Not so Different? Student and Professional Perceptions of Mobile Phone Etiquette in Meetings
Towner, Emil B.; Everett, Heidi L.; Klemz, Bruce R.
Business and Professional Communication Quarterly, v82 n3 p317-336 Sep 2019
Previous studies have noted the difficulties students have in understanding and adapting to professional workforce policies, especially mobile device usage and e-etiquette. This study focuses on determining how closely students and working professionals align in their perceptions of appropriate mobile phone usage during business meetings. After comparing the 476 student responses from our survey with a previous study, we found that student and professional perceptions aligned frequently; however, gender, age, and year in school influence student perceptions. The article concludes with suggestions for teaching and future research.
