It describes the act of ignoring people in social situations by focusing on a smartphone instead. This behavior can make others feel unimportant or excluded. In this way, phubbing can harm relationships by reducing face-to-face communication and emotional connection Studies suggest that phubbing is linked to lower relationship satisfaction and increased feelings of loneliness. It can also negatively impact mental health by worsening social isolation(隔离) and reducing meaningful interactions. Study authors Tomer Schmidt-Barad and Lily Chernyak-Hai sought to explore the relationships between phubbing, empathy(同理心), and prosociality(亲社会 性). They were also interested in whether self-control might play a role in the connection between phubbing and prosoeiality The results of the first study showed that individuals more easily affected by phuhbing teaded to have slightly lower self-control and prosocial intentions. However, phubbing was not associated with empathy. The researchers tested a statistical model suggesting that phubbing leads to lower self-control, which, in turn, leads to lowcr cmpathy. According to this model, lower empathy results in reduced prosociality. The findings supported the possibility of such a relationship between these psychological characteristics. The rescarchers also tested a statistical model proposing that engaging in phubbing leads to reduced cmpathy, which, in turn. results in less prosociality. which confirmed this relationship. 'Our results offer important evidence that phubbing has a negative impact on prosociality. with empathy consistently influencing its effect. Our results also suggest a difference in terms of phubbing as a habit compared to temporary phubbing, suggesting that the former predicts problems in sef eentrol, while the latter does not." the study authors concluded. The study eontributes to the scientific understanding of the psychological essences of phubbing However, tt is important to note that neither of the two studies was based en ebservatiers ef actua phubbing behaviors.
