“…As such, it was decided that the criterion 'using a smartphone instead of actively participating in an on-going discussion being had by one's surrounding peers' should be used to include students into the study group. In the second step, the Phubbing Scale (Karadağ et al, 2015), a 5-point Likert scale composed of a total of 10 items measuring (i) Communication Disorders (5 items; α = .87) and (ii) Telephone Obsession (5 items; α = .85), was used. A score of 40 or more indicated an addiction to phubbing.…”

The aim of this work is to analyze both the reasons that young adults exhibit phubbing behaviors and the effects of these behaviors on their lives. Following a qualitative research approach, this study has been designed using a case study method. Selected using the criterion sampling method, participants consisted of a total of 9 university students studying in a School of Education in Turkey. The criterion used to include individuals into the sample group was 'using a smartphone instead of actively participating in an on-going discussion being had by one' s surrounding peers' as well as a high score on the Phubbing Scale form. Data were obtained using a semi-structured interview form composed of 18 open-ended questions. Both a descriptive and content analysis were used to evaluate the data. The study' s findings revealed that not only did smartphones negatively affect interpersonal relations, but also that phubbers lacked communication skills, experienced difficulty establishing and maintaining eye contact while using a smartphone, and misunderstood what was being discussed. Some participants even stated that they would become completely disconnected from the social environment while using a smartphone. It is argued in the discussion section that since smartphones have all the same features and abilities as traditional computers, they carry the same potential addictions as computers. Yet, instead of being restricted to a table, these addictions are now able to manifest in every aspect, environment, and moment of one' s life. As such, since phubbing carries with it a type of addiction that is much more devious and pervasion than most previous virtual reality related addictions, it is recommended that further research be conducted before serious psychopathological and sociological problems begin to manifest themselves throughout the population.

“…El término phubbing surge de la unión de las palabras "phone" (teléfono) y la palabra "snubbing" (des-preciar). Según Karadag et al (2015), el phubbing consiste en el acto de menospreciar o ignorar a quien nos acompaña al prestar mayor atención a nuestro celular (smartphone). En el caso del phubbing en la pareja, se refiere a cómo una persona percibe que su pareja lo menosprecia o ignora por estar prestando más atención a su celular (smartphone).…”

“…• Social Media Addiction and Phubbing Karadağ et al (2015) found that social media addiction has a great effect on phubbing behavior, and this is also related to the Internet addiction since social media functions through the Internet connection.

Mobile phones are the primary communication tools in every person's daily lives. As they started including the Internet and so let many applications to work in people's pockets, they became the tools of something more than communication, the tools of managing lives. However, besides easing many routines of daily lives, frequent use of these devices raised questions about whether they damage interpersonal communication, or not. Phubbing is the act when mobile devices lead people to ignore the ones beside them, and so cut the interpersonal communication. When this act is performed among couples of intimate relationships, this behavior is named as 'partner phubbing' (pphubbing). Studies found that by cutting the communication among romantic couples, by causing feelings of being ignored, and by raising doubt and jealousy, partner phubbing decreases relationship satisfaction. Accordingly, this study aims to compare perceived partner phubbing and the relationship satisfaction of people who are dating, and people who are currently married in Turkey. With a sample of 500 participants and being the first study conducted to measure the impact of partner phubbing on relationship satisfaction in Turkey, throughout a survey consisting of two scales (Pphubbing Scale and Relationship Satisfaction Scale) this study found that phubbing behavior is prevalently performed among couples in Turkey as well. However, results demonstrate that pphubbing behavior does not negatively impact the relationship satisfaction of couples in Turkey, the possible reasons of which are discussed.

İnternet kullanımı ile birlikte insanlara ceplerinde birçok uygulamayı taşıyabilme imkanı sunan günümüz cep telefonları artık iletişim kurmaktan daha fazlasının, hayatı yönetmenin amacı olarak kullanılıyor. Ancak bu cihazlar bir yandan yaşamları kolaylaştırırken, diğer yandan aşırı kullanımlarıyla kişiler arası iletişimi aksatıp aksatmadıklarıyla ilgili soruların belirmesine yol açıyorlar. Teknolojiyle meşgul olup yanındakiyle ilgilenmemek (phubbing), kişiler arası iletişimi aksatan bir eylem olarak beliriyor. Bu davranış çiftler arasında yapıldığında, adına teknolojiyle meşgul olup partnerle ilgilenmeme (partner phubbing) deniyor. Yapılan çalışmalara göre bu davranış duygusal ilişki içerisindeki çiftlerin iletişimini kopararak, partnerlerinin kendileriyle ilgilenmediği hissiyatına girerek, ayrıca da şüphe ve kıskançlık duygularını ortaya çıkararak ilişki memnuniyetinin düşmesine sebep oluyor. Bununla ilgili olarak, bu çalışmanın amacı Türkiye'de bulunan flört eden ve evli olan çiftlerin algıladıkları partnerle ilgilenmeme davranışı ve ilişki memnuniyetlerini karşılaştırmaktır. Bu konuda Türkiye'd...
