본 연구는 간호학과 학생의 스마트폰 이용 동기와 중독, 자기 통제력의 관계를 파악하여 중독을 예방할 수 있는 기초자료를 마련하고자 2013년 6월 10-18일까지 자료를 수집, 분석하였다. 여학생이 남학생보다, 성적 하위학생이 상위 학생보다 이용 동기와 중독(일상생활장애, 가상세계지향, 금단, 내성)에 높은 점수를 나타내었고 자기 통제는 낮은 점수를 나타내었다. 스마트폰의 고위험 사용자군이 오락/여가, 서비스, 기능성의 이용 동기에 높은 점수를 나타내었고 자기 통제력(특히 즉각적 만족)은 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 성적과 중독 하위요인 중 내성, 금단, 일상생활장애, 가상계지향과 학년 특성이 중독의 88.2%를 설명하였고 이용 동기의 하위요인 중 오락/여가와 과시/유행이 중독의 12.9%를 설명하였다. 결론적으로 스마트폰 이용 동기(특히 오락/여가와 과시/유행)는 중독과 정적 상관관계를, 중독은 자기 통제력과 부적 상관관계를 나타내었다. 따라서 스마트폰의 긍정적이고 바람직한 이용을 유도하고, 자기 통제력을 향상시킬 수 있는 방안을 강구하여 중독에 이르는 것을 예방해야 할 것이다.
