Abstract

Exploring an adverse impact of smartphone overuse on academic performance via health issues: a stimulus-organism-response perspective.

Promoting users’ intention to share online health articles on social media: The role of confirmation bias

“…Because our research was conducted in China, all the items of measuring the constructs were translated into Chinese through employing a translation committee approach (e.g., Chen, Chua, & Deng, 2018 ; Fu, Chen, & Zheng, 2020 ). To ensure the face validity of the items, the authors participated in the translation, all of whom were effectively bilingual in Mandarin and English.…”

“…First, regarding health literacy, it emphasizes that users should receive health education and master essential health and medical knowledge ( Institute of Medicine, 2004 ). Such knowledge can help them make informed health-related decisions, including healthcare services selection, disease prevention, and health promotion ( Fu, Chen, & Zheng, 2020 ; Nutbeam, 2000 ). Prior research also indicates that users who have high health literacy are more likely to share health information with others (e.g., Crook, Stephens, Pastorek, Mackert, & Donovan, 2016 ; Pian, Song, & Zhang, 2020 ).…”

Psychological impact of covid-19 crises on students through the lens of Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) model

“…The intervening processes and structures consist of perceptual, physiological, feeling, and thinking activities”. ( Fu et al, 2020 ) defined organism as, “internal processes and outcomes of the stimulus, usually mediating the relationship between stimulus and response”. Organism represents the internal emotion and psychological process after encountering the stimulus and here in the study organism refers to the student's emotional response towards the covid-19 crises.…”

Fear of COVID-19, loneliness, smartphone addiction, and mental wellbeing among the Turkish general population: a serial mediation model

“…Therefore, smartphones that provide access to the internet can be useful tools for accessing information concerning the COVID-19 pandemic and communicating with others while in quarantine (van Deursen 2020). On the other hand, when smartphones used excessively they can also contribute to maladjusted behaviours including procrastination and skipping daily work as well as to negative physical consequences such as insomnia and neck/back pain (Fu, Chen, and Zheng 2020;Kwon et al 2013aKwon et al , 2013b. Consequently, although smartphones make lives easier when used functionally (Fino and Mazzetti 2019;Gavali et al 2017), when used excessively, smartphone use may disrupt both physical and mental health among a small minority of individuals (Lapointe, Boudreau-Pinsonneault, and Vaghefi 2013;Oh and Kim 2020).…”
