Abstract:

This study aims to identify the patterns and relationships of smartphone use on adolescent well-being. This study uses qualitative research methods through document analysis. The Document Analysis method in this study uses the Preferred Reporting Items Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) technique. A systematic review of 32 studies was conducted to investigate the patterns and relationships of smartphone use on adolescent well-being. The results of the study found that there are four patterns that have been identified that can affect the well-being of adolescents. The four patterns are health, social, behavioural, and educational aspects. Based on the findings of this study, it is clearly proven that there is a relationship between smartphone use and adolescent well-being. However, negative effects were found to be higher than positive ones. Therefore, the use of smartphones among adolescents should be controlled and given attention by various parties such as parents, teachers, and the government.
