“…The ages were similar to the studies done by Choi et al, Krajewska et al, Dixit et al 31,33,34 In the manner of the age effect, there were no significant differences in nomophobia levels, sub‐dimensions and Fagerström scores ( P > .05). Like the nomophobia scores of university students in other studies there was no significant difference about age factor 2,30,35,36 . Controversially Erdem et al, 37 found a significant relationship between age and nomophobia.…”

“…Dalbudak et al Supporting this claim. 35 Looking at the overall scale, it was seen that the department did not affect the nomophobia dependency level, sub-dimensions of nomophobia scale and the Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence Scale scores (P > .05) but there was a significant difference between the departments in terms of phone usage hours (P < .01*). Dalbudak et al found that 129 (31.6%) participants' daily phone using time was between 1-3 hours, 215 (52.7%) 4-6 hours, 52 (12.7%) 7-9 hours and 12 (3.0%) 10 hours or more.…”

The phenomenon of nomophobia, defined as the anxiety experienced when a person is without their mobile phone or is unable to use it, has been identified as having serious negative effects on individuals, particularly students. Previous research has explored the relationship between personality traits and nomophobia, but the findings have been inconclusive. The main objective of this study was to classify personality types through latent class analysis and explore the relationship between these personality types and nomophobia. The Chinese version of the Nomophobia Scale and the Chinese brief version of the Big Five Personality Inventory were used in this study to survey 1906 Chinese college students. The results indicated that (1) a four‐class model provided the best fit and categorized the personality traits as the overcontrolled class, resilient class, moderate class, and vulnerable class; (2) significant differences were observed between the four personality types and nomophobia, with overcontrolled and resilient personality types consistently scoring significantly lower than moderate and vulnerable personality types. Our finding highlights the key feature of the study.
