dc.type.dcmiText
dcterms.abstractThe widespread use of information technology has led to undesirable consequences, particularly in the form of IT addiction. Despite recent attention to corrective behaviors that counter IT addiction, a process-based longitudinal overview of IT addiction recovery is still lacking. A process model of IT addiction recovery was developed based on qualitative narrative data obtained from interviews and published blogs and Bandura’s theory of self-regulation as the baseline. It highlights the four stages of observing, assessing, adjusting, and reflecting, through which recovery efforts unfold gradually. In each stage, essential elements underlying successful completion and advancement to the next stage, particularly those that are related to IT artifact, are identified. The findings provide a richer understanding of the IT addiction recovery process and carry important implications for users who struggle with IT addiction, designers, and industry regulators.
