스마트폰 사용패턴과 학업성취도간 영향 분석: 중･고등학생을 중심으로

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the relationship between academic achievement of middle/high school students and their smartphone use pattern in terms of gender and grade differences. An internet survey was conducted and descriptive statistical analyses were applied. The main findings of the study are as follows. First, about thirty percent of the respondents spent more than three hours a day in using smartphones. Female students and high school students spent more time on smartphones compared to their male and middle school counterparts. Second, male middle school students tended to use smartphones to play internet games. Third, using smartphones had an inverse relationship with academic achievement, and female high school students tended to show a negative perception toward using smartphones.
