“…The current study highlights the role of delivery apps in providing information and facilitating decision making for users living in single-person households who lack meal companions for consultation. It suggests that the rise in online intermediaries should be examined from a broader social perspective, accounting for changes in underlying social structures, such as the increase in single-person households, rather than just the emergence of mobile technology [43,44].…”

Delivery applications represent more than just substitutes for phone calls when ordering food. Unlike phone calls, delivery applications not only facilitate orders and payments, but also assist users in narrowing down the multiple options to a final choice. This research focused on the extent to which users rely on delivery applications to make food-ordering decisions and examined how two factors—portion number and marital status—affect this dependence. The empirical results supported our prediction that (i) single-portion users depend more heavily on delivery applications than multiple-portion users, as the latter have no meal companions to consult; and (ii) unmarried (vs. married) users exhibited an even greater dependence on delivery applications in a single-portion-meal context, due to a weaker sense of responsibility for and agency over meal preparation. These findings illustrate how delivery applications can contribute to the expansion of delivery service markets by influencing food-ordering decision-making behavior.

With the popularization of mobile devices and access to Internet, there has been an intense growth in ubiquitous learning products and studies. How does this effectively impact learners’ (not just students’) and teachers’ daily lives? This chapter presents a literature review on ubiquitous learning, highlighting the impacts of this paradigm on the educational practice, seeking to combine this paradigm with social learning theories. Finally, the authors describe the extension of a social learning service called Redu, whose development is guided by the flexibility of pedagogical models, self-regulated learning, and by supporting the context, allowing a ubiquitous learning experience.
