Abstract
ABSTRACT The present study aims to reveal whether gender, age, personality traits, chronotypes, and smartphone screen-time predict smartphone addiction. This study used the composite scale of morningness, big five inventory, and smartphone addiction scale for collecting data. Females showed higher levels of smartphone addiction than males. Furthermore, age was not a significant predictor of smartphone addiction. We revealed that conscientiousness and neuroticism were significant predictors of smartphone addiction while extraversion, agreeableness, and openness to experience were not. We also found that neurotic people had higher levels of smartphone addiction. We revealed in this study that people with evening chronotypes had higher levels of smartphone addiction. In conclusion, female, neurotic, eveningness chronotypes, and students who use smartphones at high levels were more addicted to smartphones.
期刊介绍：
The principal aim of Biological Rhythm Research is to cover any aspect of research into the broad topic of biological rhythms. The area covered can range from studies at the genetic or molecular level to those of behavioural or clinical topics. It can also include ultradian, circadian, infradian or annual rhythms. In this way, the Editorial Board tries to stimulate interdisciplinary rhythm research. Such an aim reflects not only the similarity of the methods used in different fields of chronobiology, but also the fact that many influences that exert controlling or masking effects are common. Amongst the controlling factors, attention is paid to the effects of climate change on living organisms. So, papers dealing with biometeorological aspects can also be submitted.
The Journal publishes original scientific research papers, review papers, short notes on research in progress, book reviews and summaries of activities, symposia and congresses of national and international organizations dealing with rhythmic phenomena.
