Blurring Safety Between Online and Offline Worlds Blurring Safety Between Online and Offline Worlds: Archival, Correlational, and Experimental Evidence of Generalized Threat in the Digital Age by Jessica E. Bodford A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved April 2017 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Virginia S. Y. Kwan, Chair Bradley Adame Douglas Kenrick Paulo Shakarian ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2017 ABSTRACT Decades of research in cyberpsychology and human-computer interaction has pointed to a strong distinction between the online and offline worlds, suggesting that attitudes and behaviors in one domain do not necessarily generalize to the other. However, as humans spend increasing amounts of time in the digital world, psychological understandings of safety may begin to influence human perceptions of threat while online. This dissertation therefore examines whether perceived threat generalizes between domains across archival, correlational, and experimental research methods. Four studies offer insight into the relationship between objective indicators of physical and online safety on the levels of nation and state; the relationship between perceptions of these forms of safety on the individual level; and whether experimental manipulations of one form of threat influence perceptions of threat in the opposite domain. In addition, this work explores the impact of threat perception-related personal and situational factors, as well as the impact of threat type (i.e., self-protection, resource), on this hypothesized relationship. Collectively, these studies evince a positive relationship between physical and online safety in macro-level actuality and individual-level perception. Among individuals, objective indicators of community safety—as measured by zip code crime data—were a positive reflection of perceptions of physical safety; these perceptions, in turn, mapped onto perceived online safety. The generalization between perceived physical threat and online threat was stronger after being exposed to self-protection threat manipulations, possibly underscoring the more dire nature of threats to bodily safety than those to valuable resources. Most notably, experimental findings suggest that it is not the i physical that informs the digital, but rather the opposite: Online threats blur more readily into physical domains, possibly speaking to the concern that dangers specific to the digital world will bleed into the physical one. This generalization of threat may function as a strategy to prepare oneself for future dangers wherever they might appear; and indeed, perceived threat in either world positively influenced desires to act on recommended safety practices. Taken together, this research suggests that in the realm of threat perception, the boundaries between physical and digital are less rigid than may have been previously believed. ii To Virginia, who gave me a chance when cyberpsychology was still in its infancy; and to my favorite beard and co-pilot, for harboring an identical optimism that this digitally connected world will solve more problems than it creates. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I gratefully acknowledge the National Science Foundation for funding early iterations of this research through the Graduate Research Fellowship Program (Grant No. 12-061). I would also like to express my sincerest gratitude to Facebook, Inc. for funding this dissertation, for approaching this area of work with enthusiasm, and for teaching me to never mistake motion for progress. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Page LIST OF TABLES ................................................................................................................ vii LIST OF FIGURES ................................................................................................................. x INTRODUCTION ................................................................................................................... 1 Overview of the Present Research ............................................................................... 2 Physical and Online Safety ........................................................................................... 3 Person- and Situation-Specific Factors ........................................................................ 9 Research Questions and Hypotheses .......................................................................... 15 Theoretical Contributions ........................................................................................... 24 STUDY 1...... ......................................................................................................................... 26 Method ........................................................................................................................ 26 Results and Discussion ............................................................................................... 29 STUDY 2..... .......................................................................................................................... 30 Method ........................................................................................................................ 30 Results and Discussion ............................................................................................... 32 STUDY 3..... .......................................................................................................................... 33 Method ........................................................................................................................ 33 Results and Discussion ............................................................................................... 38 STUDY 4..... .......................................................................................................................... 44 Method ........................................................................................................................ 45 Results and Discussion ............................................................................................... 53 v Page GENERAL DISCUSSION ................................................................................................... 81 Summary of Findings ................................................................................................. 81 Limitations and Future Directions .............................................................................. 88 Contributions and Implications .................................................................................. 92 REFERENCES ...................................................................................................................... 98 APPENDIX A STUDY 3 MATERIALS ...................................................................................... 107 B STUDY 3 IRB APPROVAL ................................................................................. 112 C STUDY 4 MATERIALS ....................................................................................... 114 D STUDY 4 IRB APPROVAL ................................................................................ 133 E ADDITIONAL TABLES ...................................................................................... 135 vi LIST OF TABLES Table Page 1.

