“…In the current era of digital revolution, digital technologies have become integral to many aspects of daily life, and transformed the functioning of societies across the globe ( Zhou et al, 2022 ). With the advent of mobile technologies and complex digital systems such as artificial intelligence or the Internet of Things, many digital devices and systems such as laptops, smartphones, tablets, social networking sites, or other online platforms have become prominently used among people of all ages ( Bucci et al, 2019 ; Wiraniskala and Sujarwoto, 2020 ; Chang et al, 2022 ).…”

“…Considering the potential harmful outcomes of both digital addiction and depression, researchers have so far paid significant attention to the relationship between digital addiction and depression. Indeed, several studies revealed strong associations between depression and internet addiction ( Demir and Kutlu, 2016 ; Hoare et al, 2017 ; Lee et al, 2019 ; Marzilli et al, 2020 ), smartphone addiction ( Sohn et al, 2019 ; Chang et al, 2022 ; Peng et al, 2022 ), social media addiction ( Donnelly and Kuss, 2016 ; Al Mamun and Griffiths, 2019 ; Ho, 2021 ; Foroughi et al, 2022 ), and video game addiction ( Krossbakken et al, 2018 ; Cudo et al, 2022 ; Hu et al, 2022 ; Zhou et al, 2022 ).…”

IntroductionUsing digital addiction as an umbrella term to cover any type of addictions to digital technologies such as the internet, smartphones, social media, or video games, the current study aimed to reveal the intellectual structure and evolution of research addressing digital addiction-depression relationship.MethodsThe study combined bibliometric and science mapping analysis methods for this purpose. Data for the study was gathered from Web of Science Core Collection after a comprehensive process of data search/extraction, and 241 articles were included in the final data set. A period-based, comparative science mapping analysis was performed using the SciMAT software.ResultsThe analysis of data over three periods, Period 1 (1983-2016), Period 2 (2017-2019), and Period 3 (2020-2022) showed that internet addiction was the most significant theme across all three periods, which was followed by social media addiction. Depression, which emerged as a significant theme during Period 1, was later covered under anxiety disorder theme. Research interest was mostly on factors related to both addiction and depression such as cognitive distortion, insomnia, loneliness, self-esteem, social support, alexithymia, as well as cybervictimization or academic performance.DiscussionThe results suggested that much research is warranted on the digital addiction-depression relationship in different age cohorts, especially children and elderly. Similarly, the current analysis showed that this line of research particularly focused on internet, gaming and social media addiction, and evidence with regard to other types of digital addiction or related compulsive behaviors was almost absent. In addition, research was mostly inclined to understanding cause-effect relationships, which is significant, but preventive strategies seemed to be barely addressed. Likewise, the smartphone addiction-depression relationship arguably garnered less research interest, so future research would contribute to the field in this respect.

“…One of the phenomena that give concern is parental phubbing or parents who commit phubbing when interacting with their children (Wang, Gao, et al, 2020). Recent studies showed that parents who commit phubbing are associated with the problematic mobile phone use in children (Hong et al, 2019) and the emergence of depression in children in late childhood (Xie & Xie, 2020), positively related to children's social withdrawal and aggression (Wang et al, 2022), and indirectly affecting children's internet gaming addiction (Zhou et al, 2022). Parental phubbing also has the same influence in adolescence, such as associated with depression in adolescence (Xie & Xie, 2020), significantly increasing mobile phone dependence behavior in adolescents (Liu et al, 2019), negatively affecting the adolescent life satisfaction (Liu et al, 2019), positively correlated to depression and feelings of rejection (Xie & Xie, 2020;Khare & Qasim, 2019), and increasing the risk of adolescent cyberbullying behavior (Wang et al, 2020).…”

Parental phubbing is the latest phenomenon that raises concerns because of the changes in habits due to technological developments. It is a form of parental behavior that ignores children as they tend to focus more on activities on gadgets or smartphones. Current parental phubbing studies are limited; however, previous studies have showed the negative impact of parental phubbing on children in late childhood, adolescent, and emerging adulthood, especially on their mental well-being. Therefore, our study aims to determine the impact of parental phubbing on participants’ well-being using a quantitative approach of a comparative independent sample between participants experiencing high and low parental phubbing. The results showed that there were some differences in the effects of parental phubbing on mental well-being, especially mother's parental phubbing (PP-M), for both male and female. In general, parental phubbing affects 3 aspects of mental well-being: a sense of confidence, hope for the future, problem solving and decision-making abilities with a medium effect size. The results indicated that increasingly sophisticated technological developments have affected some changes in behavior and habits through parenting practices, which are not so realized to have negative consequences on the participants’ mental well-being. Our study can also be a reference for new knowledge for practitioners and parents to build an awareness to minimize the further negative impact of parental phubbing behavior on children's development and well-being (in the wide range of developmental stages).

“…The two most typical profiles are adolescents living with their parents and independent young adults living by themselves [4]. In adolescents, parent–child conflict is a risk factor for gaming disorder [5]. Indeed, conflict with parents over excessive gaming activity is part of the usual description of gaming disorder in children and adolescents [6].…”
