The association between electronic media use and quality of life (QoL) in Norwegian adolescents

Abstract Background The use of screens, especially mobile devices like tablets and smartphones have increased over the last years and have become an integrated part of modern life. Adolescents today spend a lot of their time using screens both at school and outside school. Identifying how screen use are related to QoL is necessary to plan effective policies and interventions in adolescence since it is the period where different behaviours are adopted. The purpose of this study is to examine the association between electronic media use and quality of life (QoL) among adolescents. Methods This study was based on self-reported cross-sectional data from the Young-Hunt4 study, conducted in 2017-2019. The target group comprised 8066 13-19 years old adolescents. QoL was measured with the Norwegian version of the Inventory of Life Quality (ILC). The ILC scale consists of seven items with four response alternatives. Electronic media use was measured using the two variables Social media use and Gaming. Multiple linear regression was used to analyse the association between gaming, social media use and QoL. Results Preliminary results showed an inverse association between gaming (>3 hours per day) after school and quality of life (β: -.07, p < 0.001) and social media use (>3 hours per day) after school and quality of life (β = -.06, p < 0.001). Similar inverse associations were observed between gaming (>3 hours per day) in the weekend and quality of life (β: -.09, p < 0.001) and social media use (>3 hours per day) in the weekend and quality of life (β = -.04, p = 0.002). These associations remained significant after controlling for gender, age, family economy, psychological distress and having friends. Conclusions More than three hours on screens per day after school was negatively associated with QoL. Hence, public health policy and practice should pay attention to consequences of screen time use in adolescence. Additional research is needed to further explore these associations. Key messages • More frequent use of electronic media is negatively associated with QoL. • Public health policy and practice should pay attention to screen time in adolescence and its association with QoL.

DAMPAK LAYANAN PERBANKAN DIGITAL TERHADAP KINERJA PERBANKAN DI INDONESIA

Advances in digital technology encourage the transition from conventional lifestyles to the digital era, one of which is digital banking services. The use of electronic media in financial products is expected to provide faster, easier, and more appropriate services to customer needs (customer experience), and ensure that customers can make transactions independently by paying attention to security aspects. Banking performance can of course also be influenced by the adoption of these digital banking services. This study aims to determine the effect of digital financial services such as electronic money, ATMs, credit cards, SMS banking and internet banking on banking performance in Indonesia in 2021-2023. Using simple linear regression analysis techniques, it can be seen that credit cards and internet banking can have a significant positive effect on banking performance. A positive relationship is also shown by the SMS banking variable but is not significant. Meanwhile, ATMs and e-money show a negative and insignificant effect on banking performance in Indonesia.

The role of digital arbitration in the resolution of electronic commerce disputes between the necessity of application and the imperative of confrontation

The world has recently undergone a major shift in international information technology, software and communications, which has been regarded as a global revolution in many areas. and transformed traditional means of commercial transactions into electronic means of communication through the promotion, exchange and completion of transactions of goods using modern telecommunications and information exchange technology without the parties meeting in one place, Whether mutual commitments can be implemented electronically or require concrete physical implementation which created for us e-commerce that has become a reality of a real pension, It is also one of the economic pillars of the State and an important mechanism for raising productivity. This necessitates the provision of the appropriate legal environment and the search for means to ensure that they are controlled within a systematic and regulated legal framework, In particular, contracts involving international parties via the Internet require delving into private international law, the determination of the judicial area for the resolution of electronic commerce disputes and the determination of applicable law was a major burden on parties and States, which prompted their clients to seek alternative electronic mechanisms to replace traditional courts to settle disputes resulting from the use of electronic media in their commercial transactions, so-called ODR dispute resolution. s electronic teleconference, this has made recourse to electronic or digital arbitration as a virtual judge system a requirement of many international organizations and associations. The forms raised: how effective is digital or electronic arbitration in resolving e-commerce disputes? We therefore divide our research into two sections, dealing with section I: the conceptual framework for electronic commerce as well as digital electronic arbitration, and section II: the role of digital arbitration in the termination and resolution of e-commerce disputes.

