Participants completed questionnaires about their mobile phone use with follow-up interviews to elicit more in depth information about reasons for using mobile phones. Findings suggest users are at risk of muscular skeletal problems from mobile phone use, radio frequency damage from storage of the phone on the body, particularly when the person is ‘on the move’, and impaired performance from multi-tasking and sleep disturbance.

Se consideran aquí las implicaciones de esto para la salud física, cognitiva y social en usuarios jóvenes. Se presenta un estudio de 168 niños de edades 8-11 y 136 niños de edades 11-14. Los participantes completaron cuestionarios sobre su uso de teléfonos móviles y después fueron entrevistados para obtener más y profunda información acerca de las razones de uso. Los resultados sugieren que los usuarios de teléfonos móviles corren el riesgo de problemas musculares esqueléticos, daño de radiofrecuencia por mantener el teléfono sobre el cuerpo, sobre todo cuando la persona está "sobre la marcha", perjudicar su rendimiento en la multitarea y trastornos del sueño. Dado que uso a largo plazo o excesivo de los teléfonos móviles es un factor desconocido, es necesario tener precaución con respecto a los riesgos asociados con estos hallazgos.application/pdfspaUniversidad Nacional de Colombia (Sede Medellín).
