Objective: Smartphones have today entered into widespread use as a result of the numerous advantageous functions they offer, but they also have negative repercussions. These negative consequences merit investigation in specific populations, including comprehensive examinations of the physical and mental dimensions influenced by smartphones. The study investigates the relationship smartphone addiction and its effects on anxiety, depression and sleep quality in pregnant women. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional studyincluded 85 pregnant women who met the inclusion criteria, and who were administered the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version. Results: The study identified no statistically significant relationship between the smartphone addiction scores of pregnant women and their anxiety, depression and PSQI scores (p>0.05). In contrast, a significant positive weak correlation was observed between smartphone addiction and depression scores among pregnant university graduates (r=0.416, p=0.025, p<0.05). Conclusion: Although the present study did not establish any relationship between smartphone addiction and anxiety, depression and sleep quality in pregnant women, the study findings emphasize the need for further investigations employing alternative study designs and larger sample sizes to validate and expand uponthe results. The study findings deviate from those observed in the general population, indicating a need for prospective studies exploring the causal relationship, specifically in pregnant women. A deeper exploration of smartphone addiction and other behavioral addictions highlighted in literature is required to understand their impact on both the physical and mental health of expectant mothers and the developing fetus.

Amaç: Akıllı telefonlar, sunduğu pek çok avantajlı fonksiyon sayesinde günümüzde yaygın bir kullanıma girmiş olsa da olumsuz yansımaları da bulunmaktadır. Bu olumsuz sonuçların, akıllı telefonların etkilediği fiziksel ve zihinsel boyutların kapsamlı incelemeleri de dâhil olmak üzere belirli popülasyonlarda araştırılması gerekmektedir. Bu çalışmada, gebe kadınlarda akıllı telefon bağımlılığının anksiyete, depresyon ve uyku kalitesi üzerindeki etkisi araştırılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu kesitsel çalışmaya, önceden belirlenen dâhil etme kriterlerini karşılayan ve daha sonra Hastane Anksiyete ve Depresyon Ölçeği, Pittsburgh Uyku Kalitesi İndeksi ve Akıllı Telefon Bağımlılığı Ölçeği-Kısa Versiyonu uygulanan 85 hamile kadın dâhil edilmiştir. Bulgular: Çalışmada, gebelerin akıllı telefon kullanım bağımlılık puanları ile anksiyete, depresyon ve uyku kalitesi puanları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki saptanmadı (p>0,05). Buna karşılık üniversite mezunu gebelerde akıllı telefon bağımlılığı puanları ile depresyon puanları arasında pozitif yönde zayıf anlamlı bir ilişki gözlendi (r=0,416, p=0,025, p<0,05). Sonuç: Her ne kadar mevcut çalışmada, hamile kadınlarda akıllı telefon bağımlılığı ile anksiyete, depresyon ve uyku kalitesi arasında herhangi bir ilişki saptanmamış olsa da, çalışma bulguları, sonuçları doğrulamak ve genişletmek için alternatif çalışma tasarımları ve daha büyük örneklem büyüklükleri ile daha ileri araştırmalara duyulan ihtiyacı vurgulamaktadır. Çalışma bulguları genel popülasyonda gözlemlenenlerden farklılık göstermektedir; bu durum, özellikle hamile kadınlarda nedensel ilişkiyi araştıran prospektif çalışmalara ihtiyaç olduğunu göstermektedir. Akıllı telefon bağımlılığı ve literatürde vurgulanan diğer davranışsal bağımlılıkların, anne adaylarının ve gelişmekte olan fetüsün hem fiziksel hem de zihinsel sağlığı üzerindeki etkilerini anlamak için daha geniş araştırmalar yapılması gerekmektedir.