Investigation of bi-directional relations between pre-sleep electronic media use and sleep: A seven-day dairy study

The current study aimed to examine the bi-directional relationships between pre-sleep electronic media use and sleep, and to assess the relative predictive strength of different types of electronic media use in the evening on subsequent sleep. Eighty-eight young adults (20.57 ± 0.99, 27 males) completed an online intake survey and received notifications to complete daily diaries for seven consecutive days. Results of dynamic structural equation models (DSEM) revealed that the total screen time, sleep onset time, sleep latency, sleep duration, and sleep quality showed significant positive autoregressive parameters. In contrast, the results revealed no statistically significant cross-lagged associations between the total screen time in the evening and sleep outcomes. Inspection of the predictive strength of various types of screen activities at the within-person level revealed that increased active social media use is linked to delayed sleep onset, while internet browsing is associated with shorter sleep latency. At the between-person level, screen time of T.V. watching, video streaming, social media use, and shopping correlated with delayed sleep onset. Shopping was also connected to longer sleep latency. Additionally, more time spent on T.V., video streaming, non-work internet browsing, and shopping was linked to reduced total sleep duration. These findings indicated a screen activity-dependent association between pre-sleep screen time and subsequent sleep. More objective assessments of electronic media use (e.g., app recording screen time) and sleep (e.g., actigraphy) and longitudinal monitoring over a relatively long period (i.e., several weeks or months) are warred to further elucidate (cross-lagged) relationships between electronic media use and sleep.

Influences of Social Media on Omani Youth’s Health

The study focused on the influences of social media on Omani Youth and their lifestyle. The challenges associated with social media may be especially risky for young people who are already experiencing mental health difficulties, as suggested by the bidirectional relationship between the use of electronic media and a decrease in psychological well-being. Social media causes depression and anxiety from stress. Depression and emotional instability are some of the main psychological problems shown in many youths. There is a need for public awareness campaigns and social policy initiatives that promote nurturing home and school environments that foster resilience as youth navigate the challenges of adolescence in today’s world. The youth should avoid excessive use of social media. They should be balanced in their life and give proper time to other activities that will help them to develop their capabilities.

Acceptance of e-learning and associated factors among postgraduate medical and health science students at first generation universities in Amhara region, 2023: using modified technology acceptance model

BackgroundElectronic learning is the process of remote teaching and learning through the use of electronic media. There is a dearth of research on the factors influencing e-learning acceptance in Ethiopia using the modified technology acceptance model (TAM). Previous research appears to have overlooked the mediating impact of factors on e-learning acceptability Therefore, the present study aimed to assess the acceptance of e-learning and its associated factors among postgraduate medical and health science students by applying TAM at first-generation universities in the Amhara region.MethodsThis institutional-based cross-sectional study was conducted from March 15 to April 20, 2023, at Amhara First Generation University, Ethiopia. A total of 659 students participated in the study. A self-administered questionnaire in the Amharic language was used to collect the data. SEM analysis was employed to test the proposed model and the relationships among factors using SPSS version 25 and AMOS version 26.ResultsThe proportion of postgraduate students who agreed to use e-learning was 60.7%, 95% CI (56.9–64.4). SEM analysis revealed that perceived ease of use (β = 0.210, p < 0.001), attitude (β = 0.377, p < 0.001) and perceived usefulness (β = 0.330, p < 0.001) had positive direct relationships with acceptance of e-learning. Perceived usefulness (β = 0.131, p < 0.001), and perceived ease of use (β = 0.029, p < 0.01) significantly mediate the relationship between self-efficacy, and acceptance of e-learning. Accessibility had a positive indirect effect on acceptance of e-learning through perceived ease of use (β = 0.040, p < 0.01). Facilitating condition had a positive indirect on acceptance of e-learning through perceived ease of use (β = 0.070, p < 0.01), and perceived usefulness (β = 0.084, p < 0.001).Conclusion and recommendationOverall, the proportion of postgraduate students who accepted e-learning is promising. Perceived ease of use perceived usefulness, and attitude had positive direct effects on the acceptance of e-learning. Facilitating conditions and self-efficacy had positive indirect effects on the acceptance of e-learning. Thus, implementers need to prioritize enhancing the provision of devices, students’ skills, and knowledge of e-learning by providing continuous support to improve students’ acceptance of the use of e-learning.

