Summary: This study investigates the effects of short-form video use on time distortion through two empirical studies. The results show that the frequency of short-form video use is positively correlated with overestimation of video use time and time spent on unrelated tasks. In addition, comparing the TikTok group with the reading group, the TikTok group overestimated the duration of both the priming activity and subsequent academic task, while the reading group demonstrated accurate duration estimation without time distortion.

Summary: The internet has become a primary source of health information for laypersons, but it also spreads misinformation that challenges adults' ability to evaluate health messages. This study examines the role of source characteristics, evidence quality, crowdsourcing platform, and prior beliefs in adults' credibility evaluations of short health-related social media posts. The findings suggest that source expertise and prior belief consistency have the greatest impact on perceived credibility, while evidence quality has relatively less influence. The data collection platform also plays a significant role in credibility evaluations, as inaccurate claims are more likely to be rated higher on one platform compared to another.

Summary: This study examines the factors influencing social media distress disclosure and the relationship between distressing life events, social media distress disclosure, and psychological well-being. The results show that the frequency of distress disclosure on social media is influenced by both situational and non-situational factors. The study also reveals that the association between distressing life events and perceived stress is mediated by social media distress disclosure frequency, and this mediation is moderated by risk-benefit calculus and satisfaction with social media distress disclosure.

Summary: Mobile Focus+Context (mF+C) involves using a handheld device as a focus screen for content on an immersive display or mobile projector. In this study, three techniques for linking focus and context were compared, and it was found that all techniques were able to mitigate poor projection quality and performed similarly in terms of time and precision. However, the effectiveness of each technique depended on the task type.

Summary: Individual variations in personal standards for thinking influence the nature and quality of beliefs. Strong commitments to epistemic virtues encourage careful thinking and protect against suspicious claims. However, individuals are more likely to hold biased or unsupported beliefs when they think that biased or evidentially poor reasoning is justified.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of gender-anonymous voice avatars on women's performance in online computing group work. The findings indicate that when only male participants use masked voices, female participants speak for a longer period of time and score higher on computing problems. When everyone uses masked voices, female participants speak for a longer period of time, speak more words, and score higher on computing problems.

Summary: In the age of digitalization and globalization, decision environments have become increasingly complex. This study investigates the impact of complexity on risk taking and finds that complexity decreases the choice probability of an option, but has a smaller effect when evaluating lotteries independently. Participants who spend more time looking at the complex option are less influenced by complexity, indicating a tendency to avoid cognitive effort. Furthermore, individuals with higher cognitive ability show less aversion to complexity in regards to valuations.
