Abstract

School-age children with a lack of self-control potentially experience a tendency to become dependent on smartphones, which makes them feel anxious when they are
away from their smartphones (Nomophobia). This study aimed to analyze the correlation between self-control and Nomophobia on school-age children at SDN Nguling 1 Pasuruan Regency. Furthermore, this study used a descriptive analitic research design with a cross-sectional approach conducted on seventy-seven samples under the inclusion criteria with a random sampling technique. The questionnaires used in this research were the Self-Control questionnaire and Nomophobia questionnaire. The self-control and Nomophobia correlation analysis used a Chi Square statistic test, with a significance level of 0.05. The result showed that 33.8% (twenty-six respondents) had good self-control and 66.2% (fifty-one respondents) had poor self-control. Fifty-two respondents (67.5%) experienced Nomophobia, while twenty-five respondents (32.5%) did not experience Nomophobia. There was a significant correlation between self-control and Nomophobia (p = 0.023 and OR = 0.319). So, it is necessary to improve the psychological status of school-age children by conducting individual studies. Suggestions from this study are expected, views for parents regarding the supervision of children's smartphone use by being given a time limit of 1 hour per day, so that children can do other activities or play with their peers so as to prevent children from developing nomophobia.
