As for the point of "How much does it mean" smartphone dependence "is still being debated, smartphone dependence is a diagnosis of mental disorders and statistical manual"DSM-5"It is not also classified. However, according to Associate Professor Daniel J. Krueger who studies evolutionary psychology at the University of Michigan, whether the illusionary vibration syndrome occurs frequently becomes one criterion to judge whether it is in a smartphone dependent state.

First of all, "dependence" refers to a state in which people are obsessed with the desire for stimulation as a reward. And as a feature that shows that it depends, you become overly sensitive about matters related to your desires you desire. For example, people who rely on cigarettes see the honeycomb's "honey looks like a bunch of cigarettes", and so on, we see something related to dependent objects.

The fact that "smartphones that are not reacting really feel like trembling or ringing" is the same as this, and those who are seeking notifications and messages from the SNS world become overly sensitive to smartphones It is thought that it is a living reaction.

Therefore, research teams such as Associate Professors Kruger carried out online questionnaires for university students. The "2005"(PDF file)Use of problematic mobile phone"To rank students' smartphone dependence, and at the same time examined how frequently they experience experiences of fantasy vibrations and notifications. Then, it is said that the frequency of experiencing fantasy vibrations was higher when students with higher smartphone dependency who use smartphones to improve their feelings, when they are not using smartphones or want to use smartphones Thing.

Many companies that manufacture smart phones believe that fantasy vibration syndrome is not a technology issue but a human error. In addition, generations who were closely related to electronic equipment since childhood may think that illusion oscillation is a small problem. However, fantasy vibration shows how we rely on smartphones and shows how smartphones are affecting our social life, Associate Professor Kruger said.
