Problematic smartphone use: An empirically validated model

作者：

Highlights：

• Problematic smartphone use (PSPU) entails addictive use, prohibited use, and risky behaviors.

• The tested PSPU pathway model showed an overall reasonable model fit.

• Addictive use is linked to excessive reassurance sought via smartphone use.

• Internalised psychopathology did not predict smartphone addiction.

• Attention impulsivity predicted addictive and antisocial use.
