Abstract
This study examined the relationships between self-control and addictive mobile phone use among nursing students. The data was collected through structured questionnaires from 293 students and analyzed using a t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe's test and Pearson's correlation coefficients on SPSS WIN v 18.0 and AMOS v 18.0. The mean scores of self-control and addictive mobile phone use were $3.42{\pm}0.45$ and $2.69{\pm}0.45$, respectively. A statistically significant negative correlation was observed between self-control and addictive mobile phone use (t=-.447, p<.01). In addition, self-control explained 28% of the addictive mobile phone use. Intervention programs to improve self-control should be developed to prevent addictive mobile phone use for nursing students.
