Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze the smart phone usage experience structure for college students. The phenomenology approach was used by conducting 4 times in-depth interviews with the 7 college students age between 20~23. Collected Data was analyzed by Giorgi's phenomenological method. There were 4 general structure descriptions and 28 themes. General structure descriptions were 'Dependence on smart phone', 'Phenomenon of smart phone usage', 'Results of smart phone usage' and 'Relationship between stress and smart phone'. Themes consisted of 'Ambivalence', 'Positive feelings for smart phones', 'Separation anxiety', 'Negative feelings for smart phones'. 'Dependent feelings for smart phones', 'A sense of unity with smart phones', 'Helpful for my life', 'Deeply involved with my life', 'Useful tool in my life', 'Study, communication, relaxation and health care', 'Maintain personal relationship', 'The most important thing in my life', 'Shallow relationship stress', 'Interference with personal relationship', 'Forming a negative relationship', 'Invasion of privacy', 'Forming a Incorrect relationship', 'Unwanted participation', 'No effort to improve relationship', 'Poor concentration', 'Interference with academic study', 'Study assistance', 'Limited help for study in depth', 'Shelter from the stress', 'Amplification of the stress', 'Obsessive focus', 'Feel separation for the reality' and 'Waste of time'. Smart phone usage make college students dependent on smart phones and had negative influence on both personal relationship and academic results. Usage of smart phone also amplified stress. Therefore we need fundamental principles on usage of smart phone and propose to build cultural etiquette that provides reasonable way to use smartphone.

본 연구는 20세에서 23세 사이의 대학생 7명을 대상으로 스마트폰 사용에 대한 경험 구조를 분석하고자 총 4회에 걸친 인터뷰를 실시하였다. Giorgi의 현상학적방법을 이용하여 분석한 결과 4개의 일반적 구조문장과 28개의 주제로 작성할 수 있었다. 일반적 구조문장은 스마트폰 사용의존, 스마트폰 사용현상, 스마트폰 사용결과, 스트레스와 스마트폰과의 관계이었고 주제는 양가감정, 스마트폰에 대한 긍정적 감정, 분리불안, 스마트폰에 대한 부정적 감정, 스마트폰에 의존되어 있는 감정, 스마트폰과의 일체감, 생활의 보조 역할, 깊게 삶에 관여함, 일상생활에 유용함, 학습 소통 휴식과 건강관리, 인간관계 유지, 가장 중요한 존재, 깊이가 얕은 관계의 속상함, 대인관계 방해, 부정적인 대인관계 형성, 사적인 부분 침해, 부정확한 인맥 구축, 어쩔 수 없이 참여, 개선하지 않으려는 인간관계, 집중력 저하, 학업에 방해, 학업에 도움, 심층학습 성취에는 한계적 도움, 스트레스 도피 공간, 스트레스 증폭, 강박적 집중, 괴리감, 시간낭비이었다. 결론적으로, 현재 대학생에게 스마트폰의 사용은 스마트폰에 의존하게 되었고, 인간관계와 학업에 있어서 부정적인 영향을 미치고 있었으며, 스트레스를 증폭시켰다. 이에 따라 스마트폰 사용의 원칙이 필요하고, 합리적인 스마트폰 사용을 위한 문화 구축을 제언한다.
