PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between nursing students' digital addiction and smartphone addiction levels and nomophobia. METHODS: This is a descriptive, correlational study. It was conducted with 215 nursing students in a university located in northeastern Turkey. RESULTS: A positive and moderate correlation was found between students' nomophobia levels with smartphone addiction and digital addiction levels (p < 0.05). Analysis of the regression coefficients determined that smartphone addiction (β = 0.765; p < 0.01) had a significant positive effect on nomophobia. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: In conclusion, nursing students should seek professional psychological help in developing health and life behaviors, such as sports, healthy eating, and sleep, to reduce nomophobia.
