Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the connections between life stress and smartphone addiction of nursing college students. The subjects included nursing college students in some areas. Data were collected in November and December, 2018 from a total of 240 subjects. Collected data were subjected to frequency, percentage, t-test, ${\chi}^2$-test, and ANOVA analyses to identify differences in smartphone addiction level and stress characteristics according to general characteristics. Correlations between smartphone addiction and stress characteristics were investigated by Pearson's correlation analysis, and factors influencing smartphone addiction were examined by hierarchical multiple regression analysis. The findings showed that independent variables had explanatory powers of 14.8% and 32.7% in Models 1 and 2, respectively. The study examined differences in smartphone addiction level according to the general characteristics of the subjects and found that female college students had a higher level of smartphone addiction than their male counterparts. The smartphone addiction level was high in those who were not satisfied with college life, used a smartphone for five hours or more a day, and spent many hours on SNS. Evaluation of differences in stress characteristics according to their general characteristics revealed female college students scored higher for stress characteristics. The means of the stress characteristics were also high for those who were not satisfied with college life, used a smartphone for many hours, and had a high risk of smartphone addiction. In conclusion, female gender, hours of smartphone usage and SNS, academic stress, and value stress were important factors influencing the smartphone addiction of nursing college students. These findings indicate the need to reinforce a stress management program for nursing college students and thus provide them with multifaceted support for stress management.

본 연구는 간호대학생의 생활스트레스와 스마트폰 중독 관련성을 살펴보고자 실시하였다. 연구대상자는 일부 지역 간호대학생을 대상으로 하였고, 자료수집기간은 2018년 11월부터 12월까지이며, 분석대상은 240명 이었다. 자료 분석은 일반적 특성에 따른 스마트폰 중독수준, 스트레스 특성의 차이를 알아보기 위하여 빈도, 백분율, t-test, ${\chi}^2$-test, ANOVA분석을 하였고, 스마트폰 중독과 스트레스 특성과의 상관관계는 Pearson's correlation을 이용하였으며, 스마트폰 중독에 미치는 영향 요인을 위계적 다중회귀분석(Hierarchical multiple regression)으로 하였다. 그 결과 스마트폰 중독에 영향을 미치는 요인은 모델 1의 독립변수 설명력은 14.8%이었으며, 모델 2의 설명력은 32.7%이었다. 일반적 특성에 따른 스마트폰 중독 수준의 차이에서는 성별에서 여학생이 남학생보다 스마트폰 중독 수준이 높았으며, 대학생활에 만족하지 않는 군, 스마트폰 사용시간이 5시간 이상인 군, SNS 사용시간이 많은 군에서 스마트폰 중독 수준이 높았다. 또한 스트레스 특성과의 차이에서는 여학생이 스트레스 특성의 평균이 높았으며, 대학생활에 만족하지 않는군, 스마트폰 사용시간이 많은 군, 스마트폰 중독 위험군이 높았다. 결론적으로, 간호대학생의 스마트폰 중독에 여학생, 스마트폰 사용시간, SNS 사용시간, 학업스트레스, 가치관스트레스가 중요한 영향요인으로 나타났다. 따라서 간호 대학생의 스트레스 관리 프로그램을 강화하여 스트레스 관리를 위한 다각적인 지원이 필요하다고 하겠다.
