Abstract

This study explores the relationship between parental phubbing and adolescents’ reactive characteristics to Parents-Self-Centered Drawing (PSCD). The participants included 130 students from middle and high schools in Gyeonggi, Korea. We conducted chi-square tests to explore the differences in PSCD between the higher and lower parental phubbing groups. Results indicated that there were statistically significant differences in the omission of body parts, drawing order, positioning of figures and facial expressions for father figures between the higher and lower father phubbing groups. Second, there were statistically significant differences in the omission of body parts, drawing order for mother figures between the higher and lower mother phubbing groups. Third, we found significant differences in the omission of body parts, drawing order and facial expressions for self-figures between the groups according to father phubbing, while we found significant differences in the omission of body parts, drawing order and positioning of figures for self-figures between the groups according to mother phubbing. The findings of this study suggest that the possibility of PSCD as an indicator of parental phubbing for adolescents.
