Objectives: This study aimed to identify agreement between smartphone addiction (SA) and perceived SA among adolescents. Methods: This survey was done with 394 subjects conveniently sampled from elementary school (ES), middle school (MS), academic (AHS) and vocational (VHS) high school. The data were collected from June 20 to July 20, 2013 with self-administered questionnaire and analyzed by descriptive statistics, chi-square test and Cohen's kappa (${\kappa}$). Results: High risk of SA showed 2.8% in total, 1.0% in ES, 2.1% in MS, 4.1% in AHS, and 4.0% in VHS, which was statistically different by type of school (p<0.001). Perceived SA showed 22.6% in total, 9.0% in ES, 21.9% in MS, 33.7% in AHS, and 26.0% in VHS, which was statistically different by type of school (p=0.003). The agreement between SA and perceived SA was 82.0% (${\kappa}$=0.54) in total, 91.8% (${\kappa}$=0.53) in ES, 75.0% (${\kappa}$=0.33) in MS, 77.5% (${\kappa}$=0.53) in AHS, and 84.8% (${\kappa}$=0.65) in VHS. Conclusion: The agreement between SA and perceived SA showed moderate in general, but fair in MS. It is suggested to develop step-by-step activities to reduce the gap between SA and perceived SA among adolescen, in particular, middle school students.

Objectives : The current study investigated the risk of smartphone addiction among children and adolescents with or without attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), risk of depression, anxiety, and self-esteem using the Smartphone Addiction Scale Proneness, Kovac's Children's Depression Inventory, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, commonly used in clinical medicine. Methods : Ninety five students with ADHD who visited psychiatry outpatient clinics completed the questionnaire. At the same time, 592 middle and high school students living in a similar area regardless of ADHD diagnosis, completed the questionnaire as control subjects. Results : Overall, 40.0% of 95 ADHD and 12.8% of 592 control subjects were classified as the smartphone addiction proneness group, 26.3% of the ADHD subjects and 8.3% of the control group were classified as the depression group, and 32.6% of the ADHD subjects and 16.2% of the control group were classified as the anxiety group. Significant differences were observed between the two groups. Conclusion : The results of this study suggest that ADHD subjects are more prone to smartphone addiction, becoming depressed or anxious than those in the control group. From this study, we could suggest that students with ADHD are more easily affected by smartphone addiction than normal control subjects. In addition, we might understand how some psychiatric problems like depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem are related to ADHD and smartphone addiction.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to examine the trend of adolescent's smart phone addiction researches from 2012 to 2014 in Korea, and to propose further study for prevention of adolescent's smart phone addiction. Methods: Subjects were 169 researches about adolescent's smart phone addiction from 2012 to 2014 in Korea, and the theme was summarized as following: variables associated with adolescent's smart phone addiction, prevention and intervention strategies of it, the status and development of adolescent's smart phone addiction scale, awareness and prevention of smart phone addiction. Results: As a result of this study, 63.3% were as the most source of researches in 2014, and master's thesis was 74.6 percent. According to the theme of research, the most effects on smart phone addition is self-control and parenting and the most relational variables with smart phone addition are anxiety and parenting. The most affected by smart phone addiction is adaption of school life and conversational breakdown. The studies about prevention of smart phone addiction and intervention examine the effect of therapy program and group consultation. Conclusions: The educational program for using smart phone should be made and applied for preventing adolescent's smart phone addiction.

이 연구의 목적은 청소년의 성별과 학교급별 휴대전화 과다사용의 차이를 규명하는 것이다. 연구를 위해 경기도 소재의 남녀공학 중 고등학교를 각 1개씩 편의표집하고, 휴대전화 과다사용을 측정하는 자기보고식 검사지를 이용하여 자료 수집하였으며, 565명의 자료 중 휴대전화 과다사용 수준이 표본 평균보다 높은 253명을 추출하여 일원다변량분산분석을 통해 연구문제를 검증하였다. 다변량분산분석결과가 통계적으로 유의하였다. 추가적인 단변량 분석 결과에서 성별에 따른 차이는 '일상생활장애'와 '내성' 요인에, 학교급에 따른 차이는 '학교생활장애', '일상생활장애', '긍정적기대' 요인에 대한 차이가 통계적으로 유의하였다. 단계적 분석을 적용할 경우 성별 차이는 '일상생활장애'에서, 학교급별 차이는 '긍정적기대'를 제외한 4개 요인에서 통계적 유의성이 나타났다. 연구결과를 통해 휴대전화 과다사용 예방과 치료에 있어서 성별과 학교급과 같은 사용자의 기본 특성이 고려되어야 함을 논의하였다.

Objectives : As of 2013, South Korea ranked number one in the world in smartphone penetration rate with 67.6%. Unfortunately, with the rise of smart phone use, side effects such as fraud, loss of personal information, identity theft, formation and widening of a mobile information gap, and last, but not least, smart phone addiction, also increased. Methods : Seventh (7th)graders from a girls' junior high school in Seoul, the capital of South Korea, we reevaluated the Smart phone Addiction Proneness Scale (S-scale). Among the 9 students classified as high risk users, 5 were randomly selected for a study group, and the remaining 4 students, meanwhile, were designated as a control group. The study group received Korean medicine music therapy (KMMT) in a total of 8 sessions, each session lasting 50 minutes. Both pre- and post-interventions, the two groups completed the S-scale, Harris and Harris' concentration grid exercise, STAI, and STAXI-K. We analyzed the data by t-test and paired t-test using IBM SPSS Statistics. Results : KMMT had a significant influence on proneness to smart phone addiction (t=3.130, p=.035). KMMT had positive effects on concentration improvement (t=-2.935, p=.043), trait-anxiety symptoms improvement (t=2,992, p=.040), and anger-expression control (t=4.416, p=.012). Conclusions : KMMT had positive, improving effects on trait anxiety and anger expression, which in turn enhanced the improvement of concentration as well as the decrease of smart phone-addiction proneness.
