Examining the Relationship Between Smartphone Addiction, Trait Anxiety, Mental Well-Being, and Self-Regulation Skills in Adolescents

Abstract

Adolescence is a critical period for psychological development. Identifying variables associated with mental well-being during this stage is essential for psychological health. Therefore, the present study examined the mediating roles of smartphone addiction and trait anxiety in the relationship between self-regulation skills and mental well-being among adolescents. The participants consisted of a total of 490 high school students, including 226 females (46.1%) and 264 males (53.9%), aged between 13 and 18 years. The findings revealed a significant and positive relationship between self-regulation skills and mental well-being. Analyses further indicated that smartphone addiction significantly mediated the relationship between self-regulation skills and mental well-being. Similarly, trait anxiety was found to play a significant mediating role in this relationship. Finally, the study demonstrated that the serial mediation of smartphone addiction and trait anxiety was significant in the relationship between self-regulation skills and mental well-being among adolescents. Based on these findings, it is suggested that school-based interventions designed to enhance self-regulation skills may support adolescents’ mental well-being. Furthermore, school-based preventive programs targeting smartphone addiction and trait anxiety may be implemented to help protect adolescents’ mental well-being.

Ergenlerde Akıllı Telefon Bağımlılığı, Sürekli Kaygı, Mental İyi Oluş ve Öz-Denetim Becerisi Arasındaki İlişkinin İncelenmesi

Abstract

Ergenlik dönemi, psikolojik gelişim için kritik bir dönemdir. Bu dönemde mental iyi oluşla ilişkili değişkenleri belirlemek psikolojik sağlık açısından önemlidir. Bundan dolayı bu çalışmada ergenlerde mental iyi oluşla öz-denetim becerileri arasındaki ilişkide akıllı telefon bağımlılığı ve sürekli kaygının aracılık rolleri incelenmiştir. Bu çalışmanın katılımcıları 226 kadın (%46.1) ve 264 erkek (%53.9) olmak üzere toplam 490 lise öğrencisinden oluşmaktadır. Katılımcıların yaşları 13 ile 18 arasında değişmektedir. Araştırmada öz-denetim becerileri ile mantal iyi oluş arasında anlamlı ve pozitif bir ilişki elde edilmiştir. Analizler öz denetim becerisi ile mental iyi oluş arasındaki ilişkide akıllı telefon bağımlılığının aracılık rolünün anlamlı olduğunu göstermektedir. Analizler aynı zamanda öz-denetim becerileri ile mental iyi oluş arasındaki ilişkide sürekli kaygının aracılık rolünün anlamlı olduğunu göstermektedir. Çalışmada son olarak ergenlerde öz-denetim becerileri ile mental iyi oluş arasındaki ilişkide akıllı telefon bağımlılığı ve sürekli kaygının seri aracılığının anlamlı olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bu çalışmanın bulgularından yola çıkarak ergenlerde mental iyi oluşu desteklemek amacıyla öz denetim becerilerini arttıracak okul temelli müdahaleler gerçekleştirilebilir. Ayrıca ergenlerin mental iyi oluşlarını koruyabilmek amacıyla akıllı telefon bağımlılığı ve sürekli kaygıyı önleyici okul temelli müdahaleler gerçekleştirilebilir.
