Objective: To explore the mediating effects of self-control level between mindfulness level and
mobile phone addiction in secondary vocational school students. Methods: 660 secondary vocational
school students were surveyed with Mindfulness Attention Perception Scale (MAAS), College Students
Self Control Scale (SCS), and Mobile Phone Addiction Index Scale (MPAI). Results: (1) Correlation
analysis showed that mindfulness level and self-control were significantly and negatively correlated
with mobile phone addiction separately, while mindfulness level and self-control were significantly and
positively correlated; (2) Self-control level played a mediating role between mindfulness level and mobile
phone addiction in secondary vocational school students. Conclusion: Mindfulness not only directly
affected mobile phone addiction in secondary vocational school students, but also indirectly influenced
their mobile phone addiction behavior through the mediating effects of self-control level.
