Synopsis
A new survey by the American Psychological Association indicates that more than four out of five adults in the United States -- some 86 percent -- say they constantly or often check their email, texts and social media accounts. The APA says this attachment to devices and the constant use of technology is associated with higher stress levels. Guest: Jeremy Stevenson is a clinical assistant professor in the Department of Family Medicine and Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the University of Kansas Medical Center. Perspective is a weekly public affairs program hosted by Richard Baker, communications professor at Kansas State University. Perspective has been continuously produced for public radio stations by K-State since the mid-1970s and has included interviews with dignitaries, authors and thought leaders from around the world.
