incorporating newdigital tools into their everyday lives. Recent data reports that Canadians spend an average of 6hours and 18 minutes per day using digital technology [1]. Additionally, as the use of digitaltechnologies becomes more pervasive and multifaceted, it blurs the boundaries betweenindividuals’ personal, academic, and professional lives. This convergence makes it increasinglydifficult to disconnect and decompress, which may perpetuate a cycle of digital dependency [2].These patterns of high digital engagement raise important questions about how individuals relateto technology in their daily lives, and whether those relationships are sustainable. In response tothese challenges, the concept of digital wellness has emerged as a framework for

We use this metric to estimatewhich side of the spectrum, societies of different historical periods fall and to what degree.The Supercilious AttitudeThe supercilious attitude is held by those that have a low opinion of the common person. It holdsthat the common person cannot understand, apply, and/or assimilate modern science, technology,or sociopolitical philosophies. The implications are that the common person cannot properlyperceive and interpret modern events and circumstances and therefore should not have an equalparticipation in governance. This attitude holds that: • The common person cannot assimilate sensational information without fear or being given to wild extrapolations. • The common person

Emerging generative AI(genAI) technologies offer the potential to scale these traditionally resource-intensive qualitative approaches.For example, AI-powered natural language processing tools can assist in coding and analyzing open-endedresponses from interviews or concept maps, significantly reducing the time and effort required for manualanalysis []. These systems can identify patterns, themes, and relationships within qualitative data with highaccuracy, enabling researchers to process larger datasets without sacrificing depth or nuance[65] .Moreover, genAI tools can facilitate real-time feedback during qualitative assessments, such as automaticallygenerating follow-up questions

For example, severalsolutions produced factors in which a number of conceptually disparate items were linkedtogether. Solutions with 1-4 factors lumped together a large amount of information, and thefactors are not distinguishable.
