Abstract

Smartphone distraction is pervasive in university classrooms, yet our understanding of its determinants remains incomplete. Drawing on complexity theory and the technology–personal–environment framework, this study employs multiple data sets for exploring the primary predictors and their configurations in determining in-class smartphone distraction among university students. Based on the interview data from 15 undergraduate students, seven primary predictors of smartphone distraction were identified. Subsequently, the study delved into the questionnaire data collected from 563 Chinese university students and revealed four combinations of the predictors for in-class smartphone distraction through fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis. This study contributes to the literature on in-class smartphone distraction by revealing its complex nature and offering practical strategies for educational practitioners to counteract the adverse effects of smartphone distraction in university classrooms.

走出 "数字兔子洞":大学生课上智能手机分心的配置分析
智能手机分散注意力的现象在大学课堂中十分普遍,但我们对其决定因素的了解仍不全面。本研究借鉴复杂性理论和技术-个人-环境框架,采用多种数据集来探索大学生课堂智能手机分心的主要预测因素及其配置。根据对 15 名本科生的访谈数据,确定了智能手机分心的七个主要预测因素。随后,该研究深入研究了从 563 名中国大学生中收集的问卷数据,并通过模糊集定性比较分析,揭示了课内智能手机分心预测因素的四种组合。本研究揭示了课内智能手机分心的复杂性,并为教育从业者提供了应对大学课堂智能手机分心不良影响的实用策略,为课内智能手机分心的文献研究做出了贡献。
