Internet use and developmental tasks: Adolescents’ point of view

This study explored adolescents’ opinions about how Internet use supports the achievement of their developmental tasks. Qualitative data were collected in focus groups interviews with 127 Italian Internet users (11–20) attending middle and high schools. Discussions were recorded, transcribed and analyzed using content analysis. Results showed that the Internet plays important functions in identity formation, personal autonomy, and relationships outside the family. It allows teens to develop their own interests, to identify with others and, at the same time, differentiate from others. The Internet is also an arena in which adolescents develop and practice autonomy. The Internet can be a source of conflict with parents, because of parents’ concerns about Internet use. However, the Internet can also be a meeting ground with parents. Finally, participants indicated the Internet is used to form close relationships with peers. Gender and age differences are discussed. Although the study is cross-sectional and relies only on adolescent report, findings illustrate how the conceptual framework of developmental goals may be helpful for understanding how the Internet can affect adolescents’ lives.     

Gender differences in vegetarian identity: How men and women construe meatless dieting

Meat is deeply associated with masculine identity. As such, it is unsurprising that women are more likely than men are to become vegetarian. Given the gendered nature of vegetarianism, might men and women who become vegetarian express distinct identities around their diets? Through two highly powered preregistered studies (Ns = 890 and 1775) of self-identified vegetarians, combining both frequentist and Bayesian approaches, I found that men and women differ along two dimensions of vegetarian identity: (1) dietary motivation and (2) dietary adherence. Compared to vegetarian men, vegetarian women reported that they are more prosocially motivated to follow their diet and adhere to their diet more strictly (i.e., are less likely to cheat and eat meat). By considering differences in how men and women construe vegetarian dieting, investigators can generate deeper insights into the gendered nature of eating behavior.     

Relationships between identity formation and computer use among black and white emerging adult females

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between computer use, identity formation, and self-esteem among Black and White emerging adult females. One hundred 56 female college students participated in this study by completing a survey that included the Internet/Computer Use Questionnaire, the Ego Identity Process Questionnaire, and the Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale. Racial differences were found between Black and White females with regard to perceived problematic use of the Internet and use of the computer for communication and use of the Internet for schoolwork. In addition, differences between Black and White females were found between identity formation and problematic use of the Internet and between self-esteem and type of use of the Internet. These findings were discussed in relation to future research and interventions.

The psychological functions of avatars and alt(s): A qualitative study

Prior research has shown that approximately 50% of active participants in the 3D virtual world of Second Life have one or more secondary avatars or “alts” in addition to their primary avatar. Thus, these individuals are operating a “multiple or poly-identity system” composed of a physical self, a primary avatar, and one or more alts. However, little is known about the functions these virtual identities serve for the virtual-world user. The current study involved qualitative analysis of semistructured interviews with Second Life participants (N = 24) who had a primary avatar and at least one alt. Interviews were coded to examine the functions that primary avatars and alts served. Eight functions—seven suggested by previous research on virtual world identity and one that emerged from analyses—were reflected in a large majority of the transcribed interviews and are described in the article. The current findings add to our understanding of how multifaceted identity systems operate, as more individuals augment their physical self with a set of virtual identities.     

面向移动平台的新型身份认证方案设计

各种类型的移动平台如智能手机、平板电脑、嵌入式系统快速普及,并渗透到生活和工作的方方面面,但是移动平台在带给大家丰富多彩的应用和方便快捷的生活的同时,也带来了许多新的安全问题。身份认证和接入认证是保护移动平台的第一道屏障。结合多点触控技术、重力感应技术和图形密码,设计、开发了适用于移动平台的几种身份认证方案,包括绘制曲线认证方案、图像选择认证方案、多点指划认证方案和重力感应认证方案。所设计的方案较之单纯的口令式密码,设置口令和验证口令直观方便,通过简单的操作即可产生较大的密钥空间。经分析,所提方案操作方便,安全性较高。     

基于信任的云计算身份管理模型设计与实现

随着云计算的发展,身份管理问题已经引起业界高度关注。基于群签名的身份认证机制保证了云服务提供者不能通过外包的数据回溯用户的身份信息,并广泛应用于云计算环境的身份管理中,但它无法阻止恶意用户对云服务的非法访问。针对此不足,改进了现有的身份管理模型,将信任管理与群签名机制相结合,设计了基于信任的身份管理模型。本模型首先计算用户信任度并将其作为群签名分组的依据,再利用群签名机制实现用户认证,在应用中既能保证用户隐私,又能帮助云计算提供者保护资源。实验结果表明,本模型能有效识别恶意用户,帮助云服务提供者阻止恶意用户对资源的访问。
