“…Fear is manifested in different forms, including fear of security, fear of missing out, fear of failure, fear to take risks, … etc. (Alt & Boniel-Nissim, 2018;Ellahi, 2017;Machů & Morysová, 2016;MORCHID, n.d.). Based on the previous assumption, it seems that fear may extend its effect to influence the adoption of technology during COVID-19 pandemic when most schools, colleges and universities have started implementing distance learning to lessen the dangerous and malicious effects of Coronavirus.…”

This study seeks to explore the effect of fear emotion on students' and teachers' technology adoption during COVID-19 pandemic. The study has made use of Google Meet© as an educational social platform in private higher education institutes. The data obtained from the study were analyzed by using the partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) and machine learning algorithms. The main hypotheses of this study are related to the effect of COVID-19 on the adoption of Google Meet as COVID-19 rise s various types of fear. During the Coronavirus pandemic, fear due to family lockdown situation, fear of education failure and fear of losing social relationships are the most common types of threat that may face students and teachers/educators. These types of fears are connected with two important factors within TAM theory, which are: perceived ease of use (PEOU) and perceived usefulness (PU), and with another external factor of TAM, which is subjective norm (SN). The results revealed that both data analysis techniques have successfully provided support to all the hypothesized relationships of the research model. More interesting, the J48 classifier has performed better than the other classifiers in predicting the dependent variable in most cases.

“…One dimension of mindfulness concerns the attitude held towards one's present‐moment experience, specifically one of curiosity, openness, and nonjudgment or acceptance of any sensations, thoughts, or feelings that arise (Robins et al, 2012). Analysis of fear of emotion in gifted children also suggested that the aim with children is not to rid them of fear, or to support them, but to teach them to accept their fears in a reasonable manner(Machů & Morysová, 2016). Regularly practicing mindfulness may allow elements of conscious and less conscious experience to be perceived from a decentered, decontextualized, accepted stance (Broderick & Jennings, 2012), which may reduce fear of emotions in college students.…”

Fear of losing control over one's emotions has gained increased research interest. Mindfulness‐based stress reduction (MBSR) has been found to improve emotional disturbance in clinical and nonclinical samples. However, no studies have concurrently examined the direct effects of MBSR on reduced fear of emotions among university students in Chinese culture, as well as its indirect effects on reduced fear of emotions via improvements in the cognitive‐behavioral processes. A total of 106 college students were randomly assigned to MBSR or to a control group. Assignment to the MBSR intervention led to increases in mindfulness and decentering, and decreases in rumination, emotion regulation difficulties, Affective Control Scale (ACS)‐anger, ACS‐depression, ACS‐anxiety, ACS‐positive emotion and total ACS score, as compared to the control group. The reduction of fear of positive emotion was less than that in fear of anger, depression and anxiety. MBSR was effective to reduce the fear of emotions in college students. Moreover, college students in Chinese culture tended to have a more moderate experience of positive emotions. Attention (mindfulness) and thought (decentering and rumination) may be possible cognitive mechanisms for explaining how MBSR may reduce fear of emotions in college students. Our findings provide important information that can be applied to the design of future studies or mental health resources for reducing fear of emotions in university programs.

“…The lockdown effect has also had an impact on students' fear; the need for e-learning became critical when education institutes were forced to halt their contact learning and teaching practices. Furthermore, students' fear can manifest as a fear of taking risks, a fear of failure, a fear of missing out, and fear resulting from insecurity [7][8][9][10]. Students' fear can also impact technology adoption, as the COVID-19 lockdown has forced universities, colleges, and schools to implement distance learning in an attempt to lessen the harmful effects of COVID-19 and maintain student learning.…”

Background Mobile learning has become an essential instruction platform in many schools, colleges, universities, and various other educational institutions across the globe, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic crisis. The resulting severe, pandemic-related circumstances have disrupted physical and face-to-face contact teaching practices, thereby requiring many students to actively use mobile technologies for learning. Mobile learning technologies offer viable web-based teaching and learning platforms that are accessible to teachers and learners worldwide. Objective This study investigated the use of mobile learning platforms for instruction purposes in United Arab Emirates higher education institutions. Methods An extended technology acceptance model and theory of planned behavior model were proposed to analyze university students’ adoption of mobile learning platforms for accessing course materials, searching the web for information related to their disciplines, sharing knowledge, and submitting assignments during the COVID-19 pandemic. We collected a total of 1880 questionnaires from different universities in the United Arab Emirates. Partial least squares-structural equation modeling and machine learning algorithms were used to assess the research model, which was based on the data gathered from a student survey. Results Based on our results, each hypothesized relationship within the research model was supported by our data analysis results. It should also be noted that the J48 classifier (89.37% accuracy) typically performed better than the other classifiers when it came to the prediction of the dependent variable. Conclusions Our study revealed that teaching and learning could considerably benefit from adopting remote learning systems as educational tools during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the value of such systems could be lessened because of the emotions that students experience, including a fear of poor grades, stress resulting from family circumstances, and sadness resulting from a loss of friends. Accordingly, these issues can only be resolved by evaluating the emotions of students during the pandemic.
