The purpose of this quantitative correlational study was to determine if and to what extent a relationship exists between phubbing or being phubbed, and relationship satisfaction among males in established romantic relationships in the United States. Although mobile phones and other technological devices serve as productive tools in everyone's life, continuous interruptions from the devices can create problems in relationships. The theoretical foundation and conceptual framework outlining this study were created from a combination of the conceptual model of interference of technology, smartphone addiction, the need to belong theory, and the Relationship Assessment Scale model. The first of two research questions in the current study asked if a statistically significant relationship between phubbing and relationship satisfaction exists among males in established romantic relationships?
