虽然今天的手机和传统电脑之间的功能差异越来越不明显，但有一个区别仍然很明显-手机几乎总是在手边，允许用户在几乎任何时间和任何地点连接一系列服务和网络。皮尤中心的互联网和美国生活项目表明，大学生是手机技术最快的采用者，研究表明，高频率使用手机可能会影响他们的健康和行为。因此，我们在大样本的大学生中调查了总手机使用（N = 496）和短信（N = 490）对生活满意度（SWL）的关系。本研究假设学业成绩（GPA）和焦虑会介导这种关系。两个独立的路径模型表明，手机使用和短信模式有良好的整体拟合。手机使用/发短信与CPA呈负相关，与焦虑呈正相关;反过来。GPA与SWL呈正相关，焦虑与SWL呈负相关。这些发现增加了关于学生手机使用的争论，以及增加使用手机可能对学习成绩，心理健康和主观幸福感产生负面影响。(C)2013爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
While functional differences between today's cell phones and traditional computers are becoming less clear, one difference remains plain - cell phones are almost always on-hand and allow users to connect with an array of services and networks at almost any time and any place. The Pew Center's Internet and American Life Project suggests that college students are the most rapid adopters of cell phone technology and research is emerging which suggests high frequency cell phone use may be influencing their health and behavior. Thus, we investigated the relationships between total cell phone use (N = 496) and texting (N = 490) on Satisfaction with Life (SWL) in a large sample of college students. It was hypothesized that the relationship would be mediated by Academic Performance (GPA) and anxiety. Two separate path models indicated that the cell phone use and texting models had good overall fit. Cell phone use/texting was negatively related to CPA and positively related to anxiety; in turn. GPA was positively related to SWL while anxiety was negatively related to SWL. These findings add to the debate about student cell phone use, and how increased use may negatively impact academic performance, mental health, and subjective well-being or happiness.
