Özet

Aim: This study was carried out to determine the effects of the nomophobic behaviors of student nurses using smartphones on their social phobia levels. Methods: This cross-sectional and correlational study was carried out between 1 March and 30 September 2019 with the participation of nursing students (N=409) enrolled at a state university in Turkey. Results: A significant relationship was determined between nomophobic behavior and social phobia according to the results of the regression and correlation analyses carried out between the scale scores of the participants (p<0.05). Conclusion: It is highly important to raise awareness on the time spent with smartphones by nursing students and the harms of this issue. Additionally, countries need to take social and political precautions to protect individuals from nomophobia and social phobia. Considering the time that nursing students spend on the phone, the use of smartphones can be turned into a positive direction (educational, online course, personal development). This way, nursing students who experience social phobia might be supported.
