Abstract:
Objective: This study investigates (a) whether job commitment and family commitment moderate the positive association between flexible working-time arrangements and work hours, and (b) whether childless women and men and mothers and fathers with the same levels of job and family commitment work equally long hours with flexible working-time arrangements. Background: As working-time flexibility increases at many workplaces due to digital technologies and work overload, so too does the risk of working longer hours. Although previous research has neglected job and family commitment as potential moderators of the relationship between working-time flexibility and long working hours, it has found gender inequalities in working hours among employees with flexible working-time arrangements, which have been attributed inter alia to men’s higher commitment to work and lower commitment to family. Method: Multivariate analyses were conducted based on German Family Panel (pairfam) data for 2018, 2019, and 2020. The sample comprised data from 4,568 employee-years, 1,666 part-time employee-years, and 2,902 full-time employee-years. Results: Among full-time employees, only those with high job commitment and low family commitment worked longer hours with employer-driven flexibility and working-time autonomy. Mothers with these arrangements worked fewer hours than childless women, childless men, and fathers, unless they had the same levels of job and family commitment as the latter three groups. Conclusion: These results suggest, first, that among full-time employees with flexible working-time arrangements, job and family commitment are driving factors for working long hours; second, that gender differences in work hours are shaped by parental status; and third, that these differences are due, at least in part, to differences in connectedness to job and family roles.

Abstract:
The study aimes to develop and validate Digital Literacy Scale (DLS) based on Chen’s (2015) theoretical framework which includes nine dimensions: communication, collaboration, critical thinking, creativity, citizenship, character, curation, copyright, and connectedness. A question pool consisting of 62 items based on the nine dimensions of digital literacy was generated on a 5-point Likert-type scale. Content validity of the question pool was sought from experts in terms of clarity of items, language understanding, and relevance. SPSS and AMOS were used for statistical analysis. Using a sample of 349 university students, Exploratory Factor Analysis was employed for reliability analysis, construct validation, and factor structure of the scale. EFA confirms the nine dimensions; however, some items were deleted during this process. Finally, Confirmatory Factor Analysis was employed to check the reliability and validity of the factor structure by using a second sample (n=442). CFA showed that all the values were within the acceptable range (Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin 0.886, the total variance explained 62.87%, Cronbach Alpha 0.894, and the goodness of fit 0.924). Thus a standardized DLS consisting of 36 items and 9 factors (communication, copyright, critical thinking, character, citizenship, curation, connectedness, creativity, and collaboration) was finalized. DLS is a psychometrically sound, reliable, and valid measurement tool that can be used to measure digital literacy.

Abstract:
Abstract While the importance of social connectedness in the lives of older adults is well-established, more comprehensive evidence is needed regarding its real-world operation. This study utilizes Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA), increasingly employed in social and health sciences, to capture real-time social interactions in everyday environments, aiming to conduct an integrative review to understand multifactorial components of social connectedness and identify implementation strategies for older adults. Five databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL, and PsycINFO) were searched to retrieve studies published up to the year 2023. Of the 2,208 studies identified, 21 were selected for final analysis. Our analysis focused on identifying the multifactorial components of social connectedness (structural, functional, and quality) and assessment of EMA methods and participant adherence to the EMA. The components of social connectedness using EMA included the following: structural components such as social contacts or interactions (n=18), loneliness (n=9) as a functional component, and quality components, such as quality of social interactions (n=3). Additionally, as a context for understanding social connectedness, location at the time of assessment, and physical (e.g., pain, fatigue) and psychological states (e.g., anxiety, depression) were evaluated. Data were mostly collected using an app on digital devices (e.g., smartphone), with assessments conducted 5-6 times per day for 5 to 21 days, achieving an adherence rate of over 70%. Findings of this review highlight the current state of science in measuring social connectedness in older adults through EMA, focusing on its structural, functional, and quality components, and indicating its feasibility in real-world contexts.

