Contrary to expectations, longer smartphone usage in general and at home does not come at the expense of time spent outdoors. Moreover, outdoor environments were characterized by longer and more frequent virtual space engagement through smartphones, with suburban participants showing more process-oriented (e.g., games, streaming services) usage compared to city center adolescents. Gender differences were observed in some contexts, with girls showing a greater tendency to engage with social virtual activities and boys with process usage. Additionally, specific usage patterns were found to be associated with distinct environmental characteristics, including distance from home, green spaces and built area density. Our findings align with recent geographical research frameworks, such as fused and hybrid spaces, which theorize current virtual space as being intertwined with and inseparable from the physical space.

Although technical methods for facial de-identification have been developed, they often fail to reflect how users experience privacy and how it is shaped by the social contexts in which the images are shared. This study explores how users’ experiences vary depending on the degree of generative AI-based facial de-identification and the relationship between the viewer and the person in the image. We conducted a user study with 36 participants who evaluated modified versions of their own photos in neutral or negative social scenarios. Greater facial de-identification yielded stronger privacy control and a reduced sense of risk. However, when imagining an adversarial social connection, it increased privacy concerns and reduced trust, indicating that privacy judgment is highly contextual. Participants desired more control over how their image could be modified, as well as more customization options, while defining user groups based on social relationships. Based on these suggestions, we redesigned our system to offer more flexible and socially responsive privacy options. This study challenges a purely technical view of privacy, arguing that it is a social, interpretive, and dynamic process negotiated within specific relationships. Ultimately, our findings provide both empirical insights and practical design guidance for creating privacy-preserving systems that are more meaningfully aligned with the lived realities of users.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48257,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics","volume":"103 ","pages":"Article 102342"},"PeriodicalIF":8.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145579555","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We demonstrate that public sensemaking about AI is shaped by economic interests and cultural values of those involved. We analyze 3.8 million tweets posted by 1.6 million users across 117 countries in response to the public launch of ChatGPT in 2022. Our analysis shows how economic self-interest, proxied by occupational skill types in writing, programming, and mathematics, and national cultural orientations, as measured by Hofstede’s individualism, uncertainty avoidance, and power distance dimensions, shape who speaks, when they speak, and their stance toward ChatGPT. Roles requiring more technical skills, such as programming and mathematics, tend to engage earlier and express more positive stances, whereas writing-centric occupations join later with greater skepticism. At the cultural level, individualism predicts both earlier engagement and a more negative stance, and uncertainty avoidance reduces the prevalence of positive stances but does not delay when users first engage with ChatGPT. Aggregate sentiment trends mask the dynamics observed in our study. The shift toward a more critical stance regarding ChatGPT over time stems primarily from the entry of more skeptical voices rather than a change of heart among early adopters. Our findings underscore the importance of both the occupational background and cultural context in understanding public reactions to AI.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48257,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics","volume":"103 ","pages":"Article 102344"},"PeriodicalIF":8.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145579563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our findings indicate that edits frequently emphasize baby schema traits, such as enlarged eyes and softened facial contours, reinforcing their role in digital beauty standards.

Notably, the intensity of these edits is inversely correlated with regional economic development, suggesting that identity construction, social capital and expectation, and global beauty influences shape editing behaviors. This study contributes to the understanding of digital self-presentation by illustrating how global beauty ideals, particularly baby schema, are selectively adapted within specific cultural and economic contexts.

We introduce and discuss the concept of the <em>algorithmic spiral cycle</em>; a feedback loop in which platform logic and user interaction mutually reinforce affective urgency, selective exposure, and ideological closure. Three interlocking dynamics emerge from the analysis: (1) affective urgency, (2) narrative amplification, and (3) platform immersion. While TikTok offers novel opportunities for engagement and participatory science communication, its emphasis on virality and personalization often comes at the expense of deliberation, complexity, and informational diversity. This article contributes to emerging scholarship on climate communication, platform studies, and digital media governance by offering an empirical and conceptual framework for understanding how TikTok’s architecture mediates climate discourse.
