TL;DR: Information and communications technologies ICTs have enabled the rise of so-called "Collaborative Consumption" CC: the peer-to-peer-based activity of obtaining, giving, or sharing the access to go...

TL;DR: The results show that participation in CC is motivated by many factors such as its sustainability, enjoyment of the activity as well as economic gains, and suggest that in CC an attitude‐behavior gap might exist; people perceive the activity positively and say good things about it, but this good attitude does not necessary translate into action.

TL;DR: The results contribute to a more nuanced understanding of adoption of the emerging wearable technology in daily life and how users deal with the personal data by developing coping tactics, such as disregard, procrastination, selective attribution and neglect.

TL;DR: A multi-theoretical framework is established which enables the investigation of emerging phenomena of the role of numbers in social networking sites and departs from these convictions to investigate user reactions and behaviour when faced with numerical representations in the SNS.

TL;DR: This study approaches the adoption of wearables by looking at active and passive self-quantification online and explores how it may influence and support the user's cognitive processes and subsequent decision-making process.
