“…Researchers and reporters have compared this heavy phone use to a trance or hypnosis (4,5). Madrigal (6) even likens the "hypnotic" state of endless social media scrolling to the trance-like absorption of slot machines (7), due to their intermittent rewards (8). If heavy smartphone use can resemble hypnosis, people who are more hypnotisable may also be more prone to problematic smartphone use, in which phone use interferes with daily life (9).…”

Hypnosis and heavy smartphone use are both characterised by absorbed states in which one loses track of time and responds automatically to stimuli. In this pre-registered study, we tested whether there was a relationship between smartphone addiction and hypnotisability: one's tendency to follow suggestions under hypnosis. Over 11 public lectures, we hypnotised 641 student-aged participants; after the hypnosis session, participants completed the Smartphone Addiction Scale (Short Version). There was a positive correlation between hypnotisability and smartphone addiction (r = .17, 95% CI [.09, .24], p < .001) with a magnitude similar to standard predictors of hypnotisability. This correlation was small but unlikely spurious: it was positive in 10 of the 11 samples (including two from psychology courses) and persisted in a follow-up several months later. The addiction scores in this Canadian sample were unexpectedly high (M = 31.41) compared to other countries. We hypothesise that targeting the absorbed, time-distorted, and automatic use of smartphones may promote healthier phone habits.

“…To get that meaning, one must be able to move from chaos to more lively activities, through something more straightforward, and help others through the quality of being human (Crook, 2015, p. 205). This view is supported by Aranda and Baig (2018) who writes that two significant dimensions of JOMO concept, namely the level of control and duration of time.…”

Tourism derived from many criteria ranging from activities, attractions, location, travel style and the tourism product category preferred. The present paper aimed to examine the two travel trends The Joy of Missing Out (JOMO) and Iconic landmarks and sites by reviewing relevant literature review from both travel trends, and critically analyse which of one of the two trends is likely to dominate. A comparison of the two trends reveals that JOMO is a type of journey that emphasises with the isolation against technology, with motivation for relaxation, escape from everyday routine and commitments. Meanwhile, iconic landmarks and sites travel trends have the characteristics in novelty seeking to visit exciting places, viewing the scenery and related to tourist self-development. These studies provide valuable insights into the JOMO concept related to the motivation of relax and iconic landmarks and sites tourist attraction described as a ‘flagship, which is highly noticeable as the strongest pull-factors of a destination and regarded a primary growth destination resource. The scope of this study was limited in terms of travel trends from the literature review. Further studies need to be carried out in order to validate the experiences of the traveller within these two travel trends by comparing their expectations, perceptions, and motives.

“…As such, research on digital wellbeing and disconnection has highlighted the ambivalence of people's relationship with digital media (Aranda & Baig, 2018;Ytre-Arne et al, 2020;Vanden Abeele, 2020). On the one hand, users recognize the enjoyments and benefits that being on digital media has to offer.…”

As digital media have become an integral part of many people's everyday life, challenges also arise for people to cope with the constant connectivity and exposure to communication and information. Drawing on in-depth interviews with 30 adults, this study explores the strategies they use to disconnect from social media platforms and messaging apps, and how such disconnection relates to their sense of wellbeing. Participants employed strategies ranging from complete disconnection to nuanced ways to manage their connectivity (e.g., disconnecting from devices, social media platforms and apps, or from specific content and social connections). They also drew on features of technology to disconnect; however, such strategies were more common among those with greater digital skills. Finally, digital disconnection practices could benefit people in their everyday life activities and sense of wellbeing. By shedding light on people's multifaceted and ever evolving relationship with digital media, this study informs future research on digital media use, digital disconnection, and wellbeing.
