People acknowledge that mobile technology has improved their lives in terms of convenience, flexibility, connectedness, and new freedom of choice. However, as people increase usage of technology, they may become frustrated, challenged, annoyed, and irritated with it. This is the main characteristic of mobile technology paradoxes. Once technology gets into people's daily life, which it already has, people will look for a way to minimize the dependency on the technology, as well as finding a way to use the technology to improve the quality of their life. The focus of this study is to understand the mobile technology paradoxes and to develop coping strategies. As mobile technology is already a part of people's daily life, it is inevitable that people need to utilize technology as part of their lifestyles. This study developed a research model regarding the relationship between mobile technology perception and choice of coping strategies, including personal risk propensity as a mediating factor. Discussion on the importance of the technology paradoxes for developing mobile solution and services from the customers' perspectives followed after hypotheses testing.

Despite the existing body of literature focusing on the effects of one-to-one mobile technology integration in teaching and learning, research discussed that the determinants of mobile technology acceptance and use in secondary school settings are still unclear. Hence, this study examined the extent to which determinants influence high school students' behavioral intention to use one-to-one mobile technology for learning. The newly proposed model incorporated three additional constructs beyond those in the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) model, including computer self-efficacy, attitude toward using technology and computer anxiety, as suggested by recent literature. Data were collected from 247 U.S. Midwestern high school students who participated in an online survey. Using a structural equation modeling approach, this study established construct validity for the nine-construct extended UTAUT model to assess high school students' intention to use mobile technology. The results of structural relations in the proposed model showed that their behavioral intention to use mobile technology was significantly predicted by social influence and attitude toward using technology. Also, their strong behavioral intention and facilitating conditions were associated with frequent use of mobile technology in learning. Discussion, implications, and conclusion were addressed in this study.

As mobile Technology came into people's everyday life the conflicts between users' expectation on the mobile technology and real performance has increased. These kind of conflict as far as technology concerned, are called 'technology paradox' and have been studied by few researchers. The discussion on mobile technology paradox could be critical to understand users' mobile technology usage behavior because when users perceive the paradox they are supposed to choose a coping strategy. another factor regarding the perception of paradox and coping strategy the culture should be considered. Thus this paper developed a measurement for mobile technology perception and empirically tested based on survey result from Korea and U.S.A. The analysis clearly shows that there are substantial differences in perceiving technology paradox and choosing the coping strategy between Korean users and American users.

Mobile technology appears promising as a method to promote group performance in circumstances dependent on time, but not member proximity. However, the success of mobile technology in group decision-making situations has not yet been proven. This paper aims to see how mobile technology affects the performance of group decision-making tasks that should be resolved urgently and/or sources of idea are disconnected with on-line network. Laboratory experiment was used to investigate the effects of mobile factors on group decision-making. The results from the experiment supported the proposition that pressures of time and location play a significant role in the assessment of group decision performance measures. We found that the adoption of mobile technology to group decision-making procedures might be competitive when group decision-making tasks are urgent and sources of idea are disconnected with on-line network, even though mobile technology is not a panacea on which to depend when designing group decision-making.
