Abstract

"During this coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, smartphones play an important role in online classes, study, and entertainment. However, excessive use may lead to smartphone addiction (SPA). The incidence of SPA among students has increased with the spread of COVID-19 and threatens to impair home-based students’ learning efficiency and physical and mental health. This study aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest achievements in SPA prevention and treatment, and a theoretical basis for future experimental research and clinical treatment, while considering their applicability during the current pandemic. We researched the core literature in Chinese, English, and Korean databases from 2000 to 2021; 3208 articles were identified. After reading the titles, abstracts, and full texts, 53 articles were selected. Research on SPA interventions was relatively limited; we identified six types of prevention and treatment measures: psychotherapies, cognitive training, behavioral intervention, application restriction, social intervention, and complementary and alternative medicine. They can be implemented by students, parents, or online experts. Future research should focus on developing early measures to identify and prevent SPA and enhance students’ change motivation."

学生智能手机成瘾预防和干预策略的系统回顾：在新冠肺炎大流行期间的适用性

“在这次冠状病毒（新冠肺炎）大流行期间，智能手机在在线课程、学习和娱乐中发挥着重要作用。然而，过度使用可能会导致智能手机成瘾（SPA）随着新冠肺炎的传播，学生中的SPA发病率增加，并有可能损害家庭学生的学习效率和身心健康。本研究旨在全面综述SPA预防和治疗的最新成果，并为未来的实验研究和临床治疗提供理论依据，同时考虑其在当前疫情中的适用性。从2000年到2021年，我们研究了中文、英文和韩语数据库中的核心文献；鉴定出3208篇文章。在阅读了标题、摘要和全文后，选出53篇文章。对SPA干预措施的研究相对有限；我们确定了六种类型的预防和治疗措施：心理治疗、认知训练、行为干预、应用限制、社会干预以及补充和替代医学。它们可以由学生、家长或专家来实施。未来的研究应侧重于制定早期措施，以识别和预防SPA，增强学生的改变动机。“
