Evaluando la adicción a los teléfonos inteligentes entre estudiantes universitarios con el cuestionario SAS-SV: Un acercamiento desde el análisis de redes.
Resumen
En este trabajo se analizó la estructura del cuestionario SAS-SV (Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version) a través de las respuestas de 400 estudiantes universitarios mexicanos de la Licenciatura en Comercio Exterior. Se condujo un análisis de redes para identificar los síntomas centrales, sus interrelaciones y conglomerados. Los resultados mostraron una red densa donde los ítems más centrales, según múltiples indicadores (Fuerza, Influencia Esperada, Intermediación), fueron Q5 ("Me siento impaciente e inquieto cuando no tengo mi smartphone") y Q6 (“Tengo mi smartphone en mente incluso cuando no lo uso”). Estos hallazgos sugieren que la impaciencia, inquietud y el pensamiento recurrente son componentes relevantes que conectan diferentes facetas de la adicción al smartphone en esta población.
