Background: The present study aimed at investigating the role of depression and attachment styles in predicting cell phone addiction. Methods: In this descriptive correlational study, a sample including ۱۰۰ students of Payame Noor University (PNU), Reyneh Center, Iran, in the academic year of ۲۰۱۳-۲۰۱۴ was selected using volunteer sampling. Participants were asked to complete the adult attachment inventory (AAI), Beck depression inventory-۱۳ (BDI-۱۳) and the cell phone overuse scale (COS). Findings: Results of the stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that depression and avoidant attachment style were the best predictors of students’ cell phone addiction (R۲ = ۰.۲۳). Conclusion: The results of this study highlighted the predictive value of depression and avoidant attachment style concerning students’ cell phone addiction.
