Abstract:

Work-life balance refl ects an individual’s orientation across career roles and non-carrier life roles as an incompatible inter-role phenomenon. In the transition to an information-based global economy, the lines between work and home are blurring as technology reshapes the work place and the nature of home life evolves. Information technology (IT) has become a vital and integral part of every individual’s life. From a teenager who loves technologically advanced cum latest gadgets and an adult who is addicted of using cloud-computing technology as for data’s storing. The reasons for the omnipresent use of computer technology in the real world can best be determined by looking at how it is being used across the real world. Role of IT in balancing work-life is all about delivering ease, effi ciency and maintaining individual’s healthy environment. There are numerous roles of IT which makes us integrally prominent, smart and active, and makes an effective aura in between work-life. Role of IT in work-life balance has been an electrifying current investigation subject from the recent years; the purpose of the research role of IT in work-life balance shows the how IT makes individuals life convenient, promising, stressless, and relatively safe.

Abstract:

Purpose Most research on information and communication technologies (ICT) differences has been related to gender and ethnicity, and to a lesser extent religious affiliation. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to this field of research by situating the discussion in the context of British Muslims and extending current research into ICT differences beyond gender and ethnicity. Design/methodology/approach This paper explores the ICT differences in access and use by British Muslim teenage girls at Islamic faith schools, and ICTs’ perceived influence on learning. The qualitative research was undertaken by conducting 45 semi-structured interviews with British Muslim teenage girls in Islamic faith schools. Findings The study provides tentative findings that Islamic faith schools are not only framed by the wider diverse Muslim community, but also by the supplementary schooling of madrasahs. The findings suggest that the home use of ICTs was reinforced rather than compensated for by the Islamic faith schools. This seemed to inhibit many pupils’ access to online educational resources. The authors found that didactic instruction was prevalent and this provided tentative insights into the types of digital inequity experienced by many pupils. Originality/value The research into ICT differences in the UK adopted the premise that the unity in Muslim identity increasingly transcends ethnicity and gender in the Muslim community.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to investigate the association of affective temperament profiles and emotional and behavioural characteristics with Internet addiction among high school students. The study sample included 303 high school students. A sociodemographic characteristics data form, internet addiction scale (IAS), the strengths and difficulties questionnaire, and the temperament evaluation of Memphis, Pisa, Paris, and San Diego autoquestionnaire were used to collect data. Of the sample, 6.6% were found to be addicted to Internet. Having a computer in the home (P<0.001) and using the Internet for more than two years (P<0.001) were found to be related to higher scores on the IAS. The prevalence rate of anxious temperament for Internet addicts was more than that for nonaddicts (P<0.001). Dysthymic (r=0.199; P<0.01), cyclothymic (r=0.249; P<0.01), hyperthymic (r=0.156; P<0.01), irritable (r=0.254; P<0.01), and anxious (r=0.205; P<0.01) temperaments; conduct problems (r=0.146; P<0.05), hyperactivity-inattention (r=0.133; P<0.05), emotional symptoms (r=0.138; P<0.05), and total difficulties (r=0.160; P<0.01) were found to be correlated with IAS scores. According to these findings, there is a relation between the Internet addiction and affective temperament profiles, especially with anxious temperament. Furthermore, emotional and behavioural problems are more frequent in adolescents who have problematic Internet use.

Abstract:

In recent years, articles have been published on the non-visual effects of light, specifically the light emitted by the new luminaires with light emitting diodes (LEDs) and by the screens of televisions, computer equipment, and mobile phones. Professionals from the world of optometry have raised the possibility that the blue part of the visible light from sources that emit artificial light could have pernicious effects on the retina. The aim of this work is to analyze the articles published on this subject, and to use existing information to elucidate the spectral composition and irradiance of new LED luminaires for use in the home and in public spaces such as educational centers, as well as considering the consequences of the light emitted by laptops for teenagers. The results of this research show that the amount of blue light emitted by electronic equipment is lower than that emitted by modern luminaires and thousands of times less than solar irradiance. On the other hand, the latest research warns that these small amounts of light received at night can have pernicious non-visual effects on adolescents. The creation of new LED luminaires for interior lighting, including in educational centers, where the intensity of blue light can be increased without any specific legislation for its control, makes regulatory developments imperative due to the possible repercussions on adolescents with unknown and unpredictable consequences.

