Your face does not look away …’
If the face of this famous song of the 1970s is replaced with ‘Smart Phone’, then many people may say, ‘Absolutely right’.
That is, ‘Smart phones do not lose sight.’
If you use a smart phone, you may feel many times that your eyesight also remains on its screen continuously.
This happens to almost everyone. You must have known all such people who get immersed in the phone in such a way that they do not care about anything else.
Smart phone revolution
This madness has been going on for almost a decade and a half. With the introduction of Apple’s iPhone sales, there was a smart phone revolution in a way.
Since then, smart phones have become the best tool to connect, to keep your relationship with the world, to create, to make the creation alive and to learn the world.
Smart phones are present in the hands or pockets of all the people all the time, but many of them sometimes feel that they are using it excessively.
Larry Rozan, professor of psychology at California State University, mentions an incident.
He says, “One day a guest lecturer came to my class and I sat among the students to listen to them. There was a student sitting next to me. He kept plugging in his smartphone during the entire lecture. He either Was replying to text messages or looking at Facebook. ”
How many times a day is the phone used?
Larry Rozan has written a book, ‘The Destined Mind: Ancient Brains in a Hitech World’. The technology and its impact is at the center of his research.
Do you know how many times a day a person looks at his phone? Larry Rozan answered this question based on an experiment done with more than 200 students.
Larry Rozan explains, “We were finding out how often they unlock their phone and how many minutes the phone remains unlocked. We were surprised to learn that a young man unlocked his phone an average of sixty times a day and The phone remains unlocked for about 220 minutes. ”
That is, for more than three and a half hours and during this time the phone is used almost sixty times.
If you are surprised, wait, Larry Rozan says that some other research on this shows that this number is much more. Researchers found people who unlocked their phones 80, 90 or 100 times in a day.
The addiction of sticking to the phone has started affecting relationships.
Phones affect relationships
Larry Rozan says, “Research results show that many single spouses complain that their partners pay more attention to their phones than to them. They have had a hard time getting their partner’s attention.”

Larry Rozan says, “All the ways of communication people want to be connected with them. These include text messages and emails, but most importantly social media. We are studying about boredom and the results tell us that now people Can’t tolerate boredom. ”
There are more questions. For example, how much we are connected to our phone and what happens when the phone is taken from us?
Larry Rozan tells that on the basis of his experiment, when the people of the phone are constantly sticking with the phone, and when they were used for other work, then the sound of every message coming on the phone increased their discomfort and heart rate. Larry Rozan says that this did not happen to everyone, but it is a fact that the number of people who can not live without a phone is very large and when they are separated from the phone, their discomfort will increase. is.

New York University professor Natasha Shul is also among those who believe that they use phones excessively.
Natasha Shul explains, “During an important board meeting or in my department meeting …. I know very well that my colleagues have their eyes on me, but still I keep myself from having to turn my finger on the phone and check email Can’t stop it. ”
What is so special about the design of something that people get addicted to it, Natasha is an expert to explain this matter.
She says, “Talking about the things that attract a person towards them, they include sex, other people of their choice and good food, but now computer technology has also been added to it. It also pulls us towards it and its addiction It takes.
