About this study
Official title: Effects of Exercise and Mindfulness-Based Intervention on Emotion Regulation and Inhibitory Control of Smartphone Addiction Among Female University Students
Mobile-based technology is advancing at an unprecedented rate, and in the past decade, smartphone use has become common among today's university students, who have mental health. A lot of attention has been paid in the media to the existence of "smartphone addiction" or problematic smartphone use(Sohn et al., 2019).Overuse of smartphones can cause health problems(Adams \& Kisler, 2013; Demirci et al., 2015).
As an interdisciplinary subject, this study aimed at university students' smartphone addiction behavior research, understand the information era of college students' way of behavior patterns, exercise and psychological intervention strategy is put forward, to evaluate exercise and MBI intervention,and reduction of university students' smartphone addiction.
Read the detailed description
This study was divided into two groups, the exercise and mindfulness-based intervention group, and the control group. This study evaluates the effect of 8-week exercise and MBI intervention on the capacity of emotional regulation measured by physiological and psychological state and inhibitory control of smartphone addiction in female university students. The sample was Chinese female university students aged 18-23 years with infrequent exercise for smartphone addiction.
According to the literature review, the frequency of brisk walking training in this experiment was scheduled for two times/week, with a total training duration of 8 weeks. Each training session was changed within two weeks. It ranged from 60 minutes in the first and second week to 90 minutes in the eighth week of the seventh week. Brisk walking was trained using maximum heart rate to control the intensity and measured using the Borg CR10 scale after training. All exercise techniques were taught before intervention.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Mobile Phone Addiction Index (MPAI; Assessing Change)
Smartphone addiction was assessed using the Mobile Phone Addiction Index (MPAI) (Leung, L. ,2008), which was translated into Chinese (Huang H,et,al.,2014) and is used widely in Chinese contexts (Zhao Y, 2019 \& Chen Y,et,al.,2019). The MPAI contains 17 items assessing four domains: inability to control craving, feeling anxious and lost, withdrawal/escape, and productivity loss. Each item is responded to from 1 ("not at all") to 5 ("always"). Final scores were summed and higher total scores reflect higher levels of smartphone addiction. The Cronbach's alpha of the MPAI was 0.86 in the present study.
Measured: Assessments will be conducted at baseline (after the screening), 4th week (1month) after the baseline, 8th week (2rd month)
Smartphone behavior (Time spent on smartphone use; Assessing Change)
Subjects (respondents) will answer through six relevant time categories. "Less than 10 minutes", "11-60 minutes", "1-2 hours", "3-4 hours", "5-6 hours", or "more than 6 hours". For the type of functionality of the smartphone software used, the subjects (respondents) used a 5-point Likert scale (0 = never, 1 = rarely, 2 = sometimes, 3 = usually, 4 = always).
Measured: Assessments will be conducted at baseline (after the screening), 4th week (1month) after the baseline, 8th week (2rd month)
Heart rate (HR; Assessing Change from physiological state)
Heart rate is used to measure exercise intensity, and Emotion regulation involves emotional responses (physiological components) such as heart rate (HR).
Measured: Assessments will be conducted at baseline (after the screening), 4th week (1month) after the baseline, 8th week (2rd month)
Galvanic skin response (GSR; Assessing Change of physiological state)
Emotion regulation involves emotional responses (physiological components) such as galvanic skin response (GSR)(Bosse, 2017).
Measured: Assessments will be conducted at baseline (after the screening), 4th week (1month) after the baseline, 8th week (2rd month)
Electroencephalography (EEG; Assessing Change of physiological state)
Emotion regulation involves emotional responses (physiological components) such as electroencephalography (EEG).
Measured: Assessments will be conducted at baseline (after the screening), 4th week (1month) after the baseline, 8th week (2rd month)
Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ; Assessing Change)
The Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ; Gross \& John, 2003)
Measured: Assessments will be conducted at baseline (after the screening), 4th week (1month) after the baseline, 8th week (2rd month)
Positive and negative emotion scores (Assessing Change)
Positive and negative emotion scores measured at different time points
Measured: Assessments will be conducted at baseline (after the screening), 4th week (1month) after the baseline, 8th week (2rd month)
Response Inhibition (Assessing Change of Inhibitory control)
The measured variables were reaction time (RT) and accuracy.
Measured: Assessments will be conducted at baseline (after the screening), 4th week (1month) after the baseline, 8th week (2rd month)
Craving (Assessing Change)
Craving for smartphones (modified desire for drinking questionnaire: Love, James,
\& Willner, 1998)
Measured: Assessments will be conducted at baseline (after the screening), 4th week (1month) after the baseline, 8th week (2rd month)
Secondary outcomes (2)
Psychological Symptoms (Assessing Change)
Psychological symptom using the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21). to measure the emotional states (Oei et al., 2013) . This questionnaire is a short version of a self-report instrument (21 items) which measures depression, anxiety and tension/stress (negative emotional states).
Measured: Assessments will be conducted at baseline (after the screening), 4th week (1month) after the baseline, 8th week (2rd month)
Loneliness (Assessing Change)
used the Chinese version of the ULS-8 loneliness scale, which was translated by Zhou et al. for participation in China.
Measured: Assessments will be conducted at baseline (after the screening), 4th week (1month) after the baseline, 8th week (2rd month)
