“…For nursing students, the post-traumatic stress disorder received during COVID-19 is difficult to recover in the short term. Anxiety and depression still affect their studies and life ( 36 ). Nursing educators could carry out rich psychological and cultural activities through group sandbox games, psychological skits, and heart-to-heart conversations, which enhance nursing students’ ability to relieve negative emotions ( 37 , 38 ).…”

PurposeThe regularity of epidemic prevention and control measures in China has meant that nursing students have been exposed to more electronic devices, while problematic smartphone use has increased. The purpose of this study is to determine the prospective associations among time management tendency, negative emotions, and problematic smartphone use in nursing students during the COVID-19 pandemic.MethodsA longitudinal study was conducted between November 2021 and May 2022. A total of 989 nursing students participated. The convenience sampling method was adopted and the following tools were used: the Adolescence Time Management Disposition Scale, the Depression Anxiety Stress Scales – 21, and the Mobile Phone Addiction Index. Multiple parallel mediation models were used by Mplus.ResultsTime management tendency had a significantly negative effect on problematic smartphone use (p < 0.05). Further tests using mediation models showed that stress as a negative emotion mediated the relationship between time management tendency and problematic smartphone use (p < 0.05) over time.ConclusionNursing educators need to strengthen the stress resistance and time management ability of nursing students.

“…Many studies have focused on nursing students (Ayar & Gürkan, 2022; Çatıker et al, 2021; Çobanoğlu et al, 2021; Özdil et al, 2022; Ramjan et al, 2021; Yatmaz et al, 2022) and medical students (Chatterjee & Kar, 2021; Gupta et al, 2021; Sanusi et al, 2022; Wang et al, 2021); but only a few investigated the effects of mobile technology misuse on healthcare professionals (Alan et al, 2022; Hoşgör et al, 2021) and post-graduated residents (Al Mukhaini et al, 2021).…”

Personal mobile phone has become an integral part of our lives. In the medical field, the growing popularity of medicine applications allows more rapid communication among healthcare professionals and quick access to helpful information, which facilitates and improves patient care practice. The use of smartphones during work activities by healthcare professionals can cause a lack of attention and errors while carrying out health procedures. The result might be an increased threat endangering the safety of patients. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the level of nomophobia (a psychological condition regarded as a fear of being detached from mobile phone connectivity) and its correlations with the use of smartphones in clinical practice, distraction due to personal use and policies regarding mobile phones use in a sample of resident doctors of a University of Southern Italy. A cross-sectional study was carried out on 204 hospital residents divided into three areas depending on their duties: clinical, surgical, and services. Two tools were used: nomophobia questionnaire (NMP-Q) and a composite questionnaire investigating smartphone use in the specific healthcare setting. Sixty percent of participants were affected by a moderate level of nomophobia and 10% by a severe degree, jeopardizing both the work and social relationships of young doctors. Smartphone use can certainly represent a helpful support tool for clinical practice; consequently, we believe it would be appropriate to find instruments to screen smartphone dependence or compulsive use to further prevent, early diagnose or treat this detrimental disorder for health professionals.
