Overview of cellphones in our lives. The study of how cell phones affect our everyday life. The increase of technology and information processes is drawing an explanation for how people use cell phones, showing us the footprints in cellphone usage, and closeness in relationships. Through research we can analyze social interactions through mobile phones, and the study of mobile communication records. Cell phones take place in relationships, social interactions, and during important events leading a distraction from reality for a brief moment.
Smartphones are becoming smarter, not just by the services they offer, but also from the characteristics of information they provide about their users. Recent off-the-shelf phone items come equipped …show more content…
ICT, information communication technology has and still is providing a significant amount of new services for every individual in society to use, leaving a record “digital footprint” after every user transaction. The measure of closeness of social relationships is one of the fundamental issues in sociology and it vital in the extended social brain process. This states that capacity of creating social ties is limited by the brain capacity 150 as a result of human evolution. Researchers found the number of very close relationships is very small (3-5), and to continue them a new close relationship inescapably tends to make an older one weaker. In recent studies show there are remarkable differences between gender preferences of the “best friend” (defined by most frequently contacted partner) and relationships in lower ranks. As the next step, researchers consider how a best friend is defined by reliability. The methods researchers used were the probability that described a null value. The researchers measured the procedures by estimating reliability level …show more content…
The mobile phone has implemented as a type of “affective technology.” And this is deeply connected to the lives of cell phone user’s emotions. It’s also referred to a powerful tool for cyber –psychology. Studying mobile phone use, emotion regulation and well-being, researchers examined the use of mobile phones to regulate negative emotions, seeing both the role of different characteristics of phone use and individual differences in emotion regulation strategies. H1: Reappraisal will be connected with omitted interpersonal uses of phone (contact, social support) but not access to entertainment/information content. RQ1: How will suppression be associated with neglected uses/functions of the mobile phone? An online survey was designed for a total of 287 young adult smartphone users that addressed use of mobile phones for negative emotion regulation. They responded to a scenario in which a cell phone was lost by rating how much they would miss the usage and functions of phone (which can be involved in emotional regulation). Generally the study establishes that mobile phones can produce psychological benefits depending on how they are used. Researchers found that using the mobile for social support will lead to effective remediation of negative
