  • The More Friends, the Less Political Talk? Predictors of Facebook Discussions Among College Students
    CYBERPSYCHOLOGY,BEHAVIOR, AND SOCIAL NETWORKING Volume 17, Number 5, 2014 ORIGINAL ARTICLES ª Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. DOI: 10.1089/cyber.2013.0477 The More Friends, the Less Political Talk? Predictors of Facebook Discussions Among College Students S. Mo Jang, BA,1 Hoon Lee, PhD,2 and Yong Jin Park, PhD3 Abstract Although previous research has indicated that Facebook users, especially young adults, can cultivate their civic values by talking about public matters with their Facebook friends, little research has examined the predictors of political discussion on Facebook. Using survey data from 442 college students in the United States, this study finds that individual characteristics and network size influence college students’ expressive behavior on Fa- cebook related to two controversial topics: gay rights issues and politics. In line with previous studies about offline political discussion, the results show that conflict avoidance and ambivalence about target issues are negatively associated with Facebook discussions. Perhaps the most interesting finding is that users who have a large number of Facebook friends are less likely to talk about politics and gay rights issues on Facebook despite having access to increasing human and information resources. Theoretical implications of these findings and future directions are addressed.

  • A Third-Person Perspective on Phubbing: Observing Smartphone- Induced Social Exclusion Generates Negative Affect, Stress, and Derogatory Attitudes
    Nuñez, T. R., Radtke, T., & Eimler, S. C. (2020). A third-person perspective on phubbing: Observing smartphone- induced social exclusion generates negative affect, stress, and derogatory attitudes. Cyberpsychology: Journal of Psychosocial Research on Cyberspace, 14(3), Article 3. https://doi.org/10.5817/CP2020-3-3 A Third-Person Perspective on Phubbing: Observing Smartphone- Induced Social Exclusion Generates Negative Affect, Stress, and Derogatory Attitudes Tania Roxana Nuñez1,2, Theda Radtke2, Sabrina Cornelia Eimler3 1Institute of Psychology, University of Wuppertal, Wuppertal, Germany 2School of Psychology and Psychotherapy, Witten/Herdecke University, Witten, Germany 3Institute of Positive Computing, University of Applied Sciences Ruhr West, Bottrop, Germany Abstract Phubbing (phone-snubbing) has become a pervasive public communication phenomenon which adversely affects its targets and sources. Yet, research on phubbing is not built on a consistent theoretical basis and examinations on its effects on the public are still missing. This study aimed at addressing these research gaps by conceptualizing the behavior as an act of smartphone-induced social exclusion and investigating whether phubbing impacts its observers. In a between-subject experiment, N = 160 participants observed photos of dyadic interpersonal interactions in different everyday contexts which depicted one-sided, reciprocal, or no phubbing. Results revealed that observers of phubbing experienced negative affect and stress. Observers also derogated individuals who used

  • Passive Facebook Usage Undermines Affective Well-Being: Experimental and Longitudinal Evidence
    Journal of Experimental Psychology: General © 2015 American Psychological Association 2015, Vol. 144, No. 2, 480–488 0096-3445/15/$12.00 http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/xge0000057 Passive Facebook Usage Undermines Affective Well-Being: Experimental and Longitudinal Evidence Philippe Verduyn David Seungjae Lee, Jiyoung Park, Holly Shablack, University of Leuven Ariana Orvell, Joseph Bayer, Oscar Ybarra, John Jonides, and Ethan Kross University of Michigan, Ann Arbor Prior research indicates that Facebook usage predicts declines in subjective well-being over time. How does this come about? We examined this issue in 2 studies using experimental and field methods. In Study 1, cueing people in the laboratory to use Facebook passively (rather than actively) led to declines in affective well-being over time. Study 2 replicated these findings in the field using experience-sampling techniques. It also demonstrated how passive Facebook usage leads to declines in affective well-being: by increasing envy. Critically, the relationship between passive Facebook usage and changes in affective well-being remained significant when controlling for active Facebook use, non-Facebook online social network usage, and direct social interactions, highlighting the specificity of this result. These findings demonstrate that passive Facebook usage undermines affective well-being. Keywords: Facebook, social support, well-being, envy, online social networks Just a decade ago people primarily relied on face-to-face inter- clines? We addressed this question by examining whether the way actions, the phone, and e-mail to connect.

