Today I’m covering a research article about how using mobile devices could impact attentional mode. We all wonder how mobile device use might affect us and this article goes over a couple of specific ways it might impact us. Further research should be done but I go over what they did and what they tested and what it might mean.
The article most heavily focuses on global vs local processing but it also brings up some other topics. Some of this might be considered a bit dry of content but hopefully you found it interesting and that the video makes it more digestible. I would say this is no only relevant for Gen Alpha but maybe anyone.