Abstract:
This study examines the connectedness between G7 indices, Bitcoin, and oil during the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on daily data from January 1, 2016 to April 1, 2021, a vector auto-regression model and an impulse response function are employed to illustrate the time path of these assets following own and cross-shocks. Our study exhibits the considerable effect of the pandemic on increasing directional causalities and time-varying connectedness between G7 indices, Bitcoin, and oil. The findings indicate that G7 indices’ own shocks almost immediately lower forecasts of stock return urging the diversification to reduce risk. Moreover, the significant negative response of oil to shocks amid the pandemic reflects its high vulnerability during mitigated periods. Unlike other countries, we find a relative resilience of Bitcoin to S&P 500 shocks, and we consequently recommend Bitcoin as a diversifier to Americaninvestors during the pandemic. Our results are useful for both investors and policymakers who need to think ahead, rather than waiting to have a downside G7 returns movement in turbulent periods.

Abstract:
This study is designed to explore the level of EFL students’ digital literacy in using technologies to support their learning activities. The researcher employed a survey method in gaining the perspectives of one hundred and seven students from the English education department in one of the Islamic universities in Bengkulu. The researcher distributed the survey of digital literacy scale to be filled out by the respondents to get the data. The results were analyzed quantitatively using simple descriptive statistics by calculating the average value of all answers from thirty-six question items. The findings revealed that the students’ digital literacy level was a good category, with an average score of 3.01. Moreover, the students were considered to have a good level of digital literacy overall. On the contrary, they still had low improvement, particularly in areas namely, critical thinking, connectedness, and creativity. Therefore, teachers ought to pay more attention to such issues because they are crucial, particularly for students to achieve the main components of the 4Cs (critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication) in 21st-century learning.

Abstract:
Background The COVID-19 pandemic brought digital practices and engagement to the forefront of society, which were based on behavioral changes associated with adhering to different government mandates. Further behavioral changes included transitioning from working in the office to working from home, with the use of various social media and communication platforms to maintain a level of social connectedness, especially given that many people who were living in different types of communities, such as rural, urban, and city spaces, were socially isolated from friends, family members, and community groups. Although there is a growing body of research exploring how technology is being used by people, there is limited information and insight about the digital practices employed across different age cohorts living in different physical spaces and residing in different countries. Objective This paper presents the findings from an international multisite study exploring the impact of social media and the internet on the health and well-being of individuals in different countries during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods Data were collected via a series of online surveys deployed between April 4, 2020, and September 30, 2021. The age of respondents varied from 18 years to over 60 years across the 3 regions of Europe, Asia, and North America. On exploring the associations of technology use, social connectedness, and sociodemographic factors with loneliness and well-being through bivariate and multivariate analyses, significant differences were observed. Results The levels of loneliness were higher among respondents who used social media messengers or many social media apps than among those who did not use social media messengers or used ≤1 social media app. Additionally, the levels of loneliness were higher among respondents who were not members of an online community support group than among those who were members of an online community support group. Psychological well-being was significantly lower and loneliness was significantly higher among people living in small towns and rural areas than among those living in suburban and urban communities. Younger respondents (18-29 years old), single adults, unemployed individuals, and those with lower levels of education were more likely to experience loneliness. Conclusions From an international and interdisciplinary perspective, policymakers and stakeholders should extend and explore interventions targeting loneliness experienced by single young adults and further examine how this may vary across geographies. The study findings have implications across the fields of gerontechnology, health sciences, social sciences, media communication, computers, and information technology.

Abstract:
COVID-19 shocked cities around the world and revealed the vulnerability of urban lives and functions. Most cities experienced a catastrophic disturbance that has lasted for a long time. Planning plays a critical role in responding efficiently to this crisis and enabling rapid functional recovery in the post-disaster era. Cities that have implemented digitalization initiatives and programs are likely to have more capacity to react appropriately. Specifically, digitalized cities could ensure the well-being of their residents and maintain continuity of urban functions. This research aims to analyze the role of technology in crisis management in the last two decades and provide appropriate policy recommendations for dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic. Systematic literature review and subjective content analysis are employed to investigate the effects of technology on community well-being and making cities more resilient in past crises. This study shows that different technology-driven policies and actions enable crisis management, enhance community well-being, and increase urban resilience. Technology has enhanced coping and recovery capacities by increasing participation and social connectedness, enhancing physical and mental health and maintaining the functionality of education and economic systems. These have been achieved through various solutions and technologies such as social media, telehealth, tracking and monitoring systems, sensors and locational applications, teleworking systems, etc. These solutions and technologies have also been used during the COVID-19 pandemic to enhance community well-being and sustain urban functions. However, technology deployment might have adverse effects such as social exclusion, digital divide, privacy and confidentiality violation, political bias and misinformation dissemination, and inefficient remote working and education. It is suggested that to mitigate these side effects, policymakers should liberate the process of digitalization, increase the accessibility to digital services, and enhance digital literacy.

