Abstract
The continuous increase in the use of mobile communication devices, as well as the escalating dependence of people on them, sets the stage for various psychological and physical effects on humans. Conducting comprehensive and in-depth studies on the effects caused by excessive use of mobile devices can be used for the prevention of negative consequences and the improvement of people’s quality of life. This paper examines the thermal effects on adolescents caused by prolonged use of mobile phones and, more specifically, by exposure to high-frequency electromagnetic fields.
