Many mobile phone users keep checking their mobile phones thinking it has vibrated, only to find no one has called. This sensory hallucination has a name - Phantom Vibration Syndrome (PVS) and it is a common phenomenon with people carrying pagers or cell phones kept on 'vibrate' mode.

人生有三大错觉：手机震动，有人敲门，他/她喜欢我。不少手机使用者老以为自己的手机震动了，结果看了之后才发现根本没人打电话来。这种幻觉名为——幽灵震动综合症(Phantom Vibration Syndrome,PVS),佩戴传呼机和手机的人常常会有这种情况。

PVS is also called 'ringxiety' most probably because this syndrome is not limited to phones in 'vibrate' mode but include ring tones as well. So much so, Phantom Vibration Syndrome has been named the Macquarie Dictionary's Word for the Year 2017.

PVS这种现象不仅仅限于手机“震动”，还有响铃。这一现象如此普遍，因此2017年，幽灵震动综合症还被评为年度热词。

Mobile phones, suggest psychologists, are now recognized as a form of self-expressive identity. The younger generations of mobile phone users personalize their phones to express their identity by decorating their phones and having unique ring-tones.

心理学家认为，手机现在已经成为了自我表达的一种形式。年轻一代的手机用户装饰自己的手机或者采用独一无二的铃声，来表现自己的个性。
