Item type:Ítem, Phubbing y Satisfacción en la Relación de Parejas Jóvenes Universitarias(Universidad Técnica de Ambato, Facultad de Jurisprudencia y Ciencias Sociales, Carrera de Trabajo Social, 2025-07-30) ;Guano Quilumba, Victoria TatianaChiliquinga Véjar, Lorena Del CarmenThe present study aims to analyze the relationship between phubbing and relationship satisfaction among young university students in the city of Ambato. Phubbing, a term that combines the words phone and snubbing, describes the practice of ignoring one's partner by paying attention to the cell phone, a behavior that has become relevant in the dynamics of current interpersonal relationships. Partner satisfaction, on the other hand, refers to the individual perception of acceptance, affection, quality of interaction and fulfillment of common objectives. The methodological approach was quantitative, allowing an objective measurement of the presence of phubbing and its impact on happiness within the relationship. Validated instruments such as the Phubbing scale and the Relationship Appraisal Scale (RAS) were applied under a bibliographic and field research design. The sample consisted of 312 couples, selected from a population of 23,136 university students. The results indicate that 44.11% of the participants show moderate use of the cell phone, 30.63% show high levels of dependence, while 25.26% maintain controlled use. At a general level, high levels of satisfaction in couple relationships are observed; however, correlation analyses reveal that the higher the frequency of phubbing, the lower the perceived satisfaction, mainly affecting communication, trust and emotional connection. Of note is the significant inverse correlation with the factor “regret” (ρ = -0.95; p = 0.05), suggesting negative effects on the quality of the relationship. In conclusion, phubbing represents a risk factor that can deteriorate the quality of couple relationships in young university students, making it necessary to raise awareness about the responsible use of technology in affective contexts.
