Objective: To measure the interrater reliability of assessing the frequency of vegetable intake using mobile photos and descriptions. Design: Repeated measures design. Setting: A Midwestern university. Participants: Undergraduate students (N = 165). Measurable Outcome/Analysis: Number of times each of these vegetable subgroups were consumed daily:…

This study examined the effects of a mobile camera versus a stationary camera on scores for Rubrics 6-9 of the Elementary Education edTPA Task 2. Scores on these rubrics are primarily based on video evidence for a positive classroom environment, engaging students in learning, deepening student learning, and subject-specific pedagogy. Over two…

Linking survey and social media data has gained popularity. However, obtaining consent from respondents to link social media is a known challenge. Using data from a nationally representative survey of the U.K. this study investigated whether respondents' a) activity frequency, b) activity variety and c) technical skills with smartphones are…

During early adolescence children are increasingly using their smartphones not only throughout the day, but also before or even during the nighttime. Prior research has revealed that children's school performance might suffer because of late-night smartphone use. To gain a further understanding of the consequences of nighttime smartphone use on…

Mobile learning applications are being developed to support the teaching and learning process. The lack of an accepted methodology for developing these applications motivated the establishment of a design science research process for developing mobile learning applications. Design science methodology from the information systems domain was…

Associations between adolescent social media use and well-being are inconclusive, and studies using rigorous methodologies and objective measures are needed. Additionally, attention on what individual differences may moderate linkages between social media and well-being is necessary. We tested 1) how daily social media use (assessed via…

Phubbing harms relationships and reduces well-being of phubbees. However, limited research has explored the potential causes and underlying mechanisms for phubbing; and an important risk factor, social anxiety, has been largely ignored from previous studies. The present study employed a moderated mediation model to examine whether social anxiety…

Mobile learning has gained significant recognition for its beneficial effects on learning across various dimensions. Nonetheless, ensuring consistent learner acceptance of mobile learning remains a critical factor to address. This meta-analysis study is the first comprehensive examination of critical antecedents impacting learners' perceived…

This study investigates smartphone addiction prevalence among Tunisian middle school students and its associations with sleep quality, fatigue, cognitive functioning, and academic achievement. Using structured interviews, we collected demographic data, grade point averages, and phone usage details from 1015 students aged 14-16. Participants also…

In children's early years, they frequently pretend, create and take on roles while engaging in the dramatic play area where symbols, language and culture are spontaneously developed and applied. Although abundant research has been conducted on sociodramatic play incorporating digital tools and using props, previous research has given less…

Objective: The purpose of this study was to measure college student athletes' nutrition knowledge and behavior before and after a text message-based educational intervention. Participants: Athletes (n = 35) participated by completing a pre- and post-intervention survey. Methods: This survey gathered information on ability to identify carbohydrate…

The increasing popularity of mobile devices as alternative tools for learning has led to the adoption of virtual laboratory simulation (VLab) to enhance practical learning experiences. This paper introduces an interactive mobile learning application designed to facilitate medical students in learning ear anatomy using a three-dimensional model.…

Smartphone addiction and academic burnout are typical psycho-behavioral problems among adolescents. Extant studies tend to examine them from a single-problem perspective, while research on their co-occurrence is lacking. Moreover, research has been prone to focus on the impacts of the negative sides of smartphone use on the two problems, ignoring…

Behavior-change theories reliably explain behavior, but they often lack messaging recommendations to modify behavior. The Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) could benefit from clear, replicable messaging strategies to target its constructs of attitudes, social norms, and perceived behavioral control (PBC) about a behavior (Ajzen, 1991). Habit Theory…

Mobile phone addiction (MPA) has become a prevalent issue among adolescents, which is closely associated with cognitive failure. The present study seeks to explore the network structure of the association between MPA and cognitive failure among adolescents by network analysis, as well as the mediating roles of self-control and mind wandering by…
