Second-screen refers to the use of a secondary device, such as a smartphone or tablet, while engaging with primary media content on a television or computer. This phenomenon enhances viewer interaction, facilitates social engagement, and provides supplementary information, thereby influencing the overall media consumption experience.

Key research themes

1. How does second screen use vary among different demographic groups, particularly Generation Z, and what motivates their second screen behaviors?

This research area investigates the prevalence of second screen use, the types of devices and TV content involved, and the underlying motivations for this behavior among specific population groups, especially Generation Z. Understanding demographic-specific usage patterns and motivations informs media producers and advertisers about engagement strategies and content design to better cater to target audiences.

Key finding: Surveying Turkish Generation Z university students revealed that smartphones are the most commonly used second screen devices alongside TV viewing, with music programs being the most frequent complementary content.... Read more
Key finding: This work corroborates Generation Z's preference for smartphones as second screen devices and highlights thematic program coupling—music programs are most paired with second screen use, with gender differences in motivations:... Read more
Key finding: A large-scale diary study of the Dutch population quantified multiscreening prevalence, showing nearly 60% engaged in the behavior at least once, averaging three days a week and over 80 minutes per multiscreen session, mostly... Read more

2. What are the interaction challenges and design implications of multi-display environments, including mobile devices with multiple screens, for seamless user experience?

This theme addresses how multiple displays—whether fixed large tiled screens, mobile devices with heterogeneous displays, or projection-phones—impact user interaction, visual perception, and performance. It focuses on the architectural, technological, and ergonomic challenges in managing inputs, cursor movement, and visual continuity across screens, exploring how to mitigate negative visual separation effects and enable effective content sharing and collaboration in multi-display contexts.

Key finding: Using an innovative eye-tracking methodology, the study demonstrated that visual separation does not significantly impair usability in mobile multi-display environments (MMDEs). It found that displays ideally reside within... Read more
Key finding: The authors propose a middleware architecture that integrates heterogeneous displays with different angles and resolutions into a seamless virtual plane perceived perpendicularly by users. By combining distributed input and... Read more
Key finding: The work introduces novel interaction techniques—clutching and layer-switching—for a projection-phone prototype. Through clutching, users scroll virtual images larger than the projection area by controlling projection... Read more
Key finding: This article presents a comprehensive control framework combining the N-Screen User Interface Management Server, Digital Signage Management Server, and Localized Content and Session Management Agent to dynamically adapt and... Read more

3. How does second screen use reshape audience engagement and media consumption patterns during live media events and sports viewing?

Research in this domain explores how multitasking with second screens affects audience attention, engagement, and media consumption during live broadcasts of news events and sports. It investigates the interaction between primary media (TV) and secondary devices, the integrative or substitutive roles of second screens, and the emergent textual or social modalities that complement audiovisual content, aiming to understand audience practices, motivations, and the social experience in hybrid and multiscreen viewing contexts.

Key finding: By comparing audience video news consumption during a media event week and a subsequent ordinary week via smartphone diaries, the study found significantly greater news viewing and higher proportions of second-screening... Read more
Key finding: Analyzing detailed video news consumption profiles of 110 participants revealed that only a minority adhere to traditional, single-platform news viewing. Most audience members engage with diverse platforms, multitasking and... Read more
Key finding: Survey data from Nigerian football fans showed that live text commentary is used supplementary to TV and radio broadcasts in real time, with motivations primarily utilitarian (e.g., access limitations, immediate updates).... Read more
Key finding: Through discourse analysis of a Swedish web-TV football webcast, this study reveals a shift from traditional formal broadcast interaction to an informal, spontaneous, and interactive 'backstage' style of audience address.... Read more
