Currently, access to cell phones and internet connectivity has become increasingly common in families, especially among young people and teenagers. However, this increase in mobile device use has raised concerns about potential addiction risks, such as nomophobia, as well as the impact of social media on their well-being. Objective: In this context, there is a need to investigate how excessive use of mobile phones and social media affects students of human medicine at the National University of San Antonio Abad del Cusco. Material and method: A descriptive and correlational study was carried out in the student population of the National University of San Antonio Abad del Cusco, with a sample of 146 students. Result: Participants in the study were aged between 19 and 24, with a median age of 21 years (IQR: 20-24 for males and 19-22 for females). The most used social networks were WhatsApp (99.32%), Facebook (89.73%), and YouTube (87.67%). The reliability test showed a Cronbach's alpha of 0.936 for the Social Media Addiction Scale (ARS) and a Cronbach's alpha of 0.955 for the Nomophobia Questionnaire (NMP-Q), indicating high reliability of the instruments used in the study. A low positive correlation was found between cell phone addiction and social media addiction in students of human medicine at the National University of San Antonio Abad del Cusco, with a Spearman's Rho coefficient of 0.271 (p < 0.05) and a post hoc statistical power of 99% (1-β = 0.99). Conclusion: The results indicate a weak positive relationship between cell phone addiction and social media addiction in students of human medicine at the National University of San Antonio Abad del Cusco in 2021.
