Results: The rate of smartphone overdependency was high at 35.3%. Differences in smartphone overdependency among students based on needs levels were sexual curiosity (t=2.91 p=.005), interpersonal needs (t=2.28 p=.024), and needs for recognition (t=2.67 p=.008). Factors affecting smartphone overdependency were gender (OR=2.54, 95% CI=1.08~5.99) and sexual curiosity (OR=1.48, 95% CI=1.13~1.94).
