Abstract: Objective To investigate the current situation of college students mobile phone dependence and its influencing factors, and to explore the relationship among mobile phone dependence, empathy and interpersonal confusion. Methods A total of 1 100 students from a comprehensive college in Shandong Province were surveyed with stratified cluster random sampling method. Data on sociodemographic factors, mobile phone dependence, empathy and interpersonal confusion were collected, and then analyzed with Spearman correlation analysis and non-parametric percentile Bootstrap method. Results (1) The overall score of mobile phone dependence was 38.64±10.95. The grade, family atmosphere, sleep time at weekend, and physical exercise frequency were positively correlated with mobile phone dependence. Female, non-only child, rural student, and without boyfriend or girlfriend were independent influencing factors. (2) The mobile phone dependence had a significantly negative correlation with empathy(r=-0.177, P<0.001), but positive correlation with interpersonal confusion(r=0.152, P<0.001). Empathy had a significantly positive correlation with interpersonal confusion(r=-0.361, P<0.001). (3) Empathy mediated the relationship between mobile phone dependence and interpersonal confusion in college students, accounting for 24.87% of the total effect. Conclusion Empathy can mediate the relationship between mobile phone dependence and interpersonal confusion.

Key words: College student, Mobile phone dependence, Empathy, Interpersonal confusion, Mediating effect
