Objective: To measure the interrater reliability of assessing the frequency of vegetable intake using mobile photos and descriptions. Design: Repeated measures design. Setting: A Midwestern university. Participants: Undergraduate students (N = 165). Measurable Outcome/Analysis: Number of times each of these vegetable subgroups were consumed daily:…

This study examined the effects of a mobile camera versus a stationary camera on scores for Rubrics 6-9 of the Elementary Education edTPA Task 2. Scores on these rubrics are primarily based on video evidence for a positive classroom environment, engaging students in learning, deepening student learning, and subject-specific pedagogy. Over two…

Background/Case Presentation: An 18-year-old female college student shared an electronic message with her friends in which she discussed plans to harm herself through the ingestion of a highly toxic substance. Concerned friends activated emergency healthcare resources, who were dispatched to the individual's residence. Based on the known toxicity…

While biosensing is becoming a popular tool among urban geographers to address the emotional experience of the urban environment, it is also posing significant challenges, as its application demands expertise on technology and human physiology that is not part of regular curricula in geography courses. Despite this, there is little exploration of…

The current study examined why people take and delete photos with smartphone cameras, and participants' recollective experiences with saved and deleted photos. Two mixed-methods surveys asked undergraduates (Study 1) and an international online sample (Study 2) to review both recently taken and recently deleted photos from their smartphones' photo…

As handheld devices, such as tablets, become a common tool in schools, a critical and urgent question for the research community is to assess their potential impact on educational outcomes. Previous meta-analytic research has evidenced the "screen inferiority effect": Readers tend to understand texts slightly worse when reading on-screen…

This study aimed to determine the trends of smartphone usage and behaviours associated with its use among undergraduate medical students at ABWA Medical College, Pakistan. Conducted from July to December 2023, this cross-sectional survey involved 270 undergraduate medical students, with 264 participants responding, resulting in a 97.7% response…

With the increasing use of mobile applications for educational purposes among university students, enhancing the efficiency of mobile instruction and learning is a key concern in higher education. It is, therefore, necessary to explore students' mobile learning habits and to identify the factors that influence their mobile learning to further…

Young adults' personal mobile device use is at an all-time high. Social interaction and physical activity (PA) are generally positively associated in this population; however, the nature of this relationship is unclear when personal mobile devices (cell phones) are present. The objective of this study was to examine the social and PA behavior…

Phubbing harms relationships and reduces well-being of phubbees. However, limited research has explored the potential causes and underlying mechanisms for phubbing; and an important risk factor, social anxiety, has been largely ignored from previous studies. The present study employed a moderated mediation model to examine whether social anxiety…

Mobile shopping (m-shopping) adoption has been significantly touted in the contemporary era; however, the adoption of m-shopping is still under shadow in many developing countries. The aim of this study is to discover the impact of device system quality on m-shopping adoption among university students with the support of UTAUT and UTAUT2 theories.…

Objective: The purpose of this study was to measure college student athletes' nutrition knowledge and behavior before and after a text message-based educational intervention. Participants: Athletes (n = 35) participated by completing a pre- and post-intervention survey. Methods: This survey gathered information on ability to identify carbohydrate…

The increasing popularity of mobile devices as alternative tools for learning has led to the adoption of virtual laboratory simulation (VLab) to enhance practical learning experiences. This paper introduces an interactive mobile learning application designed to facilitate medical students in learning ear anatomy using a three-dimensional model.…

Behavior-change theories reliably explain behavior, but they often lack messaging recommendations to modify behavior. The Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) could benefit from clear, replicable messaging strategies to target its constructs of attitudes, social norms, and perceived behavioral control (PBC) about a behavior (Ajzen, 1991). Habit Theory…

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to understand current research on the utilization of mobile health (mHealth) technologies for college students with disabilities. Methods: We conducted a bibliometric analysis to understand the longitudinal research trends and dominant topics in mHealth research for college students. Next, we performed a…
