Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between memory, emotions evoked through smartphone photographs, and smartphone attachment. Specifically, it examines the effects of the level autobiographical memory is induced through photos on smartphone attachment and how this relationship is influenced according to the emotions induced through these photos. An experiment was conducted on 17 individuals 22-37 years old. Each participant was asked to select a photo from their smartphone that caused the strongest emotions and was asked to write a memory induced by the photo in about 200 characters. The participant then measured their emotions for the selected photo and responded to a questionnaire about memory and mobile attachment. As a result, it was confirmed that valence regulates the relationship between autobiographical memory and smartphone attachment. In particular, it has been shown that when emotions are unpleasant, they induce strong smartphone attachment with higher levels of autobiographical memory.
