### **11. Conclusions**

In line with King et al. [2], this study purports that nomophobia, or no mobile phone phobia, is thought of a contemporary age phobia introduced to our lives with the speedy proliferation and adoption of smartphone.

The proprioceptive system has an extensive influence at the protection of human fitness. When the proprioception is dysfunctional, the vital anxious device does no longer recognize the ideal fame of tonicity ofthe muscular tissues at rest or in motion, does no longer combine effectively the records that comes from sensory receptors, and has issue in modulating multi-sensory integration, with outcomes in motor behavior and cognitive function. This outcomes in a wide variety of proprioceptive abnormalities which are clinically related and are handled collectively termed as Postural Deficiency Syndrome (PDS). Kids using smart phones for a prolonged period of time lack attention, lack posture and motor control. Smart

phone usage for extended period may change the brain activity, and postural disturbance.