Abstract:

During the past decades media technologies for producing and consuming popular music have gone through major changes. The digitalization of older media and so-called new media has transformed the landscape for music use. Technological developments in radio, television, the internet, computers, mobile phones and mp3 players shape the ways in which popular music is consumed today. This article examines two intersecting aspects of how today's media landscapes are interwoven into and shape teenage girls' uses of popular music. First, it argues that media technologies shape the girls' uses of music in the context of their everyday lives and the spaces they inhabit. Second, media technologies take part in the girls' practices of gender. For example, through their relations with their brothers and new media technology in the home, the girls are negotiating how to be 'girls', 'daughters' and 'sisters'.

Abstract:

Over the last three decades, topics relating to young peoples leisure time have become increasingly more present in academic literature. Among the numerous studies that delve into this subject, results point towards a relationship between the way teenagers spend their leisure time and their gender. In this study we wanted to answer the question if gender differences were evident in the way secondary school students in Serbia spent their leisure time. This problem was not looked into in more detail among secondary school students in Serbia. We conducted a survey on a sample of 922 secondary school teenagers from the 1st to 4th grade (ages 15-19) from nine Serbian towns. Research in this field commonly uses the rating scale. In this paper we have constructed an instrument that represents a methodological innovation in approaching a particular set of problems. It was a questionnaire. The task was to name all the activities they participated in, and the time frame in which the activities took place, over the course of one weekday and the Saturday of the previous week. The activities which best differentiate these two groups of surveyed teenagers are: sports, studying, computer use, spending time at friends' homes and grooming. We did not discover differences in participating in creative activities while foreign studies show that such activities are more typical for girls.

Abstract:

Technology acceptance in private spaces has not received much attention, although users' behaviour may be different due to the space in which usage takes place. To address this gap, the present study proposed a model exploring individuals' values, users' perception of technology performance and attitudinal beliefs in relation to use behaviour and satisfaction when using smart technologies in their homes. The study employed a sample of 422 participants in the USA. Structural equation modelling was utilised to test the proposed hypotheses. The model provided robust results explaining factors underpinning the use of pervasive technology in private settings. Specifically, the study showed that hedonic and utilitarian beliefs are critical for the perception of task fit, whereas privacy and financial factors were found to be not significant. The fit between tasks and technology demonstrated a significant role in predicting perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, use behaviour, and satisfaction. Lastly, use behaviour showed a positive correlation with satisfaction.

Abstract:

Purpose. This study examines the relationship between smoking-related parental, family, and home factors with adolescents' cigarette use. Design. Cross-sectional surveys of adolescents, via a self-administered questionnaire in classrooms, and their parents, via a telephone interview, were conducted. Setting. Fifteen suburban and rural communities within Minnesota. Subjects. The study sample included 8th, 9th, and 10th grade public school students and their parents. Measures. The dependent variable was monthly tobacco use among students. The independent measures were parental, family, and home smoking-related characteristics. There were 1343 parent-child dyads with completed surveys. Results. The final, multivariate logistic regression model found the following variables to be independently related to higher smoking rates among adolescents: child's grade (odds ratio [OR] = 3.03 for 10th vs. 8th), parents' permissiveness of adult smoking (OR = 1.80), parents' having higher normative estimates of how many people smoke (OR = 1.70), parents' decreased likelihood of punishing their teenager for smoking (OR = 1.65), smoking by an adult living in the home (OR = 1.99), and sibling smoking (OR = 8.95). Lack of communication about consequences for breaking family smoking rules was associated with lower smoking rates among adolescents (OR = .49). Conclusion. The results of this study highlight the importance of parental smoking norms and attitudes and smoking role models in the home. It is important that smoking prevention strategies target and include the entire family. Limitations of the study are its cross-sectional design and that the sample was primarily white.

This study examined the frequency of students' self-reported use of virus detectors on their personal computers at home, at work, and at school. Data were gathered in an anonymous in-class national survey of 3,323 seniors at 82 colleges and universities. It was hypothesized that both the students who self-reported being more computer literate and those who self-reported being more experienced users of computer software would more likely indicate that they regularly use a virus detector. A chi-square test of the data supported these hypotheses.

