Digital technologies are deeply embedded in everyday life with
opportunities for information access and perpetual social contact
now mediating most of our activities and relationships. This book
expands the lens of Cyberpsychology to consider how digital
experiences play out across the various stages of people's lives.
Most psychological research has focused on whether human-technology
interactions are a 'good' or a 'bad' thing for humanity. This book
offers a distinctive approach to the emergent area of
Cyberpsychology, moving beyond these binary dilemmas and
considering how popular technologies have come to frame human
experience and relationships. In particular the authors explore the
role of significant life stages in defining the evolving purpose of
digital technologies. They discuss how people's symbiotic
relationship with digital technologies has started to redefine our
childhoods, how we experience ourselves, how we make friends, our
experience of being alone, how we have sex and form romantic
relationships, our capacity for being antisocial as well as the
experience of growing older and dying. This interdisciplinary book
will be of great interest to scholars and practitioners across
psychology, digital technology and media studies as well as anyone
interested in how technology influences our behaviour.
