Abstract

In recent decades, mobile media and communication have become integral to human psychology, including how people think and feel. Although the popular press, parents, and educators often voice concerns about the integration of mobile media into everyday life (e.g., “smartphone addiction”), the growing body of scholarship in this area offers a mix of positive, negative, and conditional effects of mobile media use. This review article traverses this variegated scholarship by assembling cognitive and affective implications of mobile media and communication. It identifies information processing, offloading, spatial cognition, habit, attention, and phantom vibrations as cognitive themes, and feelings of pleasure, stress/anxiety, safety/security, connectedness, and control as affective themes. Along the way, it helps bring structure to this growing and interdisciplinary area of scholarship, ground psychological work on mobile media in theorizing on technological embedding, inform academic and public debates, and identify opportunities for future research.
移动媒体与传播中的思考与感受:认知与情感含义综述
近几十年来,移动媒体和通信已经成为人类心理的一部分,包括人们如何思考和感受。尽管大众媒体、家长和教育工作者经常表达对移动媒体融入日常生活的担忧(例如,“智能手机成瘾”),但这一领域越来越多的学者提出了移动媒体使用的积极、消极和条件影响。这篇综述文章通过整合移动媒体和通信的认知和情感含义来遍历这一多样化的学术研究。它将信息处理、卸载、空间认知、习惯、注意力和幻像振动确定为认知主题,将愉悦感、压力/焦虑、安全/保障、连通性和控制确定为情感主题。在此过程中,它有助于为这个不断增长的跨学科学术领域带来结构,为移动媒体的心理学工作奠定了技术嵌入理论的基础,为学术和公共辩论提供信息,并确定未来研究的机会。

期刊介绍: Review of Communication Research will publish an annual volume with comprehensive and authoritative reviews of the current state of the main topics and the most significant developments in the field of Communication. These comprehensive critical reviews will summarize the latest advances in the field, but also will root out errors and will provoke intellectual discussions among scholars. The journal seeks both evaluative (theorical) and quantitative (meta-analysis) papers that make a state of the art of issues in scientific communication. Integrative review articles that connect different areas of research are of special interest.