Abstract:

Initial evidence suggests that computer-assisted cognitive rehabilitation may improve cognitive performance among people with multiple sclerosis (MS). Most studies of computer-assisted cognitive training have incorporated an individualized in-office/clinic approach for training. The purpose of this study was to explore the feasibility of home-based computer-assisted training and systematically examine the perceptions of people with MS regarding home use of the program. Qualitative data (written and verbal) obtained as part of a larger randomized clinical trial of a cognitive rehabilitation intervention were analyzed. The computer training component of the intervention included prescribed tracks and exercises on the Internet-based Neuropsychonline program. The majority of the participants used the program the recommended number of times per week and for the minimum number of minutes over the 8-week intervention. Although participants had notable negative perceptions and complaints about the program during the training experience, most of them acknowledged during training that use of the program helped them recognize cognitive limitations, create and practice strategies to increase cognitive function, and improve the quality of their daily life. Data from focus groups 3 months after the training included similar criticisms regarding lack of feedback and difficulties with the program as well as acknowledgment of the positive effects and a desire for continued access to the program. The findings suggest that while home training is feasible, careful preparation for use of the program is required.

Abstract:

Cognitive Intelligence development is related to intellectual potential of the individual, the ability of think and problems solve. The cognitive aspect is also influenced by the development of the brain's central nerve cells. The use of smartphones in daily life can be felt by facilitating communication for its users and also as a means of entertainment, as well as a form ofintroduction to Science and technology for early generations as a means of technological literacy, the negative impacts caused such as, making addiction to children under age teenager, the level of desire to learn decreases when in school or at home and children will be lazy to move and ect. So there needs to be an introduction in the form of local content or additional subjects in schools, which direct the use of smartphones for students to progress in a positive direction.

Abstract:

The novel BackHome system offers individuals with disabilities a range of useful services available via brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), to help restore their independence. This is the time such technology is ready to be deployed in the real world, that is, at the target end users’ home. This has been achieved by the development of practical electrodes, easy to use software, and delivering telemonitoring and home support capabilities which have been conceived, implemented, and tested within a user-centred design approach. The final BackHome system is the result of a 3-year long process involving extensive user engagement to maximize effectiveness, reliability, robustness, and ease of use of a home based BCI system. The system is comprised of ergonomic and hassle-free BCI equipment; one-click software services for Smart Home control, cognitive stimulation, and web browsing; and remote telemonitoring and home support tools to enable independent home use for nonexpert caregivers and users. BackHome aims to successfully bring BCIs to the home of people with limited mobility to restore their independence and ultimately improve their quality of life.

Abstract:

AbstractComputer networks serve as convenient, efficient, and enduring vehicles for delivering nursing services to patients at home. The ComputerLink, a specialized computer network, provided nurse-supervised information, decision support, and communication services to home-dwelling persons living with AIDS (PWAs). During a 26-week randomized field experiment, 26 PWAs accessed the ComputerLink on more than 8,664 occasions. The communications area was used most often; the public communication area functioned like a support group. Multiple behavioral measures of use provide a rich picture of how these PWAs, none of whom had had prior computer experience, adopted and adapted to this innovative nursing care delivery system. Meeting the needs of a rapidly growing and diverse population of home-care clients demands that nurses make effective use of existing technologies such as cable television and telephone triage systems. Computer networks combine the best features of cable television and telephone systems—broadcast distribution and interaction; therefore, computer networks represent an ideal technology for the delivery of certain nursing services to the home.

Abstract:

Home healthcare is vital for a large percentage of the population. According to data from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), 7 million people in the United States receive home healthcare annually. The use of medical devices in the home and other nonclinical environments is increasing dramatically. By the year 2050, an estimated 27 million people will need continuing care in the home or in the community and not in a controlled clinical environment.1 The FDA recently announced its Home Use Devices Initiative and issued the document, “Draft Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff—Design Considerations for Devices Intended for Home Use” on Dec. 12, 2012.2 The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) regulates medical devices, but that regulatory authority alone is not enough to ensure safe and effective use of devices in the home. To address these and other issues, AAMI and FDA will co-host a summit on healthcare technology in nonclinical settings Oct. 9–10, 2013.

Abstract:

