Resumen

La adicción al teléfono móvil entre los estudiantes universitarios en China se ha convertido en una preocupación significativa, con un impacto creciente en la salud mental que ha captado la atención de los círculos académicos. Este estudio tiene como objetivo profundizar en la relación entre la adicción al teléfono móvil y la salud mental entre los estudiantes, explorando posibles mecanismos subyacentes. Se realizó una encuesta transversal exhaustiva con 581 estudiantes de la Universidad Huazhong en Wuhan, China, para evaluar este fenómeno. Nuestros hallazgos indican una correlación negativa entre la adicción al teléfono móvil y la salud mental. Además, la calidad del sueño parece actuar como un mediador parcial en esta relación, lo que sugiere que la mala calidad del sueño puede agravar los efectos adversos del uso excesivo del teléfono móvil en la salud mental. Estos resultados subrayan la necesidad urgente de que los administradores universitarios, los proveedores de atención médica y las familias reconozcan y aborden las implicaciones del uso excesivo del teléfono móvil entre los estudiantes. Este estudio contribuye a una mejor comprensión de cómo la adicción al teléfono móvil podría potencialmente alterar el bienestar mental en la población universitaria.
