Interested in…
a) taking theories out of the lab (and try to specify them to work irl)
b) computational methods (data donations, LLM content analysis)
c) media coping
d) all of the above?
Then our new HCR-paper is *just* for you! doi.org/10.1093/hcr/...

Ever wondered what researchers beyond #commsky have to say about autonomy in digital technology use (e.g., affordances, situations, context)?

What content do people watch when experiencing stressors? We matched data donations w/ content descriptions & linked them to diary surveys for an answer! Sadly rejected at #ica25 but proud of this collab w/ @felix-dietrich.de, @aliciagilbert.bsky.social, @leonardreinecke.bsky.social 👉 doi.org/n2z2

Abstract: Durch die fortlaufenden technischen Innovationen digitaler Medien ist Mediennutzung nicht mehr wie früher räumlich oder zeitlich beschränkt, sondern permanent möglich. Daraus ergeben sich Veränderungen im Nutzungsverhalten, das zunehmend parallel zu anderen Tätigkeiten sowie fragmentiert über den Tag hinweg stattfindet. Doch auch kognitive und motivationale Veränderungen entstehen beispielsweise durch soziale Erwartungen ständiger Erreichbarkeit, die an Mediennutzer:innen gerichtet werden. So entwickeln einige Mediennutzer:innen ein Mindset permanenter Verbundenheit sowie starke digitale Mediengewohnheiten. In dem Kapitel werden zentrale technische, verhaltensbezogene, kognitive sowie motivationale Veränderungen in der digitalen Medienlandschaft zusammengetragen. Anschließend werden deren Auswirkungen auf den Rezeptionsprozess dargestellt. Dies umfasst u. a. die Informationsverarbeitung und Selbstregulation während der Rezeption sowie neue soziale Rezeptionsmodi. Abschließend diskutiert das Kapitel Implikationen permanenter Verbundenheit für die selbstbestimmte Mediennutzung.