Abstract:
Background The overall pandemic created enormous pressure on long-term care workers (LTCWs), making them particularly vulnerable to mental disorders. Despite this, most of the available evidence on professional well-being during COVID-19 has exclusively focused on frontline health care workers. Objective This study aimed to identify the long-term psychological needs of LTCWs derived from the COVID-19 pandemic and to explore barriers and facilitators related to digital mental health tools. This is part of a project that seeks to develop a digital mental health intervention to reduce psychological distress in this population group. Methods We performed a qualitative study with a rapid research approach. Participants were LTCWs of the autonomous community of Catalonia. We conducted 30 semistructured interviews between April and September 2022. We used a qualitative content analysis method with an inductive-deductive approach. Results The period of the pandemic with the highest mental health burden was the COVID-19 outbreak, with almost all workers having experienced some form of emotional distress. Emotional distress persisted over time in more than half of the participants, with fatigue and nervousness being the main emotions expressed at the time of the interview. High workload, the feeling that pandemic times are not over, and poor working conditions that have remained since then have been the most frequently expressed determinants of such emotions. Potential barriers and facilitators to engagement with digital tools were also identified in terms of previous experience and beliefs of the target population, possibilities for the integration of a digital tool into daily life, preferences regarding the level of guidance, the possibility of social connectedness through the tool, and privacy and confidentiality. The identified factors may become especially relevant in the context of the pandemic remission phase. Conclusions More than 2 years after the pandemic outbreak, emotional distress is still relevant. The persistent burden of psychological distress points to a need for institutions to take action to improve working conditions and promote employees’ well-being. Considering factors that act as barriers and facilitators for the use of digital mental health tools, it is important to develop tailored tools that could offer valuable support to this population during and after a pandemic.

Abstract:
The phenomenon of retail therapy, where shopping is used as a method to improve mood and alleviate stress, has gained significant attention across various disciplines such as psychology, marketing, and sociology. This literature review aims to explore the emotional dimensions of retail therapy and its function as a form of emotional communication. Research indicates that retail therapy is driven by emotional needs, where individuals use shopping to express, manage, and communicate their emotions. Key findings highlight that retail therapy provides immediate mood improvement and can aid in long-term emotional regulation. The act of shopping, influenced by internal emotional states and external stimuli like advertisements and social media, serves as a coping mechanism for dealing with stress and negative emotions. Social interactions during shopping, whether with friends or store staff, enhance the emotional benefits by providing support and a sense of connectedness. Moreover, digital communication and social media significantly shape retail therapy experiences, influencing consumer behavior through online reviews, social interactions, and marketing strategies. The scoping review methodology employed in this research allows for a comprehensive analysis of existing studies, identifying gaps and providing insights into the multifaceted role of retail therapy in emotional regulation and communication. Overall, retail therapy emerges as a complex, emotionally driven behavior that offers significant psychological benefits, emphasizing the need for further research to understand its impact on consumer well-being and behavior.

Abstract:
This study uses a descriptive phenomenology approach to explore the lived experiences of senior high school students during the era of social media trends. The sample for this research is high school students from North Palawan who actively follow social media trends and are generally aged 15-18 years. Purposive sampling was employed to choose participants, and semi-structured interviews were conducted to gather data. The interviews were documented with consent from the participants, and the researchers determined the level of data saturation. The data were thematic, and the experiences of the senior high school students were themed as follows: perceived benefits of social media use, emotional and psychological experiences of social media use, and effects of social media trends on academic performance and well-being. The study revealed that senior high school students perceive social media use as having several benefits, such as self-expression, sharing of information, and social connectedness. Social media use also has emotional and psychological effects, which can positively and negatively impact senior high school students’ well-being. Adverse effects of social media use can include cyberbullying, online harassment, and social comparison. The study also found that social media trends can significantly affect senior high school student’s academic success and general well-being. Therefore, it is essential to implement strategies that encourage responsible social media use and well-being among students to help them navigate the digital world and thrive academically and emotionally.

