  abstract  = {The rising use of new media has given rise to public discussions about their possible negative consequences. The social sciences have answered these concerns, providing many studies investigating different media types (e.g., social media, video games) and different related variables (e.g., psychological well-being, academic achievement). Within this big body of research, some research results have confirmed negative associations with frequent media use; other studies have found no or even positive relationships. With heterogeneous results, it is difficult to obtain a clear picture of the relationships and causalities of new media. The method of meta-analysis allows a synthesis of all existing data, providing an overall effect size as well as moderator and mediator analyses which might explain the heterogeneity. Three manuscripts present meta-analytic evidence related to a) the relationship between social media use and academic achievement, b) the relationship between video gaming and overweight, and c) the relationship between social media and psychological correlates. Manuscript \#1 found small relationships which depend on the usage pattern of social media. The relationship is positive, as long as social media use is related to school. Manuscript \#2 showed that children's and adolescents' video gaming is independent from their body mass, while adults who play more have a higher body mass. Manuscript \#3 summarized existing meta-analytic evidence that links social media with psychological wellbeing, academic achievement, and narcissism with small to moderate effect sizes. All three manuscripts underscore the potential of meta-analyses to synthesize previous research and to identify moderators. Although meta-analyses are not necessarily superior to other approaches because of their limitations (e.g. limited information or quality of primary studies) they are very promising for media psychology. Meta-analyses can reduce complexity and might be helpful for the communication of research results to the general public.},

  abstract  = {Humans have long used external memory aids to support remembering. However, modern digital technologies could facilitate recording and remembering personal information in an unprecedented manner. The present research sought to understand the potential impact of these technologies on autobiographical memory based on interviews with users of smart journaling apps. In Study 1 (N = 12), participants who had no prior experience with smart journaling apps tested the app Day One for 2 weeks and were interviewed about their subjective perceptions afterwards. In order to cross-validate the obtained findings, Study 2 (N = 4) was based on in-depth interviews with long-time users of different smart journaling apps. Taken together, the two studies provide insights into the way autobiographical remembering may change in the digital age - but also into the opportunities and risks potentially associated with the use of technologies that allow creating a detailed and multimedia-based record of one's life.},

  abstract  = {Der Einzug des Rechners in den Mathematikunterricht hat eine Vielzahl neuer M{\"o}glichkeiten der Darstellung mit sich gebracht, darunter auch multiple, dynamisch verbundene Repr{\"a}sentationen mathematischer Probleme. Die Arbeit beantwortet die Frage, ob und wie diese Repr{\"a}sentationsarten von Sch{\"u}lerinnen und Sch{\"u}ler in Argumentationen genutzt werden. In der empirischen Untersuchung wurde dabei einerseits quantitativ erforscht, wie groß der Einfluss der in der Aufgabenstellung gegebenen Repr{\"a}sentationsform auf die schriftliche Argumentationen der Sch{\"u}lerinnen und Sch{\"u}ler ist. Andererseits wurden durch eine qualitative Analyse spezifische Nutzungsweisen identifiziert und mittels Toulmins Argumentationsmodell beschrieben. Diese Erkenntnisse wurden genutzt, um Konsequenzen bez{\"u}glich der Verwendung von multiplen und/oder dynamischen Repr{\"a}sentationen im Mathematikunterricht der Sekundarstufe zu formulieren.},
