Abstract

The advent of new touch technologies and the wide spread of smart mobile phones made humans embrace technology more and depend on it extensively in their lives. With new communication technologies and smart phones the world really became a small village. Although these technologies provided many positive features, we cannot neglect the negative influences inherited in these technologies. One of the major negative sides of smart phones is their side effects on human health. This paper will address this issue by exploring the exiting literature related to the negative side of smart phones on human health and behavior by investigating the literature related to three major dimensions: health, addiction and behavior. The third section will describe the research method used. The fourth section will discuss the analysis side followed by a section on the conclusions and future work.
