assc-2166	Hakoyama, Ph.D., Mikiyasu	Young Adults’ Cellphone Dependence, Stress, Depression and Self-Esteem	2019	18	.pdf	application/pdf	7380	390	58	Considering the significant associations between cellphone dependence and psychosocial states, especially the negative effects of cellphone dependence on perceived stress, depression and self-esteem, cellphone use needs to be examined and monitored regularly. While the current study examines cross-sectional data, based on both theoretical perspectives and empirical findings that indicate constant conjunction (Greenstein, 2013) along with the use of SEM, it was hypothesized that both age of initial cellphone ownership (Geser, 2006), ownership history (Hakoyama & Hakoyama, 2011), cellphone usage and fear of social isolation (Roberts et al., 2014) predict cellphone dependence; cellphone dependence, mediated by perceived stress and depressive state, in turn, predicts self-esteem; higher cellphone dependence leads to increased stress (van Deursen et al., 2015) and depressive state (Sanchez-Martinez & Otero, 2009), resulting in lower self-esteem (Bianchi & Phillips, 2005; Zulkefly & Baharudin, 2009).	cache/assc-2166.pdf	txt/assc-2166.txt
