“…Will the early adoption of PC and the Internet have any effect on face-to-face activities, organizational vitality, and centrality? In line with studies indicating a "novelty effect" of new technology (Henke & Donohue, 1986;Henke & Fontenot, 2007), it can be expected that early adoption of network technology will not have a significant effect on face-to-face activities, organizational vitality, or centrality. This does not necessarily mean that the use of technology has no effect, but that it becomes integrated into routine daily practice and is normalized.…”

“…However, in a 3-year follow-up of one such study, many of the negative effects initially indicated were no longer present (Kraut, Kiesler, Bonka, & Cummings, 2002). Some studies also indicate a "novelty effect" of new technology on individuals that eventually wears off (Henke & Donohue, 1986;Henke & Fontenot, 2007). In the initial stage of adopting new technology, these studies suggest, there is a reduction of time spent on other activities.…”

Does communication through the Internet strengthen local voluntary organizations? This question is investigated by analyzing sustainability, vitality, and the use of the Internet by Norwegian local voluntary organizations. Using quantitative data, analyses show that the use of the Internet by Norwegian voluntary organizations is widespread. Primarily, organizations appreciate the technology for its one-way aspect of communication and information distribution, rather than for aspects of many-to-many communication between organizations, members, and volunteers. Using data from two points in time, analyses show that organizations using the Internet have had a higher probability of achieving organizational growth than those who do not. Furthermore, these organizations are also more likely to hold internal meetings and to arrange other face-to-face activities. This article therefore concludes that rather than replacing traditional organizations and face-to-face activities, the Internet may strengthen their sustainability and vitality.

“…Mobile journalism is one of the fastest-growing areas of research in the 2010s (Henke;Donohue, 1986) and others. With the arrival of the Internet and especially the popularization of the first online media outlets, the focus of research on technology shifted to computers.…”

In 1994, the first web online media outlets were introduced in several countries around the world. Twenty-five years later, digital or online journalism is a confirmed reality and common practice in professional and academic circles. Based on an extensive bibliographic review, this article examines the main areas of academic research related to digital media at the global level in the last quarter of a century. It shows the lines of research on the history of journalism on the Internet, the forms of digital media, their languages and economic challenges. It also reviews the most widespread research theories and methods. The analysis confirms that research on digital journalism is a strong, ongoing discipline, despite the fact that several methodological and thematic challenges will need to be addressed in the next few years.

“…Previous studies have also suggested that any new technology benefits from a novelty effect. Individuals may change their behavioral patterns with regard to other activities at the initial stage of internet use, but as the novelty wears off, they are likely to return to more typical behavioral patterns (Henke and Donohue, 1986;Perse and Dunn, 1998). It was found in a study of fourth-graders new to the internet that 39 percent were willing to forego their favorite activities, including social activities and consumption of other media, to surf the internet at an initial stage (Henke, 1999).…”

This study examines the influence of internet adoption and internet usage on sociability and use of traditional media. With empirical data collected in Hong Kong between 2003 and 2005, it confirms that adoption and usage are two distinct processes, with different social impacts. It is found that, on average, internet users spend significantly less time on traditional media than nonusers, while both groups spend the same amount of time on social activities. Furthermore, users' sociability and use of traditional media are positively correlated with each other, while among nonusers there is no such correlation. When the spotlight is turned on internet users, a new measurement, called 'sophistication of internet usage', is employed to examine the impact of internet use on traditional media use and sociability. It is found in the study that internet use does not influence users' sociability and use of traditional media, regardless of the length of internet adoption history, which disconfirms the so-called 'novelty effect'.
