The aim of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the 15item smartphone addiction proneness scale (SAPS) among a sample of Malaysian adolescents. The gathered data were subjected to exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. There were 922 secondary school students involved in this study. The exploratory factor analysis extracted a threefactor solution for SAPS. These factors were named disturbance of adaptive functions, withdrawal and tolerance. Results from confirmatory factor analysis also indicated that the three-factor structure fits well with the data. The internal consistency of the scale was found to be good. The positive and moderately strong correlation between SAPS and three widely adopted criterion variables (depression, loneliness and boredom proneness) supported the concurrent validity of SAPS. The results of this study showed that the SAPS is a reliable and valid instrument for identifying problematic smartphone use among Malaysian adolescents.

Development of Korean Smartphone Addiction Proneness Scale for Youth
PLoS ONE, 2014
This study developed a Smartphone Addiction Proneness Scale (SAPS) based on the existing internet and cellular phone addiction scales. For the development of this scale, 29 items (1.5 times the final number of items) were initially selected as preliminary items, based on the previous studies on internet/phone addiction as well as the clinical experience of involved experts. The preliminary scale was administered to a nationally representative sample of 795 students in elementary, middle, and high schools across South Korea. Then, final 15 items were selected according to the reliability test results. The final scale consisted of four subdomains: (1) disturbance of adaptive functions, (2) virtual life orientation, (3) withdrawal, and (4) tolerance. The final scale indicated a high reliability with Cronbach's a of .880. Support for the scale's criterion validity has been demonstrated by its relationship to the internet addiction scale, KS-II (r = .49). For the analysis of construct validity, we tested the Structural Equation Model. The results showed the four-factor structure to be valid (NFI = .943, TLI = .902, CFI = .902, RMSEA = .034). Smartphone addiction is gaining a greater spotlight as possibly a new form of addiction along with internet addiction. The SAPS appears to be a reliable and valid diagnostic scale for screening adolescents who may be at risk of smartphone addiction. Further implications and limitations are discussed.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the construct validity and reliability of the Smartphone Addiction Scale-Short Version (SAS-SV) among male and female Iranian student populations. The study used a prospective study design protocol. From January 2019 to April 2019, 388 participants (193 boys and 195 girls, aged 12 to 16 years old) volunteered to complete a SAS-SV questionnaire and sociodemographic-related questions. Factor analysis, t-tests, ANOVA (mean comparison), and correlation analysis were conducted to verify SAS reliability and validity. A confirmatory factor analysis was performed using LISREL 8, and data analysis was completed using SPSS (version 24). Statistical significance was established at p < 0.05. For content validity, ten final questions were selected. The internal consistency and concurrent validity of the SAS was verified with a Cronbach’s alpha score of 0.85, of which the SAS-SV scores revealed a statistically significant difference (p = 0.001), dem...
Validation of smartphone addiction scale-short version among Malaysian undergraduate students
International Journal of Public Health Science (IJPHS), 2023
Smartphone addiction scale-short version or SAS-SV has been consistently found to have one-factor structure and proven as a valid and reliable instrument to measure smartphone addiction. However, it has not been validated among the undergraduate students in Malaysia. With the aim to address such empirical gap, this study has validated its one-factor structure and assessed its reliability and validity among the 680 undergraduate students in Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM). Its content validity was first demonstrated. Subsequently, the findings of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) have supported and confirmed its one-factor model. Furthermore, its convergent validity and reliability were also proven to be satisfactory. Taken together, this study has demonstrated that SAS-SV is an instrument that can reliably and accurately measure or identify smartphone addiction symptoms among the undergraduate students in Malaysia.
Validation of a Malay Version of the Smartphone Addiction Scale among Medical Students in Malaysia.
INTRODUCTION: This study was initiated to determine the psychometric properties of the Smart Phone Addiction Scale (SAS) by translating and validating this scale into the Malay language (SAS-M), which is the main language spoken in Malaysia. This study can distinguish smart phone and internet addiction among multi-ethnic Malaysian medical students. In addition, the reliability and validity of the SAS was also demonstrated. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 228 participants were selected between August 2014 and September 2014 to complete a set of questionnaires, including the SAS and the modified Kimberly Young Internet addiction test (IAT) in the Malay language. RESULTS: There were 99 males and 129 females with ages ranging from 19 to 22 years old (21.7±1.1) included in this study. Descriptive and factor analyses, intra-class coefficients, t-tests and correlation analyses were conducted to verify the reliability and validity of the SAS. Bartlett's test of sphericity was significant (p <0.01), and the Kaiser-Mayer-Olkin measure of sampling adequacy for the SAS-M was 0.92, indicating meritoriously that the factor analysis was appropriate. The internal consistency and concurrent validity of the SAS-M were verified (Cronbach's alpha = 0.94). All of the subscales of the SAS-M, except for positive anticipation, were significantly related to the Malay version of the IAT. CONCLUSIONS: This study developed the first smart phone addiction scale among medical students. This scale was shown to be reliable and valid in the Malay language.
The smartphone addiction scale: development and validation of a short version for adolescents
PloS one, 2013
This study was designed to investigate the revised and short version of the smartphone addiction scale and the proof of its validity in adolescents. In addition, it suggested cutting off the values by gender in order to determine smartphone addiction and elaborate the characteristics of smartphone usage in adolescents. A set of questionnaires were provided to a total of 540 selected participants from April to May of 2013. The participants consisted of 343 boys and 197 girls, and their average age was 14.5 years old. The content validity was performed on a selection of shortened items, while an internal-consistency test was conducted for the verification of its reliability. The concurrent validity was confirmed using SAS, SAPS and KS-scale. Receiver operating characteristics analysis was conducted to suggest cut-off. The 10 final questions were selected using content validity. The internal consistency and concurrent validity of SAS were verified with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.911. ...

