Review of Related Literature

Computers in Human Behavior according to an Andrew Lepp (2009), while

functional differences between todays cellphones are almost always on hand and allow
users to connect with an array of services and networks at almost any time and any
place. The pew Center’s Internet and American Life Project suggests that college
students are the most rapid adopters of cellphone technology and research is emerging
which suggests high frequency cellphone use may be influencing their health and
behavior. Thus, we investigated the relationships between total cellphone use (N = 496)
and texting (N= 490) on Satisfaction with life (SWL) in a large sample of college
students. It was hypothesized

that the relationships would be mediated by Academic Performance and anxiety.
