Abstract Objective To explore relations among mobile phone addiction, sleep quality, and rumination thinking in college students. Methods Two hundred and sixty-two college students were selected to complete the mobile phone addiction index (MPAI), Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI), and rumination response scale (RRS). Data were analysed. Results The detection rates of mobile phone addiction and sleep problems were 25.58% and 27.91%, and the level of ruminant thinking was high. Female scores were significantly higher than those of males in MPAI scores and the dimensions of inefficiency and avoidance (P<0.01). However, gender differences were not significant in PSQI and RRS scores (P>0.05). MPAI scores were positively correlated with PQSI scores and the dimensions of sleep quality, sleep time, sleep disorders, and daytime dysfunction. RRS scores were positively correlated with MPAI scores and all dimensions, as well as PSQI scores and the dimensions of sleep quality, sleep efficiency, sleep disorder, hypnotic drugs, and daytime dysfunction. Mobile phone addiction had a significantly predictive effect on sleep, and rumination played a partial mediating role in this process. Conclusion Rumination thinking has a partial mediating effect on the relation between mobile phone addiction and sleep quality.
