作者:

Highlights:

• 101 students completed problematic smartphone use (PSU), and depression/anxiety scales.

• Their smartphone use was monitored over a week.

• In addition, we asked about the participants' daily depressive mood each day.

• PSU positively predicted screentime minutes (but not screen unlocks) over a week.

• Depression negatively predicted screen unlocks (but not screentime) over a week.
