The “device divide” occurs when uses of the Internet vary substantially by device. While the mobile phone was welcomed as a way to reduce the general digital divide, much early research presumed that mobile Internet was essentially inferior to personal-computer-based Internet in terms of possible online activities and related benefits. Given ongoing developments in devices, online activities, and socio-demographic differences, we reassess the device divide. After reviewing the concept, and considering mobile phone capabilities that could influence activities, followed by summarizing changes in device usage and online activities in the United States, we analyze the device divide from 2011 to 2019 in Armenia. Over time, use of mobile Internet separately and combined with personal computer Internet grew, and differences in online activity use withered, raising issues of whither device divide research. Nonetheless, in all years, there are continuing demographic-based digital divides after controlling for device divides.

Mobile phone usage is typically measured via self-reporting. However, scholars have questioned the validity of self-reported data, which may lead to Type I or Type II errors. Using an online survey (n = 777), this study compared self-reported and log mobile phone usage data using a simplified version of the mobile data donation method. The results showed that people generally underreported their mobile phone usage in terms of time duration, the number of notifications, and apps used. Moreover, self-reported data may either have no additional effect on or overestimate the communication findings depending on the outcome variables. This challenges the Type II error explanation and suggests that the effect sizes of self-reported data might not be underestimated after all. Instead, past research examining mobile use and pertinent outcomes may have false-positive findings and Type I errors. Given the potential inaccuracies of self-reported data, future research on mobile media and communications should go beyond self-reported data to enhance the validity of findings.

Psychology-infused research has always been a central section within the literature on mobile media and communication, highlighting the diverse emotional, cognitive, social, and personality processes that can interact with mobile behavior. While past work on the psychology of media and technology has been rooted more in the discipline of Communication than Psychology, more social scientists across disciplines are conducting mobile research with each year going forward. The result is a massive, and arguably scattered, body of knowledge on the psychological predictors, processes, effects, and implications of mobile media use. Despite the breadth of the burgeoning literature, there have been increasing attempts to synthesize this wide-ranging work (Bayer et al., 2016; Cumiskey & Ling, 2015; Ellis, 2020; Kushlev & Leitao, 2020; Melumad & Pham, 2020; Ross & Campbell, 2021; Wilmer et al., 2017). That said, it is unclear how much psychologically tuned research has been published in Mobile Media & Communication (MMC) so far. In this short review, we evaluate the prevalence of psychological work in MMC by completing a flyover of article abstracts published during the journal’s 10-year history. We then identify the core themes within this set of articles, extracting the guiding perspectives that drive research on the psychology of mobile media. To conclude, we reconsider the

Welcome toMobile Media & Communication’s second decade! It is indeed rewarding to see that the journal has moved through its early teething years (and its adolescence) and is now a well-established venue for scholars working in the area of mobile communication studies. With this introductory article, we would like to take the opportunity to thank all of our colleagues who have made contributions to the success of Mobile Media & Communication. Indeed, it is gratifying to have seen the trajectory of the journal. We wish to recognize the authors who have contributed their work through the years, and, not the least, we recognize the reviewers who have contributed their time to critically read the articles that have been submitted. We would also like to thank the people at SAGE who have helped us navigate the shoals of founding and nurturing the journal. During the past decade, something more than 250 articles have been published (based on over 1,350 submissions). These have been both general submissions and submissions to special issues on a variety of sub-topics. A result of all this work is that the journal has become indexed. Indeed, as of this writing,Mobile Media & Communication has a 2-year impact factor of 3.9, positioning it among the 25 most cited communication journals.

With the explosive spread of mobile media represented by mobile phones and the rapid iteration of mobile Internet technology, various social media applications have emerged, such as Facebook, Twitter, and China’s WeChat and Weibo. When mobile media as nonhuman actors were adapted into our daily life, the state of “permanent online, permanent connection” turned out to be the routine for mobile media users (Vorderer & Kohring, 2013), who started to use domesticated media as a resistance tactic to balance between the media system structures and action power (Haddon, 2003, p. 43). In this sense, the mobile media extend the time and space for social interaction. While the context of mobile communication has undergone drastic changes, the “media practice” carried out by users has also been increasingly treated as the core concept for the research on media action that is co-constructed among the public, technology, and environment. It should be noted that the scholarship on mobile communication effects achieved during the past decade mainly took a perspective from either the technological determinism or social construction of technology. However, neither the relationship between structure and action, nor that between technology and society, should be viewed as simply binary. Rather, the bilateral interaction perspective that was originally emphasized in communication research should be revisited, and the recent affordance perspective should be reintroduced and refocused. The concept of affordance was first proposed by eco-psychologist Gibson based on his interest in visual perception. Affordance refers to the action possibility of the perceiving subject in an object or environment, which is independent of the actor’s experience but
