Project description

Individuals connect with their network anytime and anyplace. Connection habits are triggered by cues. In this project, we will identify ‘connection cues’ and make individuals aware of these cues and their own cue sensitivity.
Our findings will result in a profound understanding of compulsive media use and how to reduce adverse consequences, such as stress, decreased school performance, and traffic accidents.