right on the tip of the fingers which is more likely to put individuals to excessive smartphone usage Massive number of people are tend to develop dependence to smartphone usage which leads to less interpersonal relationship and decreased real social interactions that result in isolation and loneliness there have been a number of self-reporting questionnaires developed to evaluate smartphone addiction [1,2]. But studies investigating factors related to this phenomenon, particularly among medical students, is lacking. Therefore, the aim of this study is not only to investigate smartphone addiction among medical students in Medan, Indonesia, but also to evaluate factors and sociodemographic characteristics that are related to smartphone addiction particularly during COVID-19 pandemic. Smartphone addiction is defined as persistent and repetitive use of smart phone. Individuals with smartphone addiction poses a compulsive behavior of smartphone usage, loose other interests in daily life, and admit to experience trouble and difficulty in their academics or job due to much less time available as most of the time is occupied by using smartphone. This individual will also experience withdrawal symptoms when being asked to stay away from their phone [3] Excessive usage of smartphone has been linked to several health issues, such as headache, tiredness, tension on the neck, sleeping difficulties, hearing problem, and even decreased concentration that may lead to decreased or impaired academic performance and social participation in real life. This kind of addiction behavior is found to be more prominent among adolescents as this age group is known to have less self-control [4] According to statistical data from Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in Indonesia, number of internet users increased significantly within the past three years which was accounted for as much as 15% in 2014 and reached 51% in 2017.

Psychometric properties of the Turkish version of the smartphone addiction inventory (SPAI
This study aimed at contributing to the literature by adaptation and validation of the Turkish version of the BSmartphone Addiction Inventory^ (SPAI). The psychometric properties of the inventory were evaluated through the data obtained from 330 undergraduate students. A confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was employed to validate the inventory. The results confirmed the four dimensional structure with a Cronbach's α value of .93 for the inventory as a whole, thus suggested a good internal consistency. Further, the CFA results suggested that correlations between the four constructs and their 26 items were valid. Thus, it is important to note that Turkish version of the SPAI adapted in this study is a valid and reliable instrument for measuring smartphone addiction in Turkey.
