Objetivo: Este estudo tem como objetivo explorar a relação entre o tempo de tela medido objetivamente e a depressão. Além disso, busca determinar se o apoio social media a relação entre depressão e tempo de tela medido objetivamente. Métodos: Este estudo transversal incluiu uma amostra de 121 estudantes universitários internacionais. O tempo de tela foi mensurado por meio dos registros obtidos nos telefones dos participantes. Os dados antropométricos básicos foram coletados com o uso de estadiômetro e análise de bioimpedância. A depressão foi avaliada pela Escala de Depressão de Zung, e o apoio social pela Interpersonal Support Evaluation List. A análise dos dados incluiu correlações e testes t, seguida de uma análise de mediação por caminhos. Resultados: Os dados indicam que não há associação direta entre depressão e tempo de tela, uma vez que não foi encontrada correlação entre essas variáveis (r(85) = .03, p > .05), nem diferenças significativas no tempo de tela entre os grupos com e sem depressão (t(85) = –.19, p = 0.85). Contudo, uma associação indireta foi identificada por meio de um modelo de mediação no qual o apoio social atuou como mediador (p < .05). Conclusão: O tempo de tela, isoladamente, não é um indicador de depressão; entretanto, o apoio social pode mediar significativamente essa relação. Consequentemente, reduzir o tempo de tela não necessariamente leva a uma diminuição dos sintomas depressivos, pois fatores mais sutis podem influenciar essa associação. Portanto, a relação entre o uso do telefone e a depressão é complexa e requer investigações adicionais com métodos mais avançados.contextualizadas.
