  • I.    Introduction

    Today, mobile phone is very important part not only in developed countries but also in developing countries. Every single moment there is a need of mobile phone. From dawn to dusk mobile phone is must with us. In Bangladesh the culture of mobile phone is very new actually the use of mobile phone was started from the very beginning of 1990’s. Mobile phone becomes very popular within a very short time in Bangladesh. About 85% of the people in Bangladesh are using the mobile phone now. From day laborer to the top class citizen have access on the mobile phone. From all around mobile phone is an essential element.

The impact of mobile phone is mixed on human behavior, someone say it has a positive impact and another negative impact. Mobile phone can highly have affected by the young generation all over the world. (Francke, 2007)

The total number of mobile phone users was117.758 in 2016 in Bangladesh ((BTRC), 2017). A huge number of mobile phone users are young generations and they are mostly affected by this device. The number of students was 2.4 million in JSC (bdnews24.com, 2016), 1.2 million in HSC (bdnews24.com, 2016), 1.65 million in SSC (bdnews24.com, 2016) and there is huge number of students are in the stage on graduation and under graduation levels. Moreover the others occupations people are using mobile phone for their daily conversation. Mobile phone is such kind of device which can affect the human behavior instantly in any place. There are two effects of mobile phone one is useful and another is harmful by the nature of users of this.

Mobile phone creates this world as bed of roses for all, when we are living in the post mobile age we have to face thousands of difficulties in each and every aspect of our life for an example to buy something we have to go to the market but mobile phones bring the market in our homes by the help of mobile commerce.

There are many people have been living in Bangladesh those cannot talk. Mobile phone brings the blessing for them, mobile phone introduce the text messing systems. By the blessing speechless people communicate with others.

Every day thousands of people are travelling all over the world and even in Bangladesh there are some many people are traveling in home and abroad. If they communicate in traditional post office service it will be very difficult to keep track with their friends and family members. But mobile phone creates an impossible thing as a possible one. Any one can communicate with each other in any part of the world.

Mobile phone can also make an emergency service by using mobile phone we can get the emergency service such as emergency ambulance, fire service or any other emergency which we have needed.

In this virtual world mobile phones are a part and parcel of our society. If we consider Bangladesh almost everyone has a phone of their own and it always see someone texting away or making a quick phone call or browsing internet or any other necessary, by touching or clicking. In Bangladesh each categories of people are using this miracle device for their daily activities without knowing the health hazard of this device and this device is affected the human behavior 24 hours in a day, each and every single second are affected by this device. Most of the people in Bangladesh find these to be extremely convenient resources for everyday life activities without considering the negative effects that cell phones could have on one’s health and living environment.

Mobile phones are the simplest way to stay connected with friends, beloved ones, colleagues and family or keep track on the news and views or instantly knowing news around this universe, since cellular devices have become so advanced and sophisticated technology. It cannot be ignored that it can affect our human body and brain, social life, personal life, family life and even the global life standard. For example, the major form of communication in Bangladesh is mobile phone which already have become.

The research was divided into two stages, in the first stage a survey had conducted on the basis of close and open ended questionnaires.

In the second stage a frame for sampling was made all over the Bangladesh in where 609 respondents were selected as sampling size.

  • A.    Survey Design and Conduction of Survey

The major source of data collection is survey. A close ended questionnaire is designed for collecting data. The questionnaires were divided in various sections which is related to the main objective of the research. There were secondary sources also used in this research for collecting the data. From the four divisions (Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna) of Bangladesh data were collected by using various means such as face to face contract with respondents, e-mail communication, phone interview, survey, social media communications etc. To analyze the collected data SPSS 23 software were used.

    The human behavior is rapidly changing with the touch of Information Technology all over the world. Technology is main key indicator of development of today’s world. The effect of mobile phone on daily activities of a human being is affected the whole society and even the whole country. Bangladesh is a developing country and the vision of this country is to adapt the technology all over the country in all aspect. Though the introduction of mobile phone was started in 1990s, the effect of mobile phone is much more than any other in Bangladesh. Most of the people are using the mobile phone for their daily activities. Sometimes the mobile phone can change the behavior of human being.

The traditional form of communication is being obsolete day by day in developed country. In developing country there also almost the thing is happened. Mobile phone has both positive and negative consequences effect on the way that individuals function in society and it has a strong effect on human behavior and human psychology (Chatterjee, 2014).

Most of the time the people are generally used the mobile phone more than any other task and even in some particular people are totally addicted by the mobile phone. Some studies found that driving while text messaging may be more dangerous than driving while under the alcohol influence (Oktay, 2006;Johnson, 2007 ;Dinesh, 2015; Campbell, 2005).

  • V.    Dataanalysis and Findings

All the information which was collected from50 locations including remote areas in Bangladesh by designing a survey. In this study the researcher analyzed609 respondents from all over the Bangladesh. From demographic to economic to social to psychological all sides were analyzed by the IBM SPSS software.

The numbers of people are surveyed were 609 from various region of the Bangladesh. From the table 1 it was shown that all the people were using mobile phone those who were participating on this survey. Though the all people of Bangladesh are not using the mobile phone, the study need such kind of people those who use mobile phone. For this reason, the study focused on those people who were using mobile phone in Bangladesh.

As our objectives is to gain the effect of mobile phone on human behavior generally in the developing country like Bangladesh so we collect all the data those who use mobile phone.

It was shown from the table 2 that 67.7 %(412) male and 32.3 %(197) female among the 609 people from the various region of Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet and Khulna division of Bangladesh. Most of the respondents were male (412 among 609), only 197 respondents were female because the number of mobile phone users in Bangladesh were male and they engaged with this device more than female portion. Most of the remote area’s female respondents did not use mobile phone.

From the very begging of the mobile phone service in Bangladesh they were using the mobile phone only for call and SMS for a very few people. But now it was shown that in Bangladesh most of the mobile phone users are using the internet facilities that means users are spending more and more time in browsing the internet. To browse the internet there is need any helps of others even no need to talk with others. Most of the internet users via mobile phone were isolated from the main stream of the society. Most of the young generations of our country were spending more time on internet browsing so they were not engaged in various social works even in their family programs. Most of the young generations in Bangladesh were fully affected by the internet on mobile phone.

From the table 14 it was shown that only 9.2% respondents strongly agree and 19.7% agree that mobile phone is curse. But rest of them thought that mobile phone is not curse for them if it was used properly for their welfare.
