论文摘要
除了成为世界上最大的社交网络外，Facebook还是许多人最大的数字干扰来源之一。对于学生来说，有问题的使用与对学术成就和一般福祉的负面影响有关。为了了解哪些策略可以帮助用户重新获得控制，我们研究了Facebook UI的简单干预如何影响行为和感知控制的控制。我们将58名大学生分配给三种干预措施之一：目标提醒，删除新闻源或白色背景（控制）。我们记录了6周的使用，在中期进行了干预，并进行了两周的调查。这两个目标提醒和删除新闻源都可以帮助参与者继续执行任务并避免分心。但是，目标提醒常常很烦人，而删除新闻提要则使人们感到害怕错过了信息。我们的发现指出了未来的干预措施，例如调整可用信息类型和数量的控件，以及与“分心”的个体定义相匹配的灵活阻止。
Beyond being the world's largest social network, Facebook is for many also one of its greatest sources of digital distraction. For students, problematic use has been associated with negative effects on academic achievement and general wellbeing. To understand what strategies could help users regain control, we investigated how simple interventions to the Facebook UI affect behaviour and perceived control. We assigned 58 university students to one of three interventions: goal reminders, removed newsfeed, or white background (control). We logged use for 6 weeks, applied interventions in the middle weeks, and administered fortnightly surveys. Both goal reminders and removed newsfeed helped participants stay on task and avoid distraction. However, goal reminders were often annoying, and removing the newsfeed made some fear missing out on information. Our findings point to future interventions such as controls for adjusting types and amount of available information, and flexible blocking which matches individual definitions of 'distraction'.