  • Chapter 13: Sport & Health Cyberpsychology
    Chapter 13: Sport & Health Cyberpsychology Dr Olivia Hurley Chapter Overview This chapter introduces readers to the potential impact of technology on the sporting lives and health behaviours of individuals. The first part of the chapter presents information related to athletes’ use of technology to prepare, mentally and physically, for their sport, as well as the use of technology to help athletes cope with rehabilitation from sports injuries. The use of technology to assistin the athlete-sport psychologist consulting process is discussed, along with topical issues, such as the influence of social media(i.e., Twitter and Facebook) on individuals’ involvement in sport. The second part of the chapter addressesissues related to the impact of technology in promoting health related behaviours online. Topics such as the sharing of health related information online, the benefits and dangers of online support groups and the debate surrounding the existence of the condition, cyberchondriasis, are also addressed. Key Terms Mental preparationis a broad term used to describe the ways in which athletes ‘ready’ themselves, mentally, to participate in their sport. Such preparation could be influenced by social media, whichrefersto websites and online social networks that individuals use to communicate and share information online. Twitter is an example of such an online social network, and involves individuals posting short messages that their ‘followers’ can read, favour and retweet. While social media use has ‘boomed’ in recent years, the emergence of exergaminghas also risen. It is the term used to describe the activity of playing interactive games consoles, such as the Wii and WiiFit.Such games have been devised in part to increase the activity levels of the individual players, given the increasing sedentary lifestyles that many individuals now lead.

  • Immersion, Presence, Interactivity: Towards a Joint Understanding of Factors Influencing Virtual Reality Acceptance And
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by AIS Electronic Library (AISeL) Factors Influencing VR Acceptance and Use Immersion, Presence, Interactivity: Towards a Joint Understanding of Factors Influencing Virtual Reality Acceptance and Use Full Paper Joschka Mütterlein Thomas Hess LMU Munich LMU Munich [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Virtual Reality (VR) has started to diffuse into the market. Research can accompany this process by providing insights into adoption of the technology. However, although first studies have been conducted early, there are few empirical findings shedding light on issues of acceptance and use of VR. This is because the used models often suffer from omissions or only partially cover important variables for distinct characteristics of the technology, especially immersion, presence, and interactivity. Additionally, the applied variables are occasionally incorrectly specified. To lay a better foundation for investigating adoption and diffusion of VR, we explore relevant influence factors based on insights from previous works and a qualitative study with 20 participants. Besides issues of misspecification, our findings show that many contextual factors have been neglected. Moreover, we identify content quality, initial excitement, isolation, and distraction as new potentially relevant factors. Keywords Virtual reality, technology acceptance and use, influencing factors, nomological network. Introduction In recent years, virtual reality (VR) technology has matured, enabling novel private and corporate use scenarios. On the one hand, these encompass individual entertainment experiences similar to films and games with a hedonic use motivation. On the other hand, there are innovative offers for virtual collaboration with hedonic and utilitarian motivations.

  • Does Africa Dream of Androids?
    Disability and the Global South, 2014 OPEN ACCESS Vol.1, No. 1, 64-84 ISSN 2050-7364 www.dgsjournal.org Does Africa Dream of Androids? Florence Okoyea* aManchester Digital Laboratory. Corresponding Author- Email: [email protected] This paper is part of a broader investigation into the intersection of disability and technology in African societies. The paper will focus specifically on Nigerian cultures, exploring the social experience of disabled persons with respect to their use of available technologies in navigating a space within their respective cultures. The paper will first deal with the technologies available to disabled people in pre-colonial West Africa as suggested by archaeological and literary evidence, go on to analyse how changes in economic and cultural systems brought about by colonialism and the post-colonial state, shifted the roles and technologies available to disabled people. The paper argues that the African cyborg has been an inspiration for new technologies, and an agent of technological and social change. Simultaneously, increased connectivity has enabled indigenous technologists to more quickly share and develop ideas. It has also empowered new generations of technologists with the potential to radically improve disabled access to areas of public life. The paper concludes that as a focus of metaphysical anxieties, the cyborg has evolved to something approximating the New African, someone who can defy boundaries to achieve an act worthy of herself and the her community – an agent of revolution and social change

  • Social Media Addiction: Its Impact, Mediation, and Intervention
    Hou, Y., Xiong, D., Jiang, T., Song, L., & Wang, Q. (2019). Social media addiction: Its impact, mediation, and intervention. Cyberpsychology: Journal of Psychosocial Research on Cyberspace, 13(1), article 4. http://dx.doi.org/10.5817/CP2019-1-4 Social media addiction: Its impact, mediation, and intervention Yubo Hou1, Dan Xiong1, 2, Tonglin Jiang1, 3, Lily Song4, & Qi Wang5 1 Peking University, China 2 Southwest University, China 3 The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong 4 Institute of Psychology, Chinese Academy of Science, China 5 Cornell University, The USA Abstract This research examined the relations of social media addiction to college students' mental health and academic performance, investigated the role of self-esteem as a mediator for the relations, and further tested the effectiveness of an intervention in reducing social media addiction and its potential adverse outcomes. In Study 1, we used a survey method with a sample of college students (N = 232) and found that social media addiction was negatively associated with the students' mental health and academic performance and that the relation between social media addiction and mental health was mediated by self-esteem. In Study 2, we developed and tested a two-stage self-help intervention program. We recruited a sample of college students (N = 38) who met criteria for social media addiction to receive the intervention. Results showed that the intervention was effective in reducing the students’ social media addiction and improving their mental health and academic efficiency. The current studies yielded original findings that contribute to the empirical database on social media addiction and that have important theoretical and practical implications.
