“…Rosen et al [54] produced empirical work showing that the incorporation of variables such as use of social media improves traditional scales measuring technology usage. New technological paradigms and the impact of the adoption of new ICT devices on consumer life habits mean that the scales have to be constantly updated [55,56].…”

Abstract:The aim of this paper is to analyze Rogers-system categories of electric vehicle adopters in Tenerife (Canary Islands) to highlight the psychological factors defining each category. The paper runs a model to calculate willingness to change and willingness to pay for an electric vehicle following the contingent valuation methodology. A survey performed in Tenerife Island collected data from 444 private cars drivers. The survey contained a set of questions on psychological and car-features issues, as well as other items querying the socioeconomic factors and mobility characteristics of the drivers. This paper brings key contributions to the literature. First, it uses two theoretical frameworks to define the categories of innovators from a psychosocial standpoint. Second, the results will usefully inform both policymakers and automaker marketing departments on specific actions to accelerate the uptake of electric vehicles. Our results confirm that electric vehicle adopter categories are similar in proportion and characteristics to those of Rogers' diffusion of innovation theory, and can be collapsed into two macro-groups of adopters distributed in a 50%-50% split in our sample, i.e., the earlier adopters and the later adopters.

“…Young adults with insecure attachment orientations report lower levels of extraversion and openness with others compared to those with secure attachments. (Jenkins-Guarnieri, Wright, & Hudiburgh, 2012). Thus, it is plausible that children with emotionally unavailable mothers may develop negative relational schemas wherein they perceive relationships as unrewarding and view others as generally cold and untrustworthy.…”

This research examined the intergenerational transmission of depressive symptoms from mothers to their adult children through two succeeding mediators: a child's perception of emotional availability from their mothers, and a child's social skills. To do so, this study integrated principles from the integrative model of risk from depressed mother to offspring, attachment theory, and the social skills deficit theory of depression. Child reports of depressive symptoms, perceived emotional availability from mothers, and social skills were assessed as well as mother reports of depressive symptoms from 224 (N = 448) mother-child dyads. Results showed that maternal depressive symptoms were significantly related to child perceptions of emotional availability. Moreover, emotional availability was positively related to child social skills, which in turn was negatively related to child depressive symptoms. Additionally, the indirect effect from maternal depressive symptoms to child depressive symptoms through the mediators was significant. The theoretical and practical implications of these findings are discussed.

“…Audience behavior can also be explained by personality traits (Jenkins-Guarnieri, Wright, & Hudiburgh, 2012). For example, outgoing people tended to engage in media activities that provide social interaction, while introverts often used media that can offer them a sense of control (Argyle & Lu, 1990;Mahoney & Tang, 2016).…”

Social media has substantially changed how people consume media content, particularly during sport mega-events. This study examined the audience social media uses during the ''most social Olympics'' and found that demographics, personality, motivations, preference, media use routine, and viewing context significantly predicted social media consumption for the Rio Games. Olympics viewing on social media was predominately predicted by media use routine, while following and posting on social media about the Olympics appeared to be a more ''active'' choice that was shaped by personal identity and virtual schemas. In addition, results indicate that social media uses during the Rio Games neither ''displaced'' nor ''encouraged'' Olympics viewing on traditional television. Uses of social media suggest a digital expansion of ''group'' viewing and transform ways in which the audience can experience a sport mega-event.
