The Relationship Between Smartphones Screen Time and Executive Functioning among Undergraduate Students

Abstract

The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between smartphone screen time and executive functioning among undergraduate students in Saudi Arabia. The research found that there is no significant relationship between the two variables. However, it found that there is a significant relationship between the scores of the executive skills questionnaire and the strengths and difficulties questionnaire, which may imply that there is a significant relationship between undergraduate students' executive functions and their overall emotional and behavioral status.
