  La adicción al teléfono móvil entre los estudiantes universitarios en China se ha convertido en una preocupación significativa, con un impacto creciente en la salud mental que ha captado la atención de los círculos académicos. Este estudio tiene como objetivo profundizar en la relación entre la adicción al teléfono móvil y la salud mental entre los estudiantes, explorando posibles mecanismos subyacentes. Se realizó una encuesta transversal exhaustiva con 581 estudiantes de la Universidad Huazhong en Wuhan, China, para evaluar este fenómeno. Nuestros hallazgos indican una correlación negativa entre la adicción al teléfono móvil y la salud mental. Además, la calidad del sueño parece actuar como un mediador parcial en esta relación, lo que sugiere que la mala calidad del sueño puede agravar los efectos adversos del uso excesivo del teléfono móvil en la salud mental. Estos resultados subrayan la necesidad urgente de que los administradores universitarios, los proveedores de atención médica y las familias reconozcan y aborden las implicaciones del uso excesivo del teléfono móvil entre los estudiantes. Este estudio contribuye a una mejor comprensión de cómo la adicción al teléfono móvil podría potencialmente alterar el bienestar mental en la población universitaria.

  Mobile phone addiction among university students in China has emerged as a significant concern, with its impact on mental health drawing increasing attention in academic circles. This study aims to delve deeper into the relationship between mobile phone addiction and mental health among students, exploring potential underlying mechanisms. A comprehensive cross-sectional survey involving 581 students from Huazhong University in Wuhan, China, was conducted to assess this phenomenon. Our findings indicate a negative correlation between mobile phone addiction and mental health. Furthermore, sleep quality appears to serve as a partial mediator in this relationship, suggesting that poor sleep quality may exacerbate the adverse effects of excessive mobile phone usage on mental health. These insights underscore the urgent need for university administrators, healthcare providers, and families to recognize and address the implications of mobile phone overuse among students. This study contributes to a better understanding of how mobile phone addiction could potentially disrupt mental well-being in the university student population.
