dc.description.abstractSmartphones have become crucial in people s everyday lives including in the medical field However as people become close to their smartphones this leads easily to overuse Overuse leads to fatigue due to lack of sleep depressive symptoms and social relationship failure and in the case of adolescents it hinders academic achievement Self control solutions are needed and effective tools can be developed through behavioral analysis Therefore the aim of this study was to investigate the determinants of users intentions to use m Health for smartphone overuse interventions A research model was based on TAM and UTAUT which were modified to be applied to the case of smartphone overuse The studied population consisted of 400 randomly selected smartphone users aged from 19 to 60 years in South Korea Structural equation modeling was conducted between variables to test the hypotheses using a 95 confidence interval Perceived ease of use had a very strong direct positive association with perceived usefulness and perceived usefulness had a very strong direct positive association with behavioral intention to use Resistance to change had a direct positive association with behavioral intention to use and lastly social norm had a very strong direct positive association with behavioral intention to use The findings that perceived ease of use influenced perceived usefulness that perceived usefulness influenced behavioral intention to use and social norm influenced behavioral intention to use were in accordance with prior related research Other results that were not consistent with previous research imply that these are unique behavioral findings regarding smartphone overuse This research identifies the critical factors that need to be considered when implementing systems or solutions in the future for tackling the issue of smartphone overuse
