Investigation of graduate students’ dependence on mobile phone Abstract With the increase of the rate of mobile phone usage in college, the graduate students are in great trouble of mobile phone dependence. This dependence is common in graduate students and it is affecting their study and life seriously. Then we conducted an investigation on graduate students’ dependence on mobile phone. This article presents the result of our investigation and analyzes the data, and we draw a conclusion that graduate students have a serious dependence on mobile phone. Then we try to find the reason why they fall into this dependence, and give some advice to guide graduate students to use mobile phone correctly. Key words: mobile phone, the graduate students, dependence. Introduction: With the improvement of the living standard, the development of our society, and the progress of science and technology, mobile phone is becoming more and more popular. Almost every college student has a mobile phone, they communicating with friends, looking through news, listening to music with it. The function of the mobile phone is becoming more and more advanced, and students in college almost can’t live without it. The graduate students are no exception. The mobile phone has brought graduate students a lot of convenience and happiness, but some students use mobile phone for hours without rest or stay up too late which damage their eyes seriously. The wrong way of using mobile phone has a very bad effect on graduate students’ physical and mental health.  The purpose of the investigation is to get the hang of how graduates use mobile phone and their dependence on it, and find the problem of using mobile phone. By analyzing the result of our investigation, we can figure out the reason of these problems considering their lifestyle in college. Then in order to guide the graduates to use their mobile phone correctly, we give some advice. The significance of the investigation lies in that graduate students can attach importance to the right way of using mobile phone, and live a healthy life. 1.Methodology The authors of this paper used the form of the questionnaire. In this questionnaire, we designed seventeen questions, and some of which  involved one aspect of how mobile phone affects people surveyed. From these questions, we can study how respondents’ lifestyle are affected by smart phones and what do they think of being addicted. We uploaded our questionnaire onto one website ‘SOJUMP’ and invited a number of 62 individuals to participate in the survey , most of whom are graduate students at Hohai University. Although the number of people surveyed is small, they are from different departments and different grades and to some extent, the survey can reveal some particular phenomena and stand for some point of view. If time permits, we will design more questions and engage more people in the investigation. After stating these questionnaires, we made charts with Excel so that our results looked more clearly and vividly. 2.Findings or Results Among 62 graduate students surveyed, only 9 are females. However, it meets the ratio of girl to boy in Hohai University, especially in some departments. As we can see in the charts below, nearly 95% of people surveyed spend less than 100 yuan a month on their cellphone. This expense is not a big burden since most graduate students could afford it. And almost 45% of users’ data usage is below 500M, and there is no huge change between different ranges. When it comes to 4 functions that users like best, call/message and social software like QQ or WeChat come first and second, accounting for 86% and 84% respectively. The former is the basic function of phone and the latter is very popular among young people. In addition, the left from the greatest to the least are browsing for news, entertainment(watching movies and listening to music) and so on, which accounts for the reason why nearly 55% use more than 500M. Though smart phone is very powerful useful, does it affect our life harmfully? From the statistic, it can be seen that nearly 97% of the people surveyed spend over one hour a day using cellphones, and 27% spend over four hours. It is shocking that most graduate students surveyed waste so much time watching cellphones. When in class, 56% must or often play mobile phones instead of learning conscientiously, only 6% seldom or never play. And nearly 80% find it unbearable or accept it reluctantly when they forget their cellphones. It can be concluded from above that most people surveyed are addicted to mobile phones, and we are wasting our youth. Is it over yet? Absolutely No! Almost 93% respondents leave cellphones on the bedside when sleeping, which means even when we are sleeping we are exposed to mobile phone radiation. Once going out, 84% will check cautiously whether they have taken cellphones with them. If unluckily they leave cellphones at home or somewhere unluckily , 47% are very anxious and wish to get it back, while another 48% feel a bit worried. Now we are at a gathering of old friends, or classmates, where we can communicate with others happily and share our happiness and sadness, and we are very sorry to see that nearly 20% of the people surveyed keep or cannot help playing smart phones. What is worse, 78% show understanding as they are always doing the same thing and only 22% feel angry and lonely. Statistics reveal such a phenomenon in which most people recognize playing mobile phone as an important activity to which interpersonal communication and relationship should give way. We sadly find that we are connected to the whole world through a small device except for those just around us.
