“…When both Turkish and non-Turkish literatures were examined, it was seen that the OHS is frequently used to measure happiness (e.g. Demir, 2020;Francis & Crea, 2018;Lin, Imani, Griffiths & Pakpour, 2020;Okur & Totan, 2019;Yıldırım & Sezer, 2020). Considering that the reliability values of the studies using the OHS in the Turkish literature have been in a wide range (.29 -.97), these differences should be investigated, and the reliability should be generalized for the Turkish sample.…”

“…Çalışmada OMÖ'nün seçilmesinin nedeni, pozitif psikoloji alanındaki çalışmaların son yıllarda artması ve mutluluğun pozitif psikoloji alanında en sık araştırılan kavramlardan biri olmasıdır (Compton & Hoffman, 2019). Ayrıca, hem Türk hem de yabancı literatür incelendiğinde, mutluluğun ölçülmesinde OMÖ'nün sıklıkla kullanıldığı görülmektedir (Demir, 2020;Francis & Crea, 2018;Lin, Imani, Griffiths, & Pakpour, 2020;Okur & Totan, 2019;Yıldırım & Sezer, 2020…”

The purpose of this study was to analyze the meta-analytical reliability generalization of short form and long form of the Oxford Happiness Scale (OHS) for Turkish sample. In addition, how different moderator variables affect reliability coefficients was examined. A number of criteria have been set to determine the studies to be included in meta-analysis. Of 95 Cronbach's Alpha coefficients obtained from 92 studies that were selected according to criteria were included in the meta-analysis. In the data analysis, reliability generalization based on meta-analysis was used. The effect of moderator variables on variability in reliability estimations as effect size was examined by Analog ANOVA. As a result of the research, it was found that the mean alpha was .81 for overall studies; .76 for the short form and .87 for the long form of OHS. In addition, it was concluded that number of items had a statistically significant effect on the reliability estimation in terms of heterogeneity of true effect sizes, and sample type had a statistically significant effect on the reliability estimation for OHS (long-form). But sample type had no effect on the reliability estimation for OHS-S (short-form), and field of study had no effect for both short and long form reliability estimates.

“…In addition to the nomophobia levels, there are also studies examining the factors affecting nomophobia. Sociodemographic characteristics, such as age, gender, ethnicity, and marital status (1,(18)(19)(20)(21), variables of emotions, thoughts and behaviors (22)(23)(24)(25), and comorbid psychiatric diagnoses (26), have an effect on nomophobia. In addition, it is known that personality traits influence the smartphone usage behaviors of individuals.…”

Background: Nomophobia, short for no mobile phobia, is the fear of being without a smartphone. Nomophobia is common, especially in the young population, with an increase in the use of technology in society. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the nomophobia levels of nursing students and the relationship between nomophobia and personality traits. Methods: This multicenter, descriptive, and relational study was carried out in three different universities. The students were reached via the Web-Anket application within June to July 2021. The nursing department students in Turkey (n = 818) constituted the research population. No sample selection was performed in the study, and all students who accepted to participate and met the inclusion criteria were included in the study. The study was conducted on 424 nursing students. The data were collected via an online personal information form, Nomophobia Questionnaire, and 10-Item Personality Inventory (TIPI). Percentage, mean ± standard deviation, analysis of variance, and Pearson correlation coefficient tests were used to analyze the data. Results: The mean age of the participants was 20.5 ± 1.8 years. Moreover, 84.7% of the participants were female. Additionally, 93.2% of the subjects lived with their parents, and 63.0% reported that the monthly income of the family was equal to monthly expenditures. It was shown that 31.1% of the students had mild nomophobia; nevertheless, 52.6% and 16.3% of the students had moderate and severe nomophobia, respectively. The total nomophobia score was observed to be 74.17 ± 25.53. The TIPI subdimensions’ mean scores were 9.87 ± 2.29, 8.83 ± 2.33, 8.66 ± 2.82, 10.66 ± 2.65, and 9.34 ± 3.04 for openness to experience, agreeableness, emotional stability, conscientiousness, and extroversion, respectively. This study revealed that students’ smartphone usage purposes and personality traits were related to their nomophobia levels. Conclusions: More than half of the nursing students had a moderate level of nomophobia. There is a relationship between the purpose of smartphone use and students’ personality traits with their nomophobia levels.

Mobile technologies have become one of the important parts of human life. Smartphones have become the most used technological devices of daily life, with newly added features every day. However, intense and non-functional use of these devices may cause problems. Nomophobia, which is defined as the fear of being without a mobile phone or being unable to be online, has begun to take place in literature as a current phenomenon. The present study discusses the variables of gender, age and anxiety as predictors of nomophobia in university students since the phenomenon is common especially in young people. The study group consists of 372 university students. Personal Information Form, Beck Anxiety Scale and Nomophobia scale were used as data collection tools in the study. Pearson correlational analysis and hierarchical regressions were conducted for data analysis. According to the results obtained from the study, anxiety total scale and subjective anxiety and somatic symptoms sub-dimensions were found to be positively associated with nomophobia. It was found that gender and subjective anxiety subdimension of anxiety scale significantly predicted nomophobia. On the other hand, it was found that the variable of age did not predict nomophobia significantly. The data obtained were discussed in the light of literature and suggestions were made to researchers.
