oluşturduğu saptanmıştır. Sonuçlar doğrultusunda 4-6 yaş çocukların dijital oyun bağımlılığının kardeşler bağlamında ve farklı boyutlarıyla incelenmesi önerilebilir.

Sibling Effect on Digital Game Addiction of 4-6 Years Old Children: Nomophobia, Using Smartphone, Digital Game-Play

Abstract

In this study, it was aimed the effect of nomophobia levels of older siblings on digital game addiction of 4-6 years old children and whether the duration of older siblings using smart phones and playing digital games made a significant difference in children's digital game addiction levels was investigated. The research was carried 157 associate degree students with 4-6 age group siblings and their mothers studying at Erzincan Binali Yıldırım University's Health Services and Refahiye Health Services Vocational School. In the study, it was applied the “Nomophobia Scale (NMP- Q)” to adolescents and “Digital Game Addiction Scale (DOBE)” for children aged 4-6 to mothers. As a result of the study, a positive and weak relationship was found between the levels of nomophobia of adolescents and the digital game addiction of 4-6 years old children. In addition, it was determined that adolescents' smartphone use and digital game time made a significant difference on the digital game addiction of 4-6 year old children. In line with the results, it can be suggested to examine the digital game addiction of 4-6 year old children in the context of siblings and with different dimensions.
