Nomophobic


the fear of being out of mobile phone contact. the term is an abbreviation for “no-mobile-phone phobia”. it causes physical side effects such as panic attack, shortness of breath, dizziness, trembling, sweating, accelerated heart rate, chest pain and nausea.

securenvoy’s study found that 70% of female respondents fear losing their phones, compared with 61% of male respondents. however, men are more likely to have two phones than women, which may account for that discrepancy.

people 18-24 tend to be the most nomophobic (77%), followed by people aged 25-34 (68%). the third most nomophobic group is 55 and older.
