Researchers want to understand whether spending a lot of time on your smartphone can affect your posture (how you stand and sit) and your breathing patterns. This is a research study that will follow 300 university students to see if there's a real connection between smartphone addiction and physical health problems like slouching and shallow breathing.
Young people today use smartphones constantly, and doctors have noticed more cases of bad posture and breathing problems in this age group. This study wants to find out if excessive smartphone use is actually causing these physical issues, so that doctors and students can take action early if needed.

You will visit the research site once during the study period (April–September 2026). You'll fill out a short questionnaire about your age, lifestyle, and how much you use your smartphone. Researchers will also ask you questions about your breathing and perform a simple postural assessment (checking how you stand). The whole visit should take less than an hour, and there are no ongoing visits or follow-ups required.
