Abstract

In Japan, the use of mobile devices has been spreading rapidly and continues to grow. However, this causes many problems that no one predicted. This article describes the use of mobile devices as well as issues related to their use in Japan. The authors will discuss these issues regarding the three aspects of “sharing of information and emotions in emergent disasters,” “addictive use of mobile devices,” and “cyberbullying in young people,” and will introduce representative psychological researches in Japan. At the end of this article, the actions and directions necessary to address these issues will be discussed.