Prospective cohort study on non-specific symptoms, cognitive, behavioral, sleep and mental health in relation to electronic media use and transportation noise among adolescents (HERMES): study protocol

Electronic media (eMedia) devices along with exposure to transportation noise are integral to the daily routines of adolescents. The concerns associated with excessive eMedia usage extend beyond sleep deprivation to include the heightened exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) emitted by these wireless devices. The aim of HERMES (Health Effects Related to Mobile PhonE Use in AdolescentS) study is to better understand biophysical and psychological pathways in relation to eMedia, RF-EMF exposure use and transportation noise that may effect on cognitive, behavioral, sleep and mental health, as well as non-specific symptoms. Following two previous HERMES cohorts conducted between 2012 and 2015 we have initiated the third wave of HERMES study as a prospective cohort with intermediate (every four months) and one year follows-up. Eligible participants are adolescents attending 7th or 8th school grades in Northwest and Central Switzerland. Baseline examinations are a questionnaire on eMedia usage and selected health outcomes, as well as computerized cognitive tests. In addition, parents/guardians are asked to fill in a questionnaire about their child’s health and potential eMedia use determinants. Far-field RF-EMF exposure and transportation noise at the place of residence and school are predicted based on a propagation model. Cumulative RF-EMF brain dose is calculated based on self-reported eMedia use, mobile phone operator data, and RF-EMF modelling. A follow-up visit is conducted one year later, and two interim questionnaires are sent to adolescents to be completed at home. Between baseline and 1-year follow-up, a subsample of 150 study participants is invited to collect personal RF-EMF measurements as well as sleep and physical activity data using accelerometers. This new recruitment wave of HERMES study provides a greater understanding of causal pathways between eMedia, RF EMF, and transportation noise exposure and their effects on health outcomes, with relevant implications for both governmental health policy and lay people alike.

Daily Electronic Media Use and Sleep in Late Life.

Daily electronic media use, including television viewing and computer use, is common in older adulthood. Yet, increased electronic media usage may disrupt nightly sleep, leading to sleeping fewer hours and more sleep disruptions. The current study examined these relationships in older adulthood, as well as the potential buffering effect of having a regular sleep schedule. Older adults (N = 273) from the Daily Experiences and Well-Being Study (DEWS) completed 5-6 days of data collection where they answered questions at the beginning of the day about the previous night's sleep as well as questions throughout the day about daily electronic media use. They also wore Actical accelerometers to capture sleep regularity. Older adults reported sleeping fewer hours and having more sleep disturbances on days when they reported more instances of computer use. Sleep regularity moderated the daily association between TV viewing and sleep disturbances such that daily TV viewing was associated with more sleep complaints only for older adults who had less regular sleep patterns. However, sleep regularity no longer moderated this association when accounting for napping behavior. These findings provide evidence that older adults sleep worse after days when they engage in more electronic media use. The association with TV viewing with sleep disturbances on any given day is somewhat mitigated by engaging in regular sleep patterns. Researchers discuss the importance of assessing electronic media use and sleep in daily life as the role of sleep regularity may be a modifiable protective factor.

Interplay between Children's Electronic Media Use and Prosocial Behavior: The Chain Mediating Role of Parent-Child Closeness and Emotion Regulation.

