摘要
As mobile phones become increasingly ubiquitous, the functional capacity of the mobile phone continues to diversify. Ownership and use of the mobile are most prevalent in young people. A survey of 218 university students, aged 18 years and over, is reported. Three questionnaires were developed to find out about mobile phone use. These were followed up with interviews. It is found that the mobile phone is an integral tool in the everyday life of young people with many advantages relating to use. These are discussed with reference to information that is communicated by calling or texting. However, a level of caution in use is recommended due to concerns expressed by participants.
