Abstract

People are generally poor reporters of time spent using digital technology. Advancing smartphone features, such as the iOS Screen Time application, allow researchers to obtain more objective measurements of digital technology use. Truth and Bias models were used to test how self-reported social networking site use aligns with device-reported use as recorded by the iOS Screen Time app (N=1585). This study explored use across four major platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat) and examined how individual differences moderate biases in reports. Participants overestimated their use for all platforms at comparable levels. Moderation by individual differences was not consistent. These findings add to the growing call from researchers to utilize assessments other than self-reports in measuring digital technology use.

社交网站使用的自我报告与设备报告之间的关联:真理与偏见模型的应用。

人们通常不善于记录使用数字技术所花费的时间。先进的智能手机功能，如iOS屏幕时间应用程序，使研究人员能够获得更客观的数字技术使用测量。真相和偏见模型用于测试自我报告的社交网站使用情况与iOS屏幕时间应用程序记录的设备报告使用情况是否一致(N=1585)。这项研究探讨了四个主要平台(Facebook、Instagram、Twitter、Snapchat)的使用情况，并研究了个体差异如何缓和报告中的偏见。参与者高估了他们在可比水平上对所有平台的使用。个体差异的适度性并不一致。这些发现增加了越来越多的研究人员在衡量数字技术使用情况时使用评估而不是自我报告的呼声。

期刊介绍： Communication Methods and Measures aims to achieve several goals in the field of communication research. Firstly, it aims to bring attention to and showcase developments in both qualitative and quantitative research methodologies to communication scholars. This journal serves as a platform for researchers across the field to discuss and disseminate methodological tools and approaches. Additionally, Communication Methods and Measures seeks to improve research design and analysis practices by offering suggestions for improvement. It aims to introduce new methods of measurement that are valuable to communication scientists or enhance existing methods. The journal encourages submissions that focus on methods for enhancing research design and theory testing, employing both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Furthermore, the journal is open to articles devoted to exploring the epistemological aspects relevant to communication research methodologies. It welcomes well-written manuscripts that demonstrate the use of methods and articles that highlight the advantages of lesser-known or newer methods over those traditionally used in communication. In summary, Communication Methods and Measures strives to advance the field of communication research by showcasing and discussing innovative methodologies, improving research practices, and introducing new measurement methods.
