CEP TELEFONU KULLANICILARININ DEMOGRAFİK ÖZELLİKLERİNİN CİHAZ KULLANIMINDA ETKİSİ VAR MIDIR?

Bu çalışmada, cep telefonu kullanıcının cinsiyeti, yaşı, işi, eğitimi, siber güvenlik bilgisi ve geçmişi, demografik özellikleri olarak değerlendirilmiştir; bu özellikler, cihazdaki işletim sistemi ve kullanıcının iş verisi ve/veya belgesini cihazda taşıma davranışı kapsamında incelenmiştir. 153 gönüllüden oluşan kolay ulaşılabilir durum örnekleme kümesine, yapısal bir anket uygulanmış ve Ki-Kare testleri yapılmıştır. Birincil bulgular göstermiştir ki telefonda iş verisi/belgesi tutma davranışı, demografik özellikleri açısından sadece kullanıcının cep telefonuyla olan geçmişiyle tekdüze bir görüntü vermektedir. Daha zayıf bir ilişki de kullanıcının cep telefonu geçmişiyle cihazın işletim sistemi arasında çıkmıştır. Kullanıcının siber güvenlik bilgisinin ve eğitiminin, ilginç bir şekilde, cihazda iş verisi/belgesi tutma davranışıyla ilgisi çıkmamıştır. Kullanıcının cep telefonu geçmişinin uzun olması, cihazda iş verisi/belgesi tutma davranışını ve cihaz seçimini daha ayırt edilebilir hale getirmektedir.

DO THE DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS OF MOBILE PHONE USERS PLAY A ROLE IN USAGE?

Gender, age, work, education, history and cyber security knowledge are chosen as the demographic characteristics of the user; these are investigated in the scope of the operating system of the mobile phone and the behavior of the user to keep b data/document on his/her device. A convenience sampling of 153 volunteers has been conducted through a structured survey and ChiSquare tests are performed. Primary findings reveal that storing business data/document behavior shows uniform figures only in terms of the history of the participants. A weaker relationship exists between history and the O/S of the handset participant. Particularly, the cyber security knowledge and the education of the user shows no or insignificant relation to the behavi or of keeping business data/documents. The longer the history the participant has with the mobile phone, the more distinguishing his/her behavior in holding business data/document on the handset and selecting handset can be.
