摘要：

Does smartphone usage relate to individual well-being? This study examined the relationship between smartphone usage, social relations and life satisfaction of Hong Kong college students. A cross-sectional survey study was administered to 244 male and 399 female college students aged 18-27 years from nine universities in Hong Kong. Results indicated that smartphone usage had a negative association with peer relations and family relations, while it had a positive relationship with life satisfaction. Moreover, peer and family relations were positively associated with life satisfaction. These results suggested that smartphone usage had a positive direct relationship with life satisfaction and a negative indirect relationship with it. Finally, peer and family relations were found to suppress the positive association between smartphone usage and life satisfaction.
