An 8-Week Group Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Intervention for Mobile Dependence
Open accessAbstract
In China, college students with mobile phone dependence are more and more common, which is accompanied by many psychological problems. We developed a group cognitive therapy (CBT) program for mobile phone dependence and studied its effects in Chinese college students. Forty-two Chinese college students, whose scores in the revised Chinese Test of Mobile Phone Dependence (C-TMD) were 37 to 42 points, were assigned to two conditions at a random: the group CBT intervention and the wait-list control condition. The result showed that the CBT group demonstrated significantly more decrease in measures of the C-TMD and Simplified Symptom Checklist (SSCL) than the wait-list controls at post-test and two-month follow-up.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
