Abstract
La investigación examina la influencia del uso excesivo del teléfono móvil en tres dimensiones clave de la vida universitaria: la ansiedad, la percepción de satisfacción personal y el desempeño académico. Se adoptó un enfoque cuantitativo con un diseño no experimental de tipo transversal y un alcance descriptivo-correlacional. Se emplearon instrumentos psicométricos validados, entre ellos la Escala de Dependencia y Adicción al móvil (EDAS), el Inventario de Ansiedad de Beck (BAI), la Escala de Satisfacción con la Vida (SWLS) y la Escala de Rendimiento Académico Universitario (RAU), administrados a una muestra de 370 estudiantes. Los hallazgos revelaron que los estudiantes con mayor dependencia al móvil manifestaron niveles significativamente elevados de ansiedad, con un bajo rendimiento académico y altos niveles de satisfacción personal con la vida. Se concluye que la interacción constante en redes sociales y aplicaciones móviles fomentó estados de ansiedad al generar una necesidad permanente de conexión, lo que afectó el bienestar emocional de los estudiantes. Asimismo, esta distracción tecnológica disminuyó la concentración y la organización académica, repercutiendo de forma negativa en el rendimiento y desempeño universitario. Además, se observó un incremento en la satisfacción personal, que pudo estar relacionado con un sentimiento de desconexión emocional o aislamiento social. Estos resultados subrayan la necesidad de promover estrategias educativas que favorezcan un uso equilibrado de la tecnología, minimizando sus efectos negativos en el contexto académico.
The research examines the influence of excessive smartphone use on three key dimensions of university life: anxiety, perceived personal satisfaction, and academic performance. A quantitative approach was adopted with a non-experimental cross-sectional design and a descriptive-correlational scope. Validated psychometric instruments were used, including the Smartphone Dependence and Addiction Scale (EDAS), the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), and the University Academic Performance Scale (RAU), administered to a sample of 370 students. The findings revealed that students with greater smartphone dependence exhibited significantly higher levels of anxiety, lower academic performance, and higher levels of personal life satisfaction. It was concluded that constant interaction on social media and mobile applications fostered states of anxiety by generating a permanent need for connection, which affected the students' emotional well-being. Likewise, this technological distraction decreased concentration and academic organisation, negatively impacting university performance and achievement. In addition, an increase in personal satisfaction was observed, which could be related to a feeling of emotional disconnection or social isolation. These results underscore the need to promote educational strategies that favour a balanced use of technology, minimising its negative effects in the academic context.
