| Abstract: | Phubbing refers to the act of ignoring someone in a social environment by focusing on a smartphone rather than engaging in conversation. This behavior can negatively influence the quality of interpersonal relationships, relationship satisfaction, and feelings of well-being. The purpose of this study was to examine the mediating role of stress and online vigilance in the relationship between impulsivity and phubbing. The research data were obtained from 403 university students using the scales of self-control, perceived stress, online vigilance and phubbing. All the analyses were conducted using JASP, a program based on R software. The results of the study revealed that impulsivity predicts phubbing and that three indirect pathways existed: separate mediated effect of stress, separate mediated effect of online vigilance, and serial mediated effect of stress and online vigilance. This research provides valuable insights into the psychological structures associated with phubbing, as well as the potential mediating variables that may explain these relationships. |
