Abstract

This paper’s major goals are to check the key causes of teen phone addiction and investigate techniques for identifying and avoiding addictive behaviours. Seven studies were analyzed to detect the development of addiction among adolescents and its potential influencing factors. This report provides a comprehensive assessment of the impact of family factors, friends, and self-regulation ability on adolescents’ phone addiction. According to the findings, adolescent cell phone addiction is positively correlated with a negative family environment. while positive relationships and self-control can reduce the likelihood of addiction. The paper suggests that educators and parents should proactively assist teenagers in developing emotional regulation skills or seek guidance from psychological professionals to address the underlying causes of phone addiction. Limitations of the current research include the lack of specific case analyses and the limited diversity of the sample backgrounds, which may limit the generalizability of the findings to all adolescents. Further research is necessary to strengthen the conclusions.
