Mobile phone use (MOB)

Mobile phone use (section: lifestyle & environment) was assessed in adult Lifelines participants using a questionnaire (MOB) that originated from the UK Biobank ¹⁾. The MOB consists of 5 questions that were translated from English to Dutch. Note, similar questions have been asked to underage participants as well (Screen use (<18)).