In the contemporary digital milieu, children's pervasive engagement with electronic media is ubiquitous in their daily lives, presenting complex implications for their socialization. Prosocial behavior, a cornerstone of social interaction and child development, is intricately intertwined with these digital experiences. This relation gains further depth, considering the significant roles of parent-child relationships and emotion regulation in shaping children's social trajectories. This study surveyed 701 families to examine the association between children's electronic media use and prosocial behavior, specifically exploring the mediating roles of parent-child closeness and emotion regulation. Structural equation modeling was employed for the analysis. Children's electronic media use negatively correlated with prosocial behavior, parent-child closeness, and emotion regulation. In contrast, a positive association emerged between parent-child closeness, emotion regulation, and prosocial behavior. Emotion regulation also correlated positively with prosocial behavior. Statistical analyses revealed that parent-child closeness and emotion regulation function as both individual and sequential mediators in the relation between electronic media use and prosocial behavior. The study's analyses reveal that fostering children's prosocial behavior in the digital era requires strong family ties, effective emotional management, and balanced digital exposure, which are pivotal for their comprehensive development.

Association between sleep quality and habits of electronic media use among young adults with different circadian typology

Background: Circadian preference refers to individual differences for mental and physical activity in the morning and evening. We hypothesized, that inadvertent use of electronic media can cause circadian misalignment that influences sleeping habits and sleep quality of young adults. Aims and Objectives: The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of circadian preferences on sleeping habits and the association of electronic media use with sleep quality and sleep disturbances. Materials and Methods: A total of 188 subjects were enrolled and divided into three groups: Evening, intermediate, and morning chronotype based on the Morningness-Eveningness score. Electronic media use at bedtime and duration of use were assessed subjectively. Sleep quality and subjective sleep disturbances, daytime sleepiness, and chronotype were assessed by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Epworth Sleepiness Score, and Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire Self-assessment version, respectively. Results: The majority of subjects with the evening chronotypes suffered from poor sleep quality compared to other chronotypes and the difference was statistically significant. In evening-type subjects, electronic media use at bedtime, long sleep latency, short sleep duration, and daytime sleepiness were significantly associated with poor sleep quality with odds ratios of 2.34 (1.08–5.08), 11.42 (4.98–26.19), 8.54 (1.01–68.24), and 1.68 (1.03–2.73), respectively. Conclusion: The majority of evening-type subjects had poor sleep quality, altered sleeping habits, and electronic media use at bedtime is significantly associated with poor sleep quality. Hence, history regarding sleep habits and lifestyle, especially electronic media use, should be taken from young adults, who are coming to the outpatient department for other than sleep disorders, to prevent the development of health-related problems.

전자매체 구술성을 활용한 대학 &lt;글쓰기&gt; 수업 사례 연구

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of electronic media use in college liberal arts &lt;writing&gt; classes. In this study, we examined the effi ciency of using electronic media throughout the entire column writing process. The subject of the study is the survey results of two classes and the writing results of one class conducted in the &lt;Writing&gt; class at A University located in the Gyeo ngnam region in the second semester of 2022. The orality of electronic media can be viewed as secondary orality and is repre sented by intercommunication and mediation. Paper media fragments the writing class process, but the use of electronic media provides continuity through non-me diation and hyper-mediation, allowing it to proceed efficiently. The class example was column writing, which allows you to carry out the entire writing process. In the column writing class design, it was planned to be divided into related classes, main classes, presentation classes, and evaluation. In this class, we looked at the use of electronic media in collecting data for the 9th week and constructing a column summary table for the 10th week. In collecting data, we were able to find papers, books, and internet resources, practice annotation meth ods, and organize references. After constructing an outline, immediate feedback was provided. The class evaluation examined the efficient aspects of writing classes using elec tronic media through the instructor’s evaluation of class results and student surveys. The instructor said that many students reached the ‘above’ level of learning goals through three rounds of feedback and writing practice using electronic media, and students had no objection to writing and planning using electronic media, and the ease of editing and writing. It was considered efficient in terms of speed and ease of self-editing. However, the readability of the feedback and how to use the program were viewed as areas that needed improvement. In order to stabilize writing classes using electronic media in university educa tion, it is urgent to prepare educational technicians and change and revise educa tional content.