Abstract:
Ces dernières années, nous observons un passage des lieux de travail physiques vers des environnements hybrides et à distance, entraînant l'adoption d'environnements numériques de travail (Malhotra, 2021). Bien que ces derniers augmentent la productivité, ils présentent des défis tels que la déconnexion et le désengagement des employés (Harter, 2023). Pour y remédier, les organisations tentent de renforcer l'identification organisationnelle et l'engagement en utilisant des plateformes numériques centrées sur les employés. Étant donné le rôle crucial de l'identité dans la promotion de l'engagement et de la performance, cette thèse examine le phénomène de l'identité numérique, qui se réfère à l'identification de soi avec des outils numériques (i.e. IT identity, ITID) (Carter, 2020).Notre étude se focalise sur comment l'utilisation par les employés d'une plateforme numérique de valorisation de la marque employeur par les salariés (Employee Advocacy, EA), qui permet aux employés de défendre, soutenir ou recommander leur organisation à leurs réseaux, est influencée par leurs perceptions de l'ITID. L'EA favorise la ré-identification avec l'organisation et peut exploiter la crédibilité des employés afin d'améliorer la réputation de la marque, d'étendre sa portée et de stimuler la croissance de l'entreprise (Silbermann, 2021). La littérature de l'EA couvre sa définition et son objectif, mais peu d'études, notamment dans le domaine des systèmes d'information (SI), ont examiné comment l'ITID pourrait impacter l'utilisation des plateformes facilitant les programmes d'EA. Cette thèse comble cette lacune en théorisant les antécédents et les conséquences de l'ITID dans le contexte de l'utilisation des plateformes d'EA à travers deux essais.Le premier essai étudie l'existence de l'ITID au sein des plateformes d'EA et s'appuie sur la théorie de l'ITID ainsi que sur les littératures de l'utilisation continue et de l'acceptation des SI pour théoriser deux antécédents de l'expérience utilisateur (fonctionnelles et émotionnelles) de l'ITID. Le deuxième essai utilise la théorie de l'ITID et la perspective des besoins et affordances pour théoriser comment l'ITID influence les résultats clés des plateformes d'EA, en conceptualisant l'engagement numérique des employés (DEE), qui inclut la promotion numérique des employés (Digital Employee Avocacy, DEA) et la connectivité numérique des employés (Digital Employee Connectedness, DEC). Les deux essais adoptent une approche mixte séquentielle, en commençant par une étude quantitative suivie d'une étude qualitative. La première étude de chaque essai utilise les avis des employés sur les plateformes d'EA comme données (N=1360) pour tester les modèles théoriques, tandis que la deuxième étude de chaque essai repose sur des entretiens semi-structurés réalisés auprès d'experts (N=12) afin de valider et d'identifier les conditions limites à nos modèles.Les résultats confirment notre modèle théorique dans le premier essai, mais, ceci est modéré par des facteurs tels que l'identité de rôle, l'auto-efficacité en matière de médias sociaux et la mise en place structurée de la plateforme. Les résultats du deuxième essai confirment également notre modèle. Toutefois, nous proposons que ces relations soient modérées par des conditions limites telles que le renforcement de la gestion du changement, les leaders proactifs et l'image de l'organisation. En particulier, les essais améliorent notre compréhension de l'ITID dans l'utilisation des technologies numériques de travail et soulignent son importance dans la réalisation à la fois des résultats sociaux de DEC et des instrumentaux de DEA. Les résultats offrent également des perspectives pratiques aux organisations cherchant à mettre en œuvre et à optimiser les plateformes d'EA afin de renforcer l'engagement numérique des employés via l'introduction des espaces numériques de travail
In recent years, we see a shift from traditional physical workplaces to hybrid and remote environments, leading to the adoption of digital workplaces (Malhotra, 2021). Despite their instrumental value such as increased employee productivity, digital workplaces present challenges including employee disconnection and disengagement (Qin & Men, 2022). To address this, organizations attempt to strengthen organizational identification and engagement using people-centric digital workplace platforms. Given the critical role of identity in fostering engagement and performance, in this thesis we examine the phenomenon of IT identity, which refers to positive self-identification with information technology (ITID) (Carter, 2020).Our study examines how employees' use of a digital workplace platform called Employee Advocacy (EA) platform- which enables employees to defend, support, or recommend their organization to their networks- is influenced by the their ITID perceptions. EA fosters re-identification with the organization and is increasingly recognized for its ability to leverage employees' credibility to enhance brand reputation, extend reach, and drive business growth (Silbermann, 2021). While the literature on EA covers its definition and purpose, few studies—especially within Information Systems (IS)—have examined how ITID might impact platform use that facilitate EA programs. This thesis addresses that gap by theorizing the antecedents and outcomes of ITID for the EA platform use context. We do this via two essays.The first essay examines the existence of ITID within EA platforms and leverages ITID theory and IS continuous use and acceptance literature to theorize the two user experience antecedents (functional and emotional) of ITID. The second essay also leverages ITID theory and needs-affordances features perspective to theorize how ITID influences key outcomes of EA platforms- conceptualizing digital employee engagement (DEE), which includes digital employee advocacy (DEA) and digital employee connectedness (DEC). Both essays use a sequential mixed-method approach, starting with a quantitative study followed by a qualitative study. The first study within both essays uses employee reviews of EA platforms as its data (N=1360) to test the theoretical models, while the second study within both essays uses semi-structured interview data obtained from experts of EA platform (N=12) to provide validation and identify boundary conditions to our theorized models.The findings confirm our theorized model in essay one, however, it is moderated by factors such as role identity, social media self-efficacy, and structured platform launch. The results of the second essay also confirm our model. However, we propose that these relationships are moderated by boundary conditions such as change management reinforcement, proactive leaders, organization image. In particular, the essays advance our understanding of IT identity when using digital workplace technologies and its relevance in achieving both humanistic outcomes of digital employee connectedness and instrumental goals of digital employee advocacy. The findings also offer several practical insights for organizations seeking to implement and optimize EA platforms to enhance digital employee engagement through the introduction of the digital workplace

