“…Our main emphasis was the measurement invariance, because it points towards the comparability factor when considering different countries. Phubbing Scale is of interest to researchers in many countries and is translated into various languages, such as Turkish (Argan et al, 2019;Çikrikci et al, 2019), Spanish (Blanca & Bendayan, 2018), Polish , Croatian (Brkljačić et al, 2018), Persian (Zamani et al, 2020), Indonesian (Latifa et al, 2019), Italian (Guazzini et al, 2019) and Ukrainian (Ivanova et al, 2020). There is evidence that cultural factors play an important role in behaviours related to new media such as Facebook use or addiction (Abbas & Mesch, 2015;Błachnio et al, 2016;Qiu et al, 2013), Internet use or addiction (Błachnio et al, 2017;, and social networking sites use or addiction (Choi et al, 2011).…”

“…Phubbing behavior is related to smartphone dependence, which requires self-control to handle and stop smartphone dependency (Chotpitayasunondh & Douglas, 2018;Latifa, Mumtaz, & Subchi, 2019). Selfcontrol refers to a person's ability to hold on to long-term goals by resisting external temptations that negatively affect the self (Tangney et al, 2004).…”

Millennials were very familiar with the use of smartphones. Excessive use of smartphones could trigger the problem of phubbing behavior that ignores the interlocutor by focusing more on accessing the applications on his smartphone rather than interacting directly with the individual in front of him. The anxiety of being left behind or unable to receive or update information, called Fear of missing out (FoMO) related to phubbing behavior. Low self-control was a factor in problematic smartphone use, including phubbing behavior. This study aimed to see whether there was a relationship between Fear of missing out (FoMO) and self-control in phubbing behavior in the millennial generation. This research used a quantitative survey with accidental sampling techniques. The number of samples in this study was 400 millennial generations in Indonesia. Data collection techniques are carried out online using Google Forms. The results of data collection were analyzed using multiple regression analysis. The result showed that there was a relationship between Fear of missing out (FoMO) and self-control with phubbing behavior (R = 0.584, R 2 = 0.341, F = 102.542, p = 0.000, p <0.05). The partial t-test found that the self-control variable affected phubbing behavior, and the partial t-test found that FoMO also affected phubbing behavior. Self-control contributed more to phubbing behavior than FoMO.

“…Previous studies on factors influencing phubbing investigated factors associated with technology addiction. 15 Research has also investigated the personality traits of individuals (boredom, narcissism, and conscientiousness) in association with phubbing 16 and phubbing among parents and caregivers. 17 In situations where the non-face-to-face classes predominantly given to, phubbing of nursing students are likely to increase with Corona pandemic.…”

Objective This study investigated phubbing (the act of ignoring one’s companion or companions to pay attention to one’s smartphone) and examined the factors affecting phubbing among nursing students in South Korea.Methods A cross-sectional survey design was adopted, and a self-reported questionnaire was used. Data were collected from 200 nursing students in two cities. Self-administered questionnaires included demographic data, smartphone addiction, media multitasking motivation, interpersonal competency, and phubbing.Results Phubbing was positively correlated with smartphone addiction (r=0.41, p<0.001) and media multitasking motivation (r=0.16, p<0.05), and negatively correlated with interpersonal competence (r=-0.51, p<0.001). Factors influencing nursing students’ phubbing were interpersonal competency (β=-0.59, p<0.001), media multitasking motivation (β=0.24, p<0.001), smartphone addiction (β=0.19, p<0.01) and interpersonal relationships (β=0.14, p<0.05). The model including these variables accounted for 43% of variance in phubbing.Conclusion Nursing students showed a moderate level of phubbing, and interpersonal competency was an important factor for reducing their phubbing of nursing students. Since phubbing occurs frequently among nursing students, educators in nursing are required to develop and implement active interventional measures to help nursing students avoid phubbing and improve their interpersonal relationships by increasing their empathic ability and communication skills.
