This Is Why We Can't Put Down Our Phones
Psychology Today
Perhaps you've temporarily misplaced your cell phone and anxiously retraced your steps to try to find it. Or perhaps you never let go of your phone—it's?always?in your hand, your pocket, or your bag, ready to be answered or consulted?at a moment's notice[1].When?your battery life runs down?at the end of the day, you feel that yours is running low as well. New research shows that there's a psychological reason for?such?extreme phone dependence: According to?the?attachment?theory, for some of us, our?phone serves the same function as?the teddy bear we?clung[2]?to?in?childhood.
Attachment theory proposes that?our early life experiences with the parents responsible for our well-being, are at the root of our connections to the adults with whom we form close relationships. Importantly, attachment in early life can extend to?inanimate[3] objects. Although phones are often?castigated?for their addictive potential, scientists cite evidence that?supports?the idea that “healthy, normal adults also report significant emotional attachment to special objects”.
Indeed, cell?phones have become apervasivefeature of our lives: The number of cell phone subscriptions exceeds the total population of the planet. The average amount of mobile or smartphone use in the U.S. is 3.3 hours per day. People also like to be near their phones. Nearly as many people report being distressed when they're separated from their phone.
Phones have distinct advantages. They can be kept by your side and they?provide a social connection to?the people you care about. Even if you're not talking to your friends, lover, or family, you can keep their photos close by, read their messages, and follow them on social media. You can track them in real time but also look back on memorable moments together. These channels help?you?“feel less alone”.
