The Effect of Aerobic Exercise on Nomophobia and Anxiety

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
It was aimed to examine the effect of aerobic exercise on nomophobia and anxiety in nomophobic university students.

Detailed Description
-----------------
It was aimed to examine the effect of aerobic exercise on nomophobia and anxiety in nomophobic university students. There is no study in the literature examining the relationship between aerobic exercise and nomophobia in young people. Since our study will be the first to investigate the subject, we foresee that it is scientifically important and will shed light on future studies. In addition, national or international publications are planned after the study is completed.

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Change from baseline in nomophobia score at four weeks | The Nomophobia scale, a 7-point Likert scale consisting of 20 questions developed by Yildirim & Correia, was used to evaluate the nomophobia levels of the participants.Those with a total scores less than 20 did not have nomophobia, 21-59 had mild,60-99 had modarate,and 100-140 had extreme nomophobia | baseline and 4 weeks | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Change from baseline in anxiety score at four weeks | The Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), created by Aaron T. Beck and other colleagues, is a 21-question multiple-choice self-report inventory that is used for measuring the severity of anxiety in adolescents and adults ages 17 and older.A maximum of 63 points can be obtained from the scale.Less than 21 points indicates mild anxiety, 22-35 points moderate and above 36 points severe anxiety. | baseline and 4 weeks |