Black Campaign tactics in Shaping Perception Voter Beginner (Case Study: Helvetia Village, Medan Sunggal District , North Sumatera)

A black campaign can be interpreted as a deliberate attempt to undermine an opponent using baseless negative arguments. Traditionally, black campaigns were conducted through whisper campaigns, spreading rumors from person to person. However, these campaigns have become more sophisticated with the use of electronic media. This study employs a qualitative method, conducting interviews and referencing additional journal sources. The research findings indicate that black campaigns are not only manifested in the form of posters or banners, as observed in the village of Srigading, but also frequently occur on social media. Social media exerts a significant impact on society, especially among younger generations who are the primary consumers. The influence of social media as an educational communication medium allows users to express opinions and share information with one another.

Electronic Media Use and Sleep Quality: Updated Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

This paper explores the widely discussed relationship between electronic media use and sleep quality, indicating negative effects due to various factors. However, existing meta-analyses on the topic have some limitations. The study aims to analyze and compare the impacts of different digital media types, such as smartphones, online games, and social media, on sleep quality. Adhering to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, the study performed a systematic meta-analysis of literature across multiple databases, including Web of Science, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, PubMed, Science Direct, Scopus, and Google Scholar, from January 2018 to October 2023. Two trained coders coded the study characteristics independently. The effect sizes were calculated using the correlation coefficient as a standardized measure of the relationship between electronic media use and sleep quality across studies. The Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software (version 3.0) was used to perform the meta-analysis. Statistical methods such as funnel plots were used to assess the presence of asymmetry and a p-curve test to test the p-hacking problem, which can indicate publication bias. Following a thorough screening process, the study involved 55 papers (56 items) with 41,716 participants from over 20 countries, classifying electronic media use into "general use" and "problematic use." The meta-analysis revealed that electronic media use was significantly linked with decreased sleep quality and increased sleep problems with varying effect sizes across subgroups. A significant cultural difference was also observed in these effects. General use was associated with a significant decrease in sleep quality (P<.001). The pooled effect size was 0.28 (95% CI 0.21-0.35; k=20). Problematic use was associated with a significant increase in sleep problems (P≤.001). The pooled effect size was 0.33 (95% CI 0.28-0.38; k=36). The subgroup analysis indicated that the effect of general smartphone use and sleep problems was r=0.33 (95% CI 0.27-0.40), which was the highest among the general group. The effect of problematic internet use and sleep problems was r=0.51 (95% CI 0.43-0.59), which was the highest among the problematic groups. There were significant differences among these subgroups (general: Qbetween=14.46, P=.001; problematic: Qbetween=27.37, P<.001). The results of the meta-regression analysis using age, gender, and culture as moderators indicated that only cultural difference in the relationship between Eastern and Western culture was significant (Qbetween=6.69; P=.01). All funnel plots and p-curve analyses showed no evidence of publication and selection bias. Despite some variability, the study overall confirms the correlation between increased electronic media use and poorer sleep outcomes, which is notably more significant in Eastern cultures.

Night-time use of electronic devices, fear of missing out, sleep difficulties, anxiety, and well-being in UK and Spain: a cross-cultural comparison

Electronic devices such as smartphones have become a primary part of young people's lives. Fear of missing out seems to influence the ability to set boundaries around sleep time. This study aims to explore (1) the use of electronic media devices in pre-sleep time, quality of sleep, anxiety, and well-being in females and males’ university students in the UK and Spain, (2) whether university students’ fear of missing out (FoMO) is associated with a higher usage of electronic devices at night-time by gender. A cross-sectional, quantitative design through Qualtrics.com was used. Samples were formed by N = 159 British participants, and N = 172 Spanish. Findings from this study suggest that fear of missing out in females is a predictor, in both countries, of electronic devices usage at night-time but not in males. Night-time usage of electronic devices is a predictor of: higher sleep difficulties in British males and females and in Spanish females, higher FoMO in females from both countries but not in males, and higher negative experiences in Spanish females. Night-time usage of electronic devices did not predict satisfaction with life or loneliness. There is a lack in the literature examining general electronic devices usage habits during night-time, fear of missing out, well-being and mental health, a lack of cross-cultural studies and that consider well-being not with positive or negative factors but from a broad perspective of the construct. Findings suggest the necessity to evaluate students’ levels of FoMO in clinical practice, especially in females, and to incorporate this construct in prevention and intervention programs.

