你是否已經患有'無手機恐懼症'?

Are you addicted to your smartphone?

你對你的手機上癮嗎

A new study from Iowa State University has identified some of the central aspects of nomophobia - that's "no mobile phone" phobia.

愛荷華州立大學最近總結出"無手機恐懼症"的主要特點。

The four basic symptoms of nomophobia are: not being able to communicate, losing connectedness, not being able to access information and giving up convenience.

"無手機恐懼症"的四個主要擔憂是：不能交流、與世界失去聯繫、不能獲取資訊以及不能享用智能手機帶來的便利。

"iPhones are capable of becoming an extension of our selves such that when separated, we experience a lessening of 'self' and a negative physiological state," Russell Clayton, a doctoral candidate and the study's lead author, said in a statement.

本次研究的主要負責人、在讀博士羅素·克萊頓在聲明中表示："我們已經把iPhone視爲身體的延伸，一旦與它分開，我們會覺得'自我'少了一部分，感到生理不適。"