Aim The paper examines teenage alcohol use from an intergenerational perspective through an ethnographic case study of interaction between teenagers and adults. Methods Two periods of ethnographic fieldwork were conducted in a rural Danish community of approximately 6000 inhabitants. The fieldwork included 50 days of participant observation among 13–16-year-olds (n=93) as well as semi-structured interviews with small self-selected friendship groups. The present paper presents an analysis of field notes from a night of participant observation that is used as an emblematic example of informants' alcohol use and their interaction with adults. Theoretically, the paper adopts French philosopher Michel de Certeau's conceptual framework for understanding the practice of everyday life, in particular his distinction between strategic and tactical action. Results Two scenarios are described and taken to represent two different adult approaches to teenage drinking. In Scenario I, adults accept a group of teenagers' drinking in the home, and in Scenario II adults create an alcohol-free space which they guard against the intrusion of intoxicated teenagers. In both cases, however, adults use their intergenerational position in order to strategically contain teenage drinking. Meanwhile, teenagers act tactically by adjusting their alcohol use in time and space. Further, the use of alcohol marks a shift in the interaction between adults and teenagers in so far as it enables teenagers to create and control a place of their own and hence signal their independence from adults. Conclusion The paper points to the creative, tactical agency of teenagers in response to adult strategies. It is illustrated how teenage alcohol use becomes a transformative factor for adult–teenager relationships, and in particular how teenagers rework intergenerational power differences by taking on drinking.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of computer technology on Jordanian children from the perspectives of their parents. The sample of the study consisted of 127 participants. Each participant is a parent of a child or children who owned a personal computer. Our findings revealed some of the positive as well as negative changes that have been manifested as a result of using computers. The study showed that children's behavior changes as a result of computer use. For example, children became less active as they spend time on the computer and less time devoted to exercising and playing. The most essential finding of this study was that a large number of parents reported that their children familiarized themselves with computer functions and parts and technological and computer concepts, such as chatting, e-mail, and digital games.

Abstract:

This article presents research findings from a study conducted at Telenor, a Norwegian telecom operator. The company distributed home Personal Computers (PCs) to their employees in an effort to encourage professional development outside working hours and mainly on an individual basis. The report includes results from a systematic survey of 2500 employees of the approximately 11,000 home-PC users concerning their use of home-PCs for learning. Findings suggest that home-PCs can contribute positively to increasing employees' knowledge about information and communications technology (ICT), and improve specific user skills. While the use of home PCs can also enable employees to learn while using information and communications technologies, the number of employees who actually do so is modest.

Abstract:

Purpose With a high rate of mobile technology ownership in the home, it is unknown how parents’ behavioral intention influences mobile technology adoption and children’s informal use to support reading. The purpose of this paper is to identify 120 parents’ intentions to adopt mobile technology and gather in-depth perceptions about mobile technology adoption with a smaller subset of 13 parents. Design/methodology/approach The unified theory of acceptance and use of technology adoption model and the ecological systems theory help explain the interconnections of the child’s home and school on mobile technology intentions and use behavior. A mixed-method explanatory research design obtained behavioral intention scores from a parent survey and individual interviews explained intention scores and depth of perceptions. Findings Parents’ behavioral intention scores show, on average, parents agree with using mobile technology to help their child read in the home. Behavioral intention concerns are influenced by children’s individual experience with technology: reluctant users prioritize media-safe education; indifferent users perceive technology as entertainment and desire a balance of text mediums; eager users are influenced socially and recognize interactive and individual affordances when reading with technology. Research limitations/implications Knowing that parents’ behavioral intentions vary based on their individual concerns, transparency between parents and teachers about parents’ concerns and children’s mobile technology use in the home can strengthen children’s mobile learning opportunities between home and school. Originality/value Data were collected from 46 classrooms between two K-5 elementary schools in the southeastern USA, which offers a unique glimpse into technology adoption behavior in two different communities.

Abstract:

The increasing use of computer technology in schools has brought with it concerns about equity of access to this new resource. Research has documented gender, social class, and racial inequalities in access to computers, and has linked computer access and experience to success in computer-related courses. This study examined the effects of home computer access and computer course enrollment on mathematically weak high school students' success in applying computers as a learning resource in a pre-algebra course. The course featured regular use of teacher-designed spreadsheet activities that engaged students in mathematical investigation and problem solving. Enrollment in a computer course was a significant predictor of success during students' early experiences in applying computers for mathematical problem solving. Home computer access was related to initial success for females, and the advantage of enrollment in a computer course was greater for females who had access to home computers than for those who did not. These initial advantages diminished with continued use of computers in the curricular context.

Abstract:

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of sex and school level on the computer anxiety of rural middle school and secondary students when home availability and school use of computers are controlled. A total of 1,067 students in middle and secondary grades in six rural school districts participated in the study. The instrument used was the Computer Anxiety Scale with Cronbach's reliability coefficients ranging from .83 to .91, depending on the school level of the students. Sex and school level differences were found in home availability, but not in school use of computers. The findings suggest computer anxiety is not affected by sex or school level when home availability and school use of a computer is statistically controlled.
