Overview

Observational analysis reveals smartphone addiction predicts cognitive failures in university students, indicating potential risks to mental functioning.

Key Points

  • Smartphone addiction significantly predicts cognitive failures, with a positive correlation of r = .423.
  • Overall cognitive failures were assessed through the Cognitive Failures Questionnaire; significant correlations were found in all subscales.
  • Analysis involved Pearson’s correlations and simple linear regressions, explaining 13.6% to 18.6% of variance in outcomes.
  • These findings suggest interventions are needed to reduce cognitive costs of smartphone use among young adults.
