By explicating ethical legal considerations governing situations surrounding apps,...
This article presents a continuous measure of future self-continuity (FSC-C) designed for use in web-based surveys. It allows researchers to assess on scale the similarity or connectedness that participants feel relation their selves. The has an intuitive drag-and-drop interface, where can drag one circle over another certain degree overlap indicate closeness between present self and is highly customizable therefore also attractive other domains (e.g., Inclusion Other Self). In this regard,...
The public health measures implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted a substantially increased shared reliance on private infrastructure and digital services areas such as healthcare, education, retail, workplace.
