CHILDREN AND MOBILE PHONES: ADOPTION, USE, IMPACT, AND CONTROL
Book ID/图书代码： 04331419C00071
English Summary/英文概要： This book provides a resource for readers interested in the issues surrounding mobile phone use by children. Mobile phones are ubiquitous in young people’s lives around the world. Most teenagers and many pre-teenage children have their own mobile phone and carry it around everywhere they go. While the mobile phone remains an important communication device for making and receiving voice calls, technological advances have evolved the typical device far beyond simple functionality. Recent models are multi-functional mini-computers with ever-increasing power that enable users to communicate through a range of channels and to engage in multiple other activities.
For many young people, life without their mobile phone is unimaginable, but mobile phones can be a source of risk and threat. Understanding how they are used and highlighting potential dangers is an essential activity to enable the creation of sensible and acceptable strategies to ensure that benefits are maximised and risks are minimised. Stakeholders such as parents, industry, regulators, government and children themselves all have vested interests in how children use mobile phones and bear some responsibility for young mobile users.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 这本书为对儿童使用手机相关问题感兴趣的读者提供了一个阅读资源。手机在世界各地的年轻人生活中无处不在。大多数青少年和许多未成年的孩子都有自己的手机，无论走到哪里都随身携带。虽然移动电话仍然是进行和接收语音呼叫的重要通信设备，但技术进步已经使这些设备远远超出了简单的功能。最近的型号可以被视作多功能微型计算机，其功率不断增加，使用户能够通过一系列渠道进行交流，并参与多种其他活动。
对许多年轻人来说，没有手机的生活是不可想象的，但手机也有可能成为风险和威胁的来源。了解如何使用它们并突出潜在的危险是非常重要的，这有助于制定明智和可接受的方案，以确保优点最大化和风险最小化。家长、行业、监管机构、政府和儿童本身等利益相关者都对儿童如何使用手机有既得利益，并对年轻手机用户承担一定责任。（YYW）
