Enhancing Digital Well-Being in The Era of Hyperconnectivity: A Psychological Perspective

Abstract

This hermeneutic study examines how digital well-being can be strengthened in the era of hyperconnectivity through psychological theories and value transformation. As digital interactions increasingly dominate daily life, individuals face heightened risks of techno-stress, cognitive overload, digital fatigue, and emotional dysregulation. The study used hermeneutic text analysis to interpret psychological literature in cyberpsychology, self-regulation theory, cognitive load theory, and positive psychology. The results indicate that digital well-being can be developed through psychological literacy, emotional regulation training, value-based digital habits, and mindful technology use. These strategies can be implemented systematically within educational settings and community environments to promote healthier digital behavior.
