Overview

Randomized trial examines nomophobia's impact on anxiety and depression in mothers of children with ADHD, suggesting clinical significance.

Key Points

  • This study aims to explore the relationship between nomophobia and psychological symptoms, specifically anxiety and depression, in mothers of children with ADHD.
  • Included 89 mothers, 41 with children diagnosed with ADHD and 48 with no psychiatric disorders.
  • Participants completed the Nomophobia Questionnaire (NMP-Q), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI).
  • Statistical analyses included correlation coefficients and multiple regression.
  • Mothers of children with ADHD exhibited higher nomophobia scores with a positive correlation to anxiety (r = 0.29, p = 0.01) and depression (r = 0.48, p < 0.001).
  • Within the ADHD group, nomophobia correlated significantly with anxiety (r = 0.34, p = 0.03) and depression (r = 0.51, p = 0.001).
  • Depression was a significant predictor of nomophobia with R² = 0.35, p < 0.001.
