본 연구는 대학생의 휴대폰 과의존에 따른 삶의 질에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 파악하고자 하였다. 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위해 C도의 4년제 대학에 다니고 있는 남·여학생들을 348명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구방법으로 SPSS 19.0과 AMOS 18.0의 구조방정식모형을 사용하여 자료분석 등을 실시하였다. 분석결과 남학생이 여학생에 비해 휴대폰 과의존이 높게 나타났고, 남학생의 경우 게임, 동영상, 검색 등 순으로 이용을 많이 하는 것으로 나타났다. 학업성적 만족도는 남·여학생 모두 교양보다는 전공에서 높게 나타났으며, 휴대폰 과의존은 학업성적 만족도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 대학생의 휴대폰 과의존은 학업성적 만족도에 유의미한 영향을 미치고 학업성적 만족도는 삶의 만족도에도 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 성인기에 접어든 대학생들은 기존 청소년기의 습관이 그대로 남아있어 휴대폰 과의존으로 인한 대학생활에 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다.
