摘要

En 中文
This study explores how British South Asian parents perceive their children's technology consumption through their collectivist lenses and interdependent values. The findings for this qualitative study indicate that second and third generation South Asian parents acknowledge the benefits of children's technology use; but largely perceive technology as a disruptive agent, whereby children are becoming isolated and increasingly independent within the household. The analysis aims to understand how parents view their children's relationship with others as a result of technology consumption. Accordingly, this paper proposes an extension of theConstrual of self conceptualisationand contributes aTechno-construal matrixthat establishes a dyadic connection between technology consumption and cultural values. Overall, the study reveals that children display less inter-reliance and conformance typically associated with collectivist cultures, resulting from their technology use. Consequently, parents interpret their children's shift from interdependence to more independence as a disruptive and unsettling phenomenon within the household.
