<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Objective</strong><strong>.</strong> Identification and comparative analysis of connections between smartphone addiction and academic motivation, procrastination and self-control in communication among Belarusians and Russians. <strong>Background</strong><strong>.</strong> Smartphone users who become dependent on it suffer from many manifestations of psychological ill-being, so smartphone addiction has become the object of close attention of psychologists in different countries. At the same time, the relevant question is: are its connections with the personal characteristics of users among representatives of different ethnic groups similar or different? <br><strong>Study design.</strong> Based on online testing, connections between smartphone addiction among Russian and Belarusian men and women were identified and analyzed. <br><strong>Participants</strong>. 3379 respondents: 2365 Belarusians (55,39% women) and 1014 Russians (65,87% women). <br><strong>Methods. </strong>The study used questionnaires: smartphone addiction (author V.P. Sheinov), social network addiction (authors V.P. Sheinov, A.S. Devitsyn), factor models of these addictions (authors V.P. Sheinov, A.S. Devitsyn); questionnaire “Academic Motivation Scale” (authors T.O. Gordeeva and others); “Procrastination Scale” by K. Lei, adapted by Ya.I. Varvaricheva; M. Snyder’s test “Self-control in communication”. <br><strong>Results.</strong> Smartphone addiction of Belarusian and Russian men and women and all its factors correlate negatively with internal academic motivation and positively with external academic motivation, procrastination, self-control in communication and addiction to social networks. These correlations between Belarusians and Russians differ only in the closeness of connections; they indicate that smartphone addiction is negatively related to internal motivation for learning, openness and directness of contacts. <br><strong>Main conclusions.</strong> Among Belarusians and Russians: 1) were found similarities of the correlation between smartphone addiction and academic motivation, procrastination, self-control in communication and addiction to social networks; 2) a negative relationship between smartphone addiction and internal motivation to study and quality of communication was revealed.</p> |
