Filter by:The present study will explore the underlying mechanisms of problematic Internet and smartphone use by focusing on how and when environmental factors affect the positive psychological intervention factors. Hence, the present study will provide scientific empirical evidence to design and formulate follow-up intervention strategies. Aims: I. Apply the dynamic system model of addictive behavior execution in Chinese adolescents with problematic Internet and smartphone use and use longitudinal data to track and explore the underlying mechanisms of environmental factors and personal factors on problematic Internet and smartphone use. II. Identify positive psychological intervention factors that effectively prevent and reduce problematic Internet and smartphone use according to the interview and provide empirical evidence for other intervention designs. III. Conducting a positive psychological intervention in an adolescent population to verify the protective effect of positive psychology factors on problematic Internet and smartphone use. Hypotheses: I. Environmental factors (e.g., child abuse and trauma, parenting behaviors, teachers' encouragement, peer support) will affect the problematic Internet and smartphone use through personal characteristics (e.g., meaning in life); II. The effect of environmental factors on problematic Internet and smartphone use through personal characteristics will be moderated by other positive psychological intervention factors (e.g., character strengths); III. Positive psychological intervention (e.g., meaning-based intervention, strengths-based intervention) is an effective intervention strategy to prevent and reduce problematic Internet and smartphone use.
The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between screen usage time and problematic social media use in children with Cerebral Palsy (CP) with motor function, hand function, speech and vision function.
In the last decade, research on social media and mental health has produced mixed results. Overall, the current findings suggest that the negative effects on mental health are exacerbated by longer and more frequent social media usage, whereas the positive effects are bolstered when social media is used to connect with other people. With the largest number of global users, Facebook is the most frequently studied social media network. Over the past few years, the increasing concerns about the risks associated with Facebook have even translated to wider pop culture conversations, as exemplified by the 2020 documentary The Social Dilemma. In response, Facebook has rolled out a series of features supposed to mitigate these risks and encourage responsible social media usage. These features include activity trackers and reminders, unfollow and snooze buttons, and data sharing regulators. Currently, there is no research done to address whether (1) these features are used at all, and (2) whether they are successful in moderating the negative mental health consequences of Facebook usage. This study seeks to address the gap in literature through a survey done on the crowdsourcing platform Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk).
In this pretest-posttest, randomized controlled study, the effect of the empowerment program developed based on Roy Adaptation on the healthy lifestyle behaviors, self-esteem and social media addiction of nursing students will be examined. The hypothesis of this study is that the empowerment program based on Roy Adaptation Model reduces Social Media Addiction, increases Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors and Self-Esteem.
