Many people struggle to control their use of digital devices. However, our understanding of the design mechanisms that support user self-control remains limited. In this paper, we make two contributions to HCI research in this space: first, we analyse 367 apps and browser extensions from the Google Play, Chrome Web, and Apple App stores to identify common core design features and intervention strategies afforded by current tools for digital self-control. Second, we adapt and apply an integrative dual systems model of self-regulation as a framework for organising and evaluating the design features found. Our analysis aims to help the design of better tools in two ways: (i) by identifying how, through a well-established model of self-regulation, current tools overlap and differ in how they support self-control; and (ii) by using the model to reveal underexplored cognitive mechanisms that could aid the design of new tools.

Increased Risk

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with increased risk for polydrug use. Low self-control is a key characteristic of the disorder and is predictive of polydrug use. However, there is a dearth of research focused on the relevance of a dual systems model delineation of self-control into the constructs of risk-seeking and impulsivity as it pertains to polydrug use and PTSD. This study tested dual systems mediation of this relationship. Generalized structural equation modeling was used to test for mediation effects. Results indicated that more PTSD symptoms predicted increased drug use variety (coefficient = 0.024; confidence interval [CI] = [0.001, 0.046]). Inclusion of dual systems constructs fully attenuated this relationship. The total indirect effect achieved marginal significance (coefficient = 0.005; CI = [>−0.001, 0.009]). Sensitivity analyses of the specific indirect effect of impulsivity as the sole mediator indicated significant mediation. These results provide some indication that impulsivity-based programming may help to treat polydrug use among those with severe PTSD.

The Relationship

Social learning theory is one of the most prominent criminological theories of the 20th century. The dual systems model represents an emerging framework in recent years, which may help to better understand how social learning processes are influenced by sensation-seeking and impulse control. This study utilized data from all waves of the Pathways to Desistance study. A series of mixed-effects models were utilized to test for moderating effects of these constructs on offending outcomes. Impulse control moderated the relationship between deviant peer association and offending frequency, indicating that high levels of both constructs predicted increased offending frequency. Sensation-seeking moderated the relationship between deviant peer association and odds of offending, indicating that high levels of both constructs were associated with greater odds of offending although this moderation effect was only marginally significant.

The popularization of ‘World City’ as an analytical concept dates to 1966. Taking up a term introduced fifty years earlier by Patrick Geddes, Peter Hall's now classic description ofThe World Citiesexplored the evolution of a handful of key urban areas from national into global roles and functions. The original emphasis on size and comprehensive economic functins has since been extended by the argument that a distinct class of global cities are a characteristic product of the technologies and economy of the late twentieth century. As well, such cities are thought to embrace common spatial forms that respond to a specific balance of centralizing and decentralizing tendencies in the location of commercial, financial, and manufacturing industries.

Abstract Introduction Sleep deprivation is a consistently and widely concerning problem among adolescents. Although a few models have been proposed to explain the relationships and pathways through which factors influence sleep in adolescents, there are lack of theoretical models that apply both biological and behavioral factors that contribute to sleep deprivation across the trajectory of adolescent development. The current study proposes an integrated model that draws upon constructs from several influential theories with an aim to re-conceptualize factors associated with sleep deprivation as a chronic and cyclic problem that emerges from biological and behavioral changes in youth. Methods The Two Process Model of Sleep Regulation, Spielman’s 3p model, the theory of planned behavior, dual systems model, and sleep health framework are used to develop an integrated model of factors that lead to sleep deprivation in adolescents. Results The resulting integrated model highlights the importance of adolescent’s inherent nature of delayed sleep phase at pubertal onset (two process model); increased reward-seeking that precedes the structural maturation of their cognitive control and emotions (dual systems model); and their attitudes/perceptions towards sleep (theory of planned behavior), which is often geared toward not prioritizing sleep. Sleep health framework adequately frames the pattern of sleep-wakefulness in adolescents using a multidimensional approach of sleep. Moreover, the new model presents contextual factors (Spielman’s 3p model) and the way that these constructs interact in order to maintain a vicious cycle of insufficient sleep which leads to chronic sleep deprivation. Conclusion The current model portrays a wide-ranging view of mechanisms underlying sleep deprivation among adolescence by integrating both biological and behavioral aspects. The model is proposed to encourage researchers to explore these conceptual elements of biological and neurobiological changes, and behavioral problems in order to operationalize relevant measures to relate the concepts to sleep deprivation and subsequent health outcomes in adolescents.
