Big data methodologies allowed to uncover underlying thoughts and feelings about young children’s use of smart devices that had not been discovered in existing studies. The study extracted raw data from three different groups: the public, the journalist, and academia. Then, the study conducted keyword frequency, sentiment analysis, and CONCOR analysis with UCINET 6.0. The results of the study revealed that each group viewed young children’s use of smart devices in a different way. The public was interested in effective use of smart devices while the journalist focused on educational aspects. The academia focused on parents’ perception of smart devices from a developmental perspective. Regarding the results of sentiment analysis, they showed that each group had different opinion on young children’s use of smart devices. The public had an ambivalent attitude toward young children’suse of smart devices. While the journalist showed a positively inclined attitude, the academic had a negatively inclined attitude.\u003Cbr>Keywords: big data methodologies, smart devices, social perceptions, young children |\n| --- | --- |\n| INTRODUCTION |  |\n\nSmart devices have already profoundly altered the culture of young children’s lifestyle as well as the society. As smart devices transformed children from passive receivers of media to active users, people’s attitudes and perceptions toward smart devices have been also transformed. The situation is not much different in South Korea, known as a fairly strong IT country. In South Korea, 70% of young children start using smart devices before reaching one-year-old (Yang, 2019), and previous studies reported social perceptions of use of smart devices among young children are mixed. Some are concerned while others regard smart devices as a learning tool; many have viewed smart devices effective only with appropriate guidance (Gil & Lee, 2016; Kim, 2013; Ryu, 2014) . Social perception refers to the socially constructed perception of a particular group formed by politics, culture, socialization, history, media, literature, and religion (Kim & An, 2006). That is, social perception describes how one recognizes and understands social information and feelings about a particular topic. In order to conduct studies that are meaningful and effective, the exploration of the social perceptionson the topic should be proceeded to meet the social demands and awareness. Thus, this study investigated  \nthe social perceptions of young children’s use of smart devices in South Korea. The study could provide some insights into young children’s use of smart devices that can be implemented in the field of mathematics, science, and technology education.  \nYoung children using smart devices have been increased worldwide (Donnelly, 2019; Ducharme, 2017) . Abroad array of previous literature documented that using smart devices allowed young children get access to abundan","cbCainh0pNQEurhJ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainh0pNQEurhJ","pdf",643804,11,"English","# ABSTRACT\n# INTRODUCTION\n## Smart devices and young children in South Korea\n## Social perception and stakeholders\n## Need for big data methodologies","[{\"question\":\"What was the main goal of the study?\",\"answer\":\"To investigate social perceptions of young children’s use of smart devices in South Korea using big data methodologies.\"},{\"question\":\"Which three groups provided the data for the analysis?\",\"answer\":\"The public, the journalist, and academia.\"},{\"question\":\"What methods were used to analyze perceptions and opinions?\",\"answer\":\"Keyword frequency, sentiment analysis, and CONCOR analysis using UCINET 6.0.\"},{\"question\":\"How did sentiment results differ across groups?\",\"answer\":\"The public showed an ambivalent attitude, the journalist group had a positively inclined attitude, and academia showed a negatively inclined attitude.\"}]","The social perceptions of young children’s use of smart devices in South Korea - Evidence from big data methodologies | PDF",1792090382,28]