All passages quoted from publications or paraphrased from these sources are properly cited and attributed. The thesis was not submitted in the same or in a substantially similar version, not even partially, to another examination board and was not published elsewhere. 22.01.2021 Date Signature 2 Abstract The ongoing digitalization in the retail industry is a process that has been going on for many years. However, the outbreak of the novel disease Covid-19 fastened the digitalization process by forcing businesses to adapt to a needed digital way of operating within weeks. This thesis aims to identify the influence of Covid-19 on the retail industry's digitalization process as well as how it affected the consumers' decision to shop online versus offline. An online questionnaire helped to understand to what extent the novel disease Covid-19 influenced the decision to shop online versus offline and how the participants' perception towards shopping online has changed. The researcher was able to receive 117 valid responses from the questionnaire. The received data presents the strong impact of Covid-19 on the participants online shopping frequency. Since the outbreak of Covid-19, most participants indicated a substantial increase in their shopping frequency.

  • Network Science, Web Science and Internet Science: Comparing Interdisciplinary Areas
    Network Science, Web Science and Internet Science: comparing interdisciplinary areas Thanassis Tiropanis1, Wendy Hall1, Jon Crowcroft2, Noshir Contractor3, Leandros Tassiulas4 1 University of Southampton 2 University of Cambridge 3 Northwestern University 4 University of Thessaly ABSTRACT In this paper, we examine the fields of Network Science, Web Science and Internet Science. All three areas are interdisciplinary, and since the Web is based on the Internet, and both the Web and the Internet are networks, there is perhaps confusion about the relationship between them. We study the extent of overlap and ask whether one includes the others, or whether they are all part of the same larger domain. This paper provides an account of the emergence of each of these areas and outlines a framework for comparison. Based on this framework, we discuss these overlaps and propose directions for harmonization of research activities. INTRODUCTION The observation of patterns that characterise networks, from biological to technological and social, and the impact of the Web and the Internet on society and business have motivated interdisciplinary research to advance our understanding of these systems. Their study has been the subject of Network Science research for a number of years. However, more recently we have witnessed the emergence of two new interdisciplinary areas: Web Science and Internet Science. Network Science Network science can be traced to its mathematical origins dating back to Leonard Euler’s seminal work on graph theory (Euler, 1741) in the 18th century and to its social scientific origins two centuries later by the psychiatrist Jacob Moreno’s (1953) efforts to develop “sociometry.” Soon thereafter, the mathematical framework offered by graph theory was also picked up by psychologists (Bavelas, 1950), anthropologists (Mitchell, 1956), and other social scientists to create an interdiscipline called Social Networks.

Lievrouw, Chair Technological time has been a topic of much theorization and dread, as both intellectuals and laypeople fear that human life is increasingly becoming secondary to the technological world. Feelings of despair and nihilism, perhaps attributable to social, political and economic upheavals brought by the synchronization of human life with technology, have been theorized by numerous scholars in a plethora of overlapping disciplines. What is left undertheorized is how technology develops in ways that might or might not actually foster these sensations of synchronicity, or speed. Technological development includes patterns of social coordination and consumption, as well as individual use and goals, that all relate to a sense of lived time. But what of the ways that technical design fosters these relations? What is the discourse of time in technological projects? This dissertation investigates the aforementioned questions in the context of NSF-funded Future Internet Architecture (FIA) projects—Named Data Networking (NDN), eXpressive Internet Architecture (XIA), and Mobility First (MF)—which are currently underway.

  • Travelbehavior.Com Activity Approaches to Modeling the Effects of Information Technology on Personal Travel Behavior
    TRAVELBEHAVIOR.COM ACTIVITY APPROACHES TO MODELING THE EFFECTS OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ON PERSONAL TRAVEL BEHAVIOR Thomas F. Golob Institute of Transportation Studies University of California Irvine, California 92697-3600 USA 1. OBJECTIVES This paper puts forth some ideas for extending travel behavior modeling to account for interactions between travel and telecommunications. Information technology (IT, sometimes referred to as communications and information technology, or CIT) is burgeoning, providing unlimited business opportunities for entrepreneurs to develop and sell IT products and services. While most of these products and services are not specifically designed to affect travel behavior, they do, often in subtle and unexpected ways. The connectivity of the Internet and the proliferation of capable and affordable home computers and communication devices have encouraged flexible work arrangements and made e-commerce the fastest growing sector of most western economies. For many people, the home has become a viable site for the conduct of certain activities that formerly could only be conducted at non-home locations. In addition, cellular telephones and other portable computer and communications devices have redefined our ability to conduct business and dynamically schedule activities while traveling or at locations away from home or workplace. The wave of technological advances that brought us the Internet, mobile phone, and personal digital assistants (PDA’s) is not slowing down. The future will bring a next-generation Internet with higher speed, multimedia capability and intelligent agent technology. It will be accessible by both PC’s and “Internet appliances” such as television set-top boxes, videogame consoles and smart handheld devices. Accessibility can no longer be measured only in terms of travel time, distance or generalized travel cost.