Abstract:
The modern-day smartphones are the result of the technological progression that is happening in this digital world. This technological advancement has brought an incremental augmentation where these were not perceived as critical by the smartphone users. Also, the computational capability and networking competence has been dragooned constantly to maintain the momentum with the ever-expanding workload demands. This scenario has endorsed the smart gadgets such as smartphones and tablets to accomplish the growing complex challenges. In this digital era, the next generation users are substituting the conventional way of preference such as the personal computers and laptops with smartphone for the social connectedness, e-commerce, financial transaction, market updates, latest news, or even editing images. Users willingly install various mobile apps on to their smartphone and consequently providing their valuable and sensitive personal information to their service providers without thinking and knowing the security lapses and repercussions. Considering the fact, the smartphones' size and its portability, these devices are much more susceptible of being stolen, becoming jeopardized, or being exploited for various cyber-attacks and other malevolent activities. Essentially, the hackers look forward to the new mobile vulnerabilities so that they exploit the revealed vulnerability once a newer edition of the respective mobile operating system is released. In view of the fact that the smartphones are too vulnerable to various exploits, the necessity for a digital investigation entrained to establish a separate domain named mobile forensics. This established forensic domain is specialized in acquiring, extracting, analyzing, and reporting the evidence that is obtained from the smartphone devices so that the exploiting artifacts and its respective actions are determined and located. This chapter puts forward the various processes involved with the mobile forensics that can be employed for examining the evidences of various cyber incidents. Furthermore, it discusses the various vulnerabilities with the iOS and Android mobile operating systems and how they are being exploited in detail. The chapter also discusses the various approaches of data extraction and the respective industry standard for the tools that are being utilized for the same.
