Examining the Automaticity of Ambient Awareness via Its Persistence Under Cognitive Load
Knowing where expertise is in one’s network is essential for knowledge transfer and collaboration. Browsing social media can foster ambient awareness of who-knows-what. Although ambient awareness is defined by its automaticity, its persistence under cognitive constraints remains unexplored. In two preregistered experiments (Ntotal = 1,218), we tested whether people automatically infer others’ areas of expertise when browsing work-related social m…
Research Review
BACKGROUND: Growing evidence suggests that the use of hormonal contraceptives (HCs) during adolescence may be linked to an increased risk for depression. This review examines major inconsistencies that have been reported regarding this relationship, and in particular, how the common practice of combining 'never users' and 'former users' of HCs in analyses obscures patterns that are detectable when these groups are analyzed separately. METHODS: A …
What do you mean by “social media”? Introducing the Reporting Items for Social Media Research (RISoMeR)
Scholars from various disciplines study social media. However, neither researchers nor users have a unified understanding of social media. Even more problematically, many researchers do not define how social media is understood in their studies reducing the transparency, interpretability, and comparability of research. In this article, we introduce the Reporting Items for Social Media Research (RISoMeR), a flexible and easy-to-use matrix with whi…
Ambient Awareness of Who Knows What
Being aware of others’ expertise is essential for knowledge exchange. Browsing social media has been shown to foster such awareness, often referred to as “ambient awareness”. However, the underlying psychological mechanism has not yet been established. In a series of three preregistered experiments (total N = 445), we tested the notions that individuals make inferences about others’ domains of expertise when being exposed to domain-implying socia…
Directly-measured smartphone screen time predicts well-being and feelings of social connectedness
Previous findings on the relationship between smartphone use and well-being have been mixed. This may be partially due to a reliance on cross-sectional study designs and self-reported smartphone usage. In the current study, we collected screen time data by directly tracking participants' ( N = 325, ages 14−80 years, 58% women) smartphone usage over a period of 6 days. We combined this tracking with ecological momentary assessment, asking particip…
Drivers and social effects of the decision to turn on one’s camera during videoconferencing in groups
With the emergence of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, videoconferencing was rapidly adopted. However, individuals frequently decide to keep their cameras off during videoconferences. Currently, the reasons for this are not well modeled, and neither are the social effects this decision has. The present research addresses the question whether camera use can be conceptualized as prosocial behavior. To this end, two preregistered studies (total N = 437) exa…
Association between adolescent oral contraceptive use and future major depressive disorder
BACKGROUND: Because of the widespread use of oral contraceptives (OCs) and the devastating effects of depression both on an individual and a societal level, it is crucial to understand the nature of the previously reported relationship between OC use and depression risk. Insight into the impact of analytical choices on the association is important when interpreting available evidence. Hence, we examined the association between adolescent OC use a…
Individual and Situational Factors Influencing Active Behavior in Professional Video Conferences With Strangers
Since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, the use of video conferences in professional settings increased rapidly. Here, we examine how individual and situational characteristics jointly predict active behavior in video conferences (i.e., activating one’s webcam, small talk, contacting other attendees) between strangers. We focus on external networking as well as proactive and reactive online networking and social anxiety as individual charact…
The effects of trait social anxiety on affective and behavioral reactions to others' resource allocations
Most studies investigating interindividual differences in the context of social decision making have focused on the decision maker. Considerably less empirical attention has been paid to interindividual differences in how recipients react both affectively and behaviorally. In two preregistered studies (total N = 667), we examined whether heightened levels of trait social anxiety are associated with higher levels of forecasted and experienced nega…
