Data on the Model of Loneliness and Smartphone Use Frequency as a Mediator of Self-Control, Emotion Regulation, and Spiritual Meaningfulness in Nomophobia

The data collection was conducted in June-July 2022, with 355 participants completing the scales provided through offline paper-pencil surveys in the classroom. The research data was collected from three cities, namely Palembang, Jambi, and Yogyakarta, and consisted of junior high school and high school students, as well as university students. The university student participants were recruited from Ahmad Dahlan University, Jambi University, and Charitas Musi Catholic University.  The participants completed the Nomophobia NMP-Q scale (Yildirim & Correia, 2015), the R-UCLA Loneliness Scale (Russell et al., 1980), self-control (Tangney, Baumeister & Boone, 2004), The Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS; Gratz & Roemer, 2004), and Spiritual Meaningfulness which was developed based on the theory of Pargament (2007). All the questionnaires for data collection were in the Indonesian version.