THE EFFECT OF DIGITALIZATION EDUCATION USING ELECTRONIC LEARNING MEDIA ON STUDENT LEARNING PATTERNS

Science and Technology (IPTEK) is developing very rapidly in various fields, one of which is in the world of education which is known as the digitalization of education. One of the characteristics of digitalization of education is the use of electronic learning media in learning. Examples of electronic learning media that have been widely developed among students include online simulations using Phet Colorado, digital pocket books, virtual classes using video conference, and others. The digitalization of education has an impact on student learning patterns. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct research to determine use of electronic learning media as a form of digitalization of education on student learning patterns. The research uses a descriptive qualitative method using literature study. Digitalization of education provides many benefits to students' learning patterns. Based on the results and discussion, it was found that digitalization of education has an effect on student learning patterns, namely that learning is more interactive and efficient because it can be done anywhere and at any time. However, it should be noted that in the digital era there needs to be a role for families, teachers and the community to supervise and direct students in using technology.

When and what: A longitudinal study on the role of screen time and activities in adolescent sleep

ObjectivesPrevious research has highlighted a link between electronic media use and sleep outcomes, but the nuanced impacts of screen use at different time of day and activities on adolescent sleep are underexplored. Methods831 participants underwent online assessment three times with interval of three months regarding their screen time and activities at specific times of the day, daytime sleepiness was assessed with the Epworth Sleepiness Scale, and sleep outcomes were assessed with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Insomnia Severity Index. The associations between time spent on various screen activities, and sleep outcomes were examined respectively after controlling for inter-individual differences using the Random Intercept Cross-Lagged Panel Model models and LMMs. ResultsThe RI_CLPM model revealed that both electronic screen time during daytime and after lights off in the evening in Wave1 negatively predicted the sleep quality in Wave2; the nighttime screen time before lights off in Wave1 significantly negatively predicted the seventy of insomnia in Wave2. Whereas no cross-lag and predictive effects of sleep outcomes on screen time were revealed. Moreover, daytime screen exposure, including T.V. watching and social media use, and nighttime music listening were negatively associated with sleep quality. Conversely, nighttime screen time of shopping and working/studying positively influenced sleep quality. Additionally, daytime screen time of T.V. viewing was positively associated with increased insomnia severity, whereas nighttime work/study-related screen time negatively affected insomnia severity. Nighttime screen time of music listening negatively predicted daytime sleepiness. ConclusionsThe current findings contributed to the existing literature suggesting that the effects of electronic screen time on sleep depended on both the time of day and type of screen activities.

Connections between Parental Phubbing and Electronic Media Use in Young Children: The Mediating Role of Parent-Child Conflict and Moderating Effect of Child Emotion Regulation.

In this digital age, where parental attention is often diverted by digital engagement, the phenomenon of "parental phubbing," defined as parents ignoring their children in favor of mobile devices, is scrutinized for its potential impact on child development. This study, utilizing questionnaire data from 612 parents and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with moderated mediation, examines the potential association between parental phubbing and young children's electronic media use. The findings revealed a correlation between parental phubbing and increased electronic media use in children. Parent-child conflict, informed by instances of parental phubbing, was identified as a partial mediator in this relation. Notably, children's emotion regulation emerged as a moderating factor, with adept regulation linked to reduced adverse effects of parental phubbing and improved relational harmony. These findings underscore the importance of parental awareness of their digital behaviors and the benefits of fostering robust parent-child relationships and supporting children's emotional regulation to nurture well-adjusted "digital citizens" in the contemporary media landscape.
