Summary

This study tested an 8-session mindfulness program in 128 Turkish high school students to see if it could reduce internet and smartphone addiction. The program focused on awareness of breath, body, and stress. Researchers measured changes in mindfulness and addiction levels using standard questionnaires.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, non-drug way to help teens reduce internet and smartphone addiction.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study in one Turkish high school, so results may not apply to other groups. The program requires active participation and may not work for everyone.
