Abstract

Phubbing may be associated with students’ academic experiences through two distinct roles: engaging in phone-focused behavior while interacting with others and experiencing being ignored because another person is focused on a phone. This study examined the association of these roles with documented physics grades in two separate groups of high school students. The sample comprised 200 students: 74 classified in the phubbing-perpetrator group and 126 classified in the phubbing-victim group. Pearson correlation and separate simple linear regression analyses were used for the two groups. The reported analyses showed negative associations between perpetrator phubbing and physics grades (r = −0.805, p < 0.001) and between victimization by phubbing and physics grades (r = −0.958, p < 0.001). The corresponding squared correlations are 64.8% and 91.8%, respectively, provided that the reported correlations are verified against the original statistical output. Because the groups were mutually exclusive, the results describe separate subgroup associations and do not establish the independent effects of both roles in a joint model. The findings should be interpreted as associations rather than causal effects.
