Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2025, Vol 8, Issue 02
Abstract
Phubbing is the behavior of someone who focuses on a smartphone while talking to others, ignoring other people and the social interactions that we often encounter. This study aims to identify whether there is a correlation between problematic smartphone use and academic cyberloafing with phubbing behavior among university students. The subjects of this study were 146 students in Kupang East Nusa Tenggara using quota sampling. This research instrument uses a phubbing scale, problematic smartphone use scale, and academic cyberloafing scale. Based on the results of data analysis, the first hypothesis in this study reads problematic smartphone use and academic cyberloafing correlate with phubbing behavior, which is accepted. The second hypothesis which reads problematic smartphone use positively correlates with phubbing behavior, is assumed. In the third hypothesis which reads academic cyberloafing is positively correlated with phubbing behavior, it is rejected. This study also shows that problematic smartphone use and academic cyberloafing with phubbing behavior have a relationship of 32.3% where problematic smartphone use and academic cyberloafing contribute directly to the increase in phubbing behavior, the rest is influenced by variables outside of it.
