Pages

Abstract

 Aims Mobile Phone Use has become increasingly popular among university students. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the status of Mobile Phone Use among university students and its relationship with demographic characteristics. Instruments & Methods In this Cross-Sectional Study conducted in 2016, 272 students of Yazd University of Medical Sciences were selected using a stratified random sampling method. The data collection tools included demographic information and excessive Mobile Phone Use questionnaire. The data were analyzed by SPSS 16 software using Mann-Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests. Findings There was no significant relationship between students’ age, gender, education level, and residence place with Mobile Phone Use total score (p>0. 05). However, there was a significant relationship between the variables of cigarette smoking, coffee consumption, and listening to music before bedtime with the Mobile Phone Use total score among university students (p<0. 05). Moreover, there was a significant relationship between the education level of university students’ parents and Mobile Phone Use score (p<0. 05). Conclusion High value of adequate and correct education of students towards Internet and social media addiction, in addition to increase the level of media literacy are critical issues to consider in this regard.
