Preference and Opinion on Social Media for Disseminating Scholarly Information Among Research Scholars in the Universities in Tamil Nadu: A Study

Literature Review

Bianchi and Phillips (2005) discussed mobile phone use as banned or illegal under certain circumstances and in some jurisdictions. Nevertheless, some people still use their mobile phones despite recognized safety concerns, legislation, and informal bans. Drawing on potential predictors from addiction literature, this study sought to predict usage and, specifically, problematic mobile phone use from extraversion, self-esteem, neuroticism, gender, and age. To measure problem use, a Mobile Phone Problem Use Scale was devised and validated as a reliable self-report instrument against the Addiction Potential Scale and overall mobile phone usage levels. Problem use was a function of age, extraversion, and low self-esteem but not neuroticism. Humphreys (2007) reported on the social and behavioral norms of dodgeball use.
