Digital wellbeing applications:
Adoption, use and perceived effects

Douglas A.Parry and his co-authors, in this article of Computers in Human Behavior, relate a mixed-method study involving the collection of both quantitative and qualitative data from a student sample conducted with the aim of investigating.

Firstly, the adoption of applications and features designed to support digital wellbeing. 

Secondly, the factors that influence the continued use of such applications.

And, thirdly, the effects users perceive these applications to have on their digital wellbeing. 

The article highlights the perceived effects of these applications on their users, such as the improvements in their overall well-being, and identifies the challenges of these apps where improvements are needed.
