This study is based on a large-scale project examining mobile phone use among young Latinos in six different countries: Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, the United States, and Uruguay. Following the uses and gratifications tradition as a theoretical framework, researchers used a two-stage research design involving both qualitative and quantitative research methodologies to analyze how young adult Latinos use their mobile phones, and the perceived gratifications obtained from their use and comparisons to other forms of technology. A total of 1,320 subjects were surveyed across the six countries, yielding a rich data set that is only partially examined in this particular paper. The results indicate similarities and differences among the six counties and offers both theoretical and practical findings, as well as suggestions for future research and investigation.

The objective of this study is to determine validity and reliability of the Mobile Phone Dependency Test (CPDT), in a 22 items Likert scale-based instrument. The Test was administered to two samples, a public university (N=1044) and a private university (N=356) in the Peruvian city of Arequipa. Validity was determined using an exploratory factor analysis. Three factors were identified: abstinence and tolerance (α=0,901), abuse and problems with impulse control (α=0,853), and problems with excessive mobile phone use (α=0,853). Additionally, percentile ranks were created for both public and private universities.

Sexual objectification is one of the ways young people socialize on social media and has become a challenge in digital child and adolescent protection due to its impact on sexual maturity and self-esteem. This research aims to understand the perceptions of both experts and young people regarding sexual socialization, as well as the motivations behind adolescents' use of sexual content they consume and/or exchange on social media. The methodology consisted of 14 semi-structured interviews with experts and a survey conducted with 421 adolescents who participated in digital sexual education workshops between 2022 and 2024. The results show that experts identify approval—through sexual display—as a key factor in adolescents' use of social media. However, most young people do not perceive a risk in using social media to send nude images of their bodies, either for themselves or others, as...

Aware of the unstoppable advance of localization and its influence on the translation industry, this paper aims at providing a mobile application localization module for the translator curriculum. With this goal in mind, we describe the teaching module conducted with 24 undergraduate translator trainees as part of the Localization course (Degree in Modern Languages and Translation, University of Alcalá, Spain). Following a socio-constructivist methodology, qualitative data were collected via a group session and a questionnaire, which allowed evaluating the teaching proposal. Upon examination of the results, we can state that the main challenges are related to linguistic and technical issues and that their training is a must if we want our students to be ready for what comes ahead.

Cell phone (mobile) has become part of the daily life of young people and its use continues to expand, being used every time at a younger age. At the same time, the use of the cell phone can become a distraction when it is used too much for entertainment purposes, especially when it competes with the time that should be spent on reading and doing homework. Therefore, this study tried to establish whether there was a relationship between cell phone use, habits and attitudes towards reading and its influence on academic performance in middle-level students of the Mariano Moreno Adventist Institute, in the city of Posadas, Misiones (Argentina), in the school year 2018. The study was cross-sectional, correlational and quantitative. To measure the use of the cell phone, the Mobile Dependency Test (TDM) was used; Attitudes and habits towards reading were valued with the HAL questionnaire, and ...
