Investigating what leads to risky driving, like mental health disorders such as depressed mood and alcohol abuse, is important for implementing interventions that help limit road traffic crashes. Dr. Nevicia Case discusses the findings from her most recent study that examined the mental health disorders and driving behaviours over time of individuals with previous driving under the influence offences.

    4. Digital Feudalism with Dr. Cheney-Lippold

    Dr. John Cheney-Lippold is an assistant professor at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, USA. His work uses a variety of philosophical concepts to provide an ontological review of the intersections between commercial and domestic surveillance, identity profiling, cultural participation, and the processes of becoming. [1] Dr Cheney-Lippold’s concept Algorithmic Identity illustrates how the intensity of identity profiling in commercial surveillance practices curates an identity based sense of reality for digital technology users. [2] Dr Cheney-Lippold reflects this new mode of media distribution that utilizes data to target identity categories deserves significant ontological considerations.

    3. Smartphone and Social Media Addiction with Dr. Hannah Mieczkowski

    Hannah Mieczkowski is a recent PhD graduate in Psychology at Stanford University, USA. Hannah’s research epistemologically challenges knowledge claims made by social media researchers.[1] Hannah suggests that problematic smartphone use may be symptomatic of pre-existing mental health conditions that an individual pacifies through smartphone use.

    2. What are you and what can you be? Symbolic Interactionism, Agency, and Bad Faith Politics with Dr. Alan Sears

    Dr Alan Sears is a Professor of Sociology at Toronto Metropolitan University, Toronto, Canada. He can speak with authority on sociological concepts that aid in illustrating the Cycles in Algorithmic Cultivation concept, such as agency and symbolic interactionism. Both of these concepts are important in aiding considerations about algorithmic cultivation. Symbolic interactionism is a theoretical framework that explains how cultures are formed through groups of values and behaviours that constitute a symbolic world. [1]  Symbolic interactionism is also concerned with how the range of symbols within a culture demands performative behaviours for cultural inclusion, and how these demands influence the behavior of individuals. [2] Symbolic interactionism can be a useful tool for highlighting the vitally structural characteristics of a culture and the range of behaviours that mandate inclusion. [1] Peter M. Hall, “Symbolic Interaction,”  in The Blackwell Encyclopedia of Sociology, ed. George Ritzer (Oxford, UK: John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2016), 1–5, https://doi.org/10.1002/9781405165518.wbeoss310.pub2.
